Julia stepped up the design of this 2-D stocking cookie by using both the background and message/frame stencil sets in her Christmas Stocking kit, part of her Kitchen Club Collection. The background set was used for the botanical print on
This 2-D stocking cookie is clearly on message with its always-appropriate greeting of “PEACE”. Not only that, but the message is “on cookie” as opposed to being airbrushed and stenciled on a separate fondant appliqué. One of the beauties of
Yes, you’ll want to take a long coffin break (pun intended!) just to admire these 3-D coffin cookies, a few of the many cookie projects possible with Julia’s September 2022 Kitchen Club project kit. Make these coffins as individual party
Let’s creep a bit closer to Julia’s 3-D coffins so you can ooh and aah over the expert airbrushing and stenciling on top. Made with Julia’s Halloween Coffin and Skeleton kit from her Kitchen Club Collection, these cookies look spookily
Look closely, and you’ll see that a precisely airbrushed and stenciled skeleton cookie is keeping watch on this graveyard shift. In addition to containing all of the tools to make 3-D coffin cookies, Julia’s Halloween Coffin and Skeleton kit also
What’s perhaps most wonderful about Julia’s Dynamic Duos™ stencil designs is that the pieces in them can be mixed and matched ad infinitum, allowing so many different cookies to come from the same two stencil sets. Take this 3-D coffin

Is it possible to be creepy and alluring at the same time? These bone-afide beauties (pun intended!) definitely prove so. Made with the skeleton cutter and stencil in Julia’s Halloween Coffin and Skeleton kit, her Kitchen Club debut kit, these
Two spooky 2-D caskets! While Julia’s full-blown Halloween Coffin and Skeleton kit provides all of the tools and video instruction to make fully 3-D coffins with skeletons inside, you can also purchase the starter kit and get your feet wet
Made with Julia’s starter 2-D Halloween Coffin and Skeleton kit, these two coffin cookies are every bit as tempting as her 3-D versions shown elsewhere in this gallery. Plus, they’re the perfect project for those just beginning with airbrushing and
Made for Julia’s 2022 icing fundamentals course at the International Cake Show Australia (ICSA), this double-decker cookie is a study in stenciling. The large ivory heart was stenciled with royal icing using a masked-off cake stencil, whereas the small white
Here’s a side view of Julia’s double-decker heart cookie made for her 2022 appearance at the International Cake Show Australia (ICSA). Notice the delicacy of her piped royal icing roses?! It’s achieved by using a very thick icing and a
The detail on these cookies belies their ease. Because they rely heavily on the relatively quick rubber-stamping technique, they are actually a lot simpler than they look. Just stamp the cookies and a few fondant sheets, dust them with compressed
Here’s that beautiful rubber-stamped and dusted bird cookie all by itself and a wee bit closer. Rubber-stamping without missing spots or smearing the coloring can be a little tricky. Fortunately, Julia has a sure-fire method to avoid these pitfalls that
Another stamped bird cookie, but on a gilded plate with different props. Isn’t it amazing how a simple change to the photo-styling can create a very different feeling? Julia often tries out multiple props (many gathered from her days as
