Bee Happy Cookies

Could these little cookies be any cuter? And the bees are so tiny (that's a luncheon plate in the picture) at less than 2 inches wing to wing. Everything has been outlined in black and then flooded with really thin glace. It is hard to see but all the stripes (on the hive and on the bee) were done in wet on wet. I hadn't really tried that before (successfully anyway) and really like how the stripes melt into the other icing with no dimension.

We lost all but two of our hives this last winter so these may be the only bees we will see until the new shipment comes in. Diana
