Game, Game of Thrones!

The last episode of Game of Thrones is next weekend, and a friend of mine wanted some cookies to have at their get together.  I originally wanted to print out images of all the characters and put them on the cookies, but Gloria's Cake and Candy Supply won't print out copy written images.  This made it very difficult to decide how to make GOT cookies. 

I started doing some research on the internet and I came across this image.

I thought this would make the perfect cookies.  I re-sized them to squares and I took off the house name, just in case they wouldn't print it if they recognized the names.

The first step is always to bake the cookies, obviously, and then put on the icing.  I just wanted to put a white base coat, since I knew the image was going to go on top.


I outlined all the cookies with white icing and then proceeded to fill them all in.








Once they were all done I let them dry over night.  It is always important to let your cookies dry completely before adding the edible image.

The next day I added the images.

Start with your dried cookie!

Next cut out your edible image!

Brush cookie with corn syrup and add image. Make sure to press from the middle out.

It is always difficult to deal with these icing sheet when the weather is warm.  Doing anything with icing is hard when the it is humid and hot.  These sheets are very delicate and can tear easily.

All images on cookies.

 The last thing I had to do was add the white border.  Here are a few pictures of the completed cookies.

 I hope you all enjoy the season finale of GOT next week!  I know I will!
