For King's Day we bake cookies with the mini monsters. We cut out letters and hearts and guess what colour they will be;)) The mini monsters love to stick out the shapes and with fondant icing they can do it! So no tinkering with piping royal icing today. The kids can make words with the biscuits or play and eat them afterwards of course!

Stick out hearts.

Stick the hearts on the biscuits.

Stick the letters on the biscuits.

Moisten the back of the fondant shapes with a drop of water, because of the icing sugar the fondant sticks to the biscuits
