Cakes can be expensive, fact. Especially when you want something that looks really different, unique, bespoke, and not “off the peg”…we’ve been thinking about this for a while in the kitchen, and so have come up with something that looks great, tastes delicious, can take the place of a cake, and even better, is a wee bit lighter on the pocket, than a traditionally decorated cake!

Cookie cake side

Its a honey oatmeal and raisin cookie base, filled with coloured buttercream icing…and its pretty yummy.

We score the top of each cookie, so that when it comes to serving it, its easy to cut into pieces and share…

The cookie recipe, and the colour and recipe of the filling are totally personalisable, and we’re working on some mini ones next! Prices start from £25, email us on bee@bees.jessepearson.net to order.

So we’ve been trying out a couple of new techniques in the kitchen, and these little cookies are some of the spoils…its just a prototype at the moment, but we quite like it!

mixed colour painted cookies

These are vanilla sugar dough cookies, topped with coloured fondant icing and then decorated by painting onto hand piped royal icing…kind of fiddly, and quite tricky to master, but we’re on the move with them!

I think the bright colours work pretty well, although the dark blue on this little beast gives a nice contrast with the silver shimmer too…

Inspiration was taken from an amazing cookie artist who’s based in upstate New York, called Amber Speigel - major credit where credit is due!
