I thought about recreating my panda cookies from Valentine's Day 2015 (do you remember them?), but since i'm trying to move away from artificial colors, I decided to change the design and I made Teddy bear cookies for Valentine's Day instead!
The printable supply list, recipes, and instructions are available in the Cookie Art Club!

I used the same colors and icing consistencies that I used to decorate these Valentine's Day cookies that I shared a few weeks ago. All of these icing colors are made with natural food coloring from The Sugar Art.
I've had this teddy bear cookie cutter in my collection for many years and I can't find any evidence of it ever existing (aside from this one that I own 😆)!
This bear cookie cutter Foose is the closest one I coul find, but there are lots of other cute bear cookie cutter shapes out there that would work with this design.
Here's what you'll need to make these teddy bear cookies for Valentine's Day
