How To Decorate Cherry Baby Romper Cookies

Cookies decorated to look like baby rompers with a cherry pattern. The cookies have icing ruffles on the sleeves and in the middle, as well as lace detail along the collar. The cookies are sitting on a plate over a lace doily.

These cherry baby romper cookies were inspired by my 1 year old daughter’s adorable outfit (see the inspiration below!). Baby clothes are just the best. I think this design would be so cute as baby shower cookies!

Here’s my daughter wearing the outfit that inspired the cookie! 🙂

On the left is a baby sitting facing away from the camera wearing an outfit with a similar pattern to the one on the cookie.

Here’s what you’ll need to make these cherry baby romper cookies

Chilled sheet of cookie dough (my recipe is available in the tutorial shop)

Paring knife to trim the cookie if using the t-shirt cutter
Flood consistency royal icing in light teal, red, green, and white
Tipless decorating bags
12″ decorating bags
Coupler

Icing Colors (I used Chefmaster)

Light teal = Teal Green
Red = Tulip Red
Green = Leaf Green

I used the wet-on-wet technique to pipe the design on these cherry baby romper cookies. You do have to move pretty fast with the wet-on-wet technique, which is why I use extra meringue powder in my royal icing recipe to ensure that I have as much time as possible to work with the icing before it starts to crust over.
