Hello, when you guys have to make large batches of cookies, do you double or triple your cookie dough recipe? Or do you make the recipe as it is, but make it multiple times? I’ve tried making cookie dough in advance and freeze it. But, the truth is it doesn’t taste as good, as when I make the cookie dough fresh and bake the cookies within the next day or so. So, now I’m wondering if I have to make a big batch of cookies, can I triple my recipe to make the recipe individually three times. Silly question, I know. But sometimes you guys have the best advice.

I have so many cutters, and sometimes I forget I have similar ones. I was curious if there is an app or some other way to organize and track the cutters you own?

Hi all! I am a final year product design student who is seeking some information on the kinds of challenges or difficulties that arise when people do creative tasks at home. One of the areas that I am looking at in detail is baking and specifically people who do custom bakes, such as cookies, cupcakes etc. This could be just as a hobby, or as a profession, side-hustle etc. so if you have experiences that you feel might benefit my research, i'd really appreciate it if you could share!

I'm seeking to uncover the key baking related challenges that people are facing, and then delve into the root causes of why these issues arise. The end goal is to identify an opportunity for a product design intervention, where there is either a user need that isnt being met, or an existing solution that has key flaws which I could look to improve for my major project.

I hope you can answer my short survey (<5 min) if you had a bit of spare time! I would also be happy to post the results here if that is something you guys would be interested in :) You can find the link below.

Best wishes.

Hello all! I decorate cookies just for family and for fun but I’m looking to expand my abilities. I just purchased a smart sketcher projector to get started on wording and things of that nature. I really would like to now find a decently priced airbrush bc money is definitely, unfortunately an issue for me. Any advice or suggestions would be so helpful and wonderful. Thanks!!

Hi cookiers! I used The Sugar Art's Sterling Pearls for the first time on a set of pumpkin sugar cookies I made. I didn't use the color solution to paint, just buffed the dust onto the icing with a brush after crusting. I let the cookies dry overnight with a fan and packaged them up in individual cellophane bags the next morning.

When I delivered them later, some of the pearl dust had transferred off from the cookie to the inside of the bag :( I know it's not the end of the world but you could tell where there was dust missing, so I was kind of bummed. The icing wasn't damaged and I was pretty sure the cookies had fully dried.

Anyone else deal with this before or have advice on how to avoid it? TIA!

Hello all! I love this sub and am constantly spying on all of your amazing cookie successes! This is my third attempt at decorating and I’d love some constructive criticism!

My family is telling me that it looks professional, but I know from this sub that these cookies look very amateur. What can I focus on to make them look more professional? What tools/supplies would you recommend that have helped you succeed in making cookies?

Hey reddit! If you have Facebook, make sure you joing the Sugar Cookie Marketing Group, and the request to join the Vendy Blendy event.

What's the Vendy Blendy? It's a one day shopping extravaganza with giveaways and everything a baker could dream of. It's one day only, November 29 from midnight CST to midnight CST.

There are over 75 baking related vendors signed up and my shop is one of them! My goal is to sell enough to pay for family pictures. That's it. I'd love to see you there.

PS. Drop your cookie cutter wishlist in the comments. Please DM me if you want to know my shop name. I'm not trying to break any subreddit rules.

This is Super Red Americolor gel food coloring. I love how deep and vibrant it is, but I keep getting left with these little dark spots. They usually show up many hours into the drying process and continue to appear even after the icing is totally dry. They are definitely not air bubbles, and it only ever happens with this color. What is this and how do I avoid it in the future?

Is anyone else tempted to just skip Thanksgiving cookies altogether and go straight into Christmas?! 🙋🏼‍♀️🫠

I’m still offering a few Thanksgiving designs for sale, like this Pumpkin Pie Cookie Platter, but I’m super impatient and ready for all the Christmas cookies! 😅
