Another couple birthdays coming up, so I decided to make a dozen or so cookies to accompany the gifts. These were designed to go along with the story, Little Blue Truck by Alice Schertle, one of my son's favorites. I designed him using my wedding cake cookie cutter, since it already had a nice, boxy shape.
Although these cookies only required 4 different colors, they needed to be applied at specific times for drying and texture. I really like the front bumper that looks like a mustache and the tread on the tires.
By moving around the location of his pupils, it really changed his expression. He really is a friendly truck, and with the mustache, I worried that sometimes, he looked a little intimidating.
All in all, they ended up being a cute addition to the birthday gifts and another good excuse for me to play around in the kitchen.
