My son wanted Mario and my daughter wanted foxes. I thought my solution tying them together was clever, but no one at the party seemed sufficiently impressed.
edit: I should have specified, these are mini sandwiches, not cookies. The colors are from food dye markers.

This is awesome, definitely pushing the boundaries of dullsters.

I loooveee these! I'd have been so happy if my parents had done this

Sorry to hear that. I am impressed. My parents never put that much effort into anything like that for me.

My parents are great, and they did a lot for me, but they didn't put in any extra effort on things like birthdays.
I go all out for my kids' birthdays. Like for my daughter's third birthday, I transformed the house into Elsa's ice palace. I built the exterior out of cardboard and a roll of blue plastic tablecloth, two stories tall, hanging from our indoor balcony. Then I bathed the living in blue light, covered it in snowflake decorations, and turned the AC way down.

:O
You can make foxes or wolves from stars? The only cookie cutter set I have is also star shapes. This is useful info for me.

I was looking at the orange one, trying to figure out what it was. Then you said 'fox' and it all came together. Looks exactly like a face. Maybe a small line of icing on the edge of the sugar would help define it?

Is that sugar? It looks like it has the texture of sandwich + food marker
Edit: oop, refreshed the page and saw OP said that’s what it is

Those look amazing. What's in the layer in between?
moakley@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 1y
They're actually PB&J sandwiches. Kids party.
0ops@lemm.ee · 6 pts · 1y
OH. I didn't zoom in and thought they were sugar cookies. Still I could go for some pbj about now

Butter knife. Cut the two extra angles off, profit.
Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works · 4 pts · 1y
What extra angles? Foxes have ears and whiskers

Plus you get a ton of cookie scraps to eat
sweetgemberry@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 5 pts · 1y
I think that's bread not cookies. It looks like they're sandwiches cut into shape.
ech@lemm.ee · 3 pts · 1y
Mmmm, cookie scrap.
pseudo@jlai.lu · 5 pts · 1y
Well there are terrific! Not only are the design very pretty but the use of a single cookie cutter make it very smart.

They look awesome. Well done. I have to ask, because the texture is throwing me off. Are they mini sandwiches or cookies? The closer I look the less sure I am. Well done anyway. I could tell what they were right off the bat.
I just finished decorating a Mario cake last night for my child. It is safely in the freezer well in advance.
moakley@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 1y
They're peanut butter and jelly sandwiches with food dye marker on them.
I was planning to do cookies the same way, but ran out of time.
th3dogcow@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 1y
Cool! What a great idea!
ech@lemm.ee · 3 pts · 1y
Brilliant.

For when your son wants a Mario party and your daughter wants a Microsoft Visual FoxPro 7.0 party.

My last job (this year) is still actively developing in VFP. Yeah
LovableSidekick@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 1y
Pleasantly surprised that the themes were simply wolves and Mario and not two political dogwhistle codes I wasn't aware of.
Etterra@discuss.online · 2 pts · 1y
TIL that food dye comes in markers now.
moakley@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y
I'd just learned about it too. They were super easy to use. I'm going to have a lot of fun making my kids lunch.
