With more than 60 new Christmas cookie designs, along with festive New Year’s cookies and lovely Hanukkah treats, Cookie Craft Christmas delivers colorful inspiration to cookie decorators just when they need it most. Each spread features a full-page, close-up photograph of one cookie cutter shape with detailed decorating instructions on the facing page. Some pages feature one gloriously decorated cookie, while others might feature two or three interpretations of the same shape ornaments in complementary colors, Christmas trees decorated in varying styles, or gingerbread men wearing a rainbow of colors and patterns. Decorating instructions are as simple as tinting cookie dough green before baking Christmas trees or as intricate as piping hair on a gingerbread grandma, creating a frilly pattern for her apron, and decorating her dress using a pretty feathering technique. Techniques are described in full in a Decorating Glossary, and cookie and icing recipes are included. Fresh inspiration and fabulous decorating ideas fill the pages of this handy little sourcebook. It’s the perfect gift for anyone who has ever picked up a pastry bag. Publisher’s Note: The chart on page 17 gives ingredient quantities for making royal icing with meringue powder. Please note that you should use only 4 teaspoons of meringue powder for 2 cups of confectioners’ sugar in both the piping and the flooding recipes. (The table incorrectly gives the meringue powder quantity as 4 tablespoons.) This will be corrected in reprints of the book. Our thanks to an alert reader for finding and pointing out this error and our apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused. |

Looking At Ways In Which Christmas Cards Have Evolved Throughout Time
The average person that sends Christmas cards will send approximately 50, which equates to billions being sent worldwide each year. The tradition is one that has gone from strength to strength and the earning potential for card makers in the few weeks before Christmas is huge. This article examines how the tradition of giving Christmas cards has evolved since its inception.
The first card
Whilst there may have been a few people practicing the giving of handmade Christmas cards prior to; 1843 saw the first commercial one being sent. The card was commissioned by Sir Henry Cole who asked his friend John Calcott Horsley to design and print one for him. The design was sent by Cole to numerous friends and professional acquaintances to wish them a ‘Merry Christmas’. The design of the card was somewhat controversial in that part of it depicted a small child attempting to drink from a wine glass. The introduction of Christmas cards was a shrewd move by Cole, who had helped to develop the idea of the Penny Post three years prior.
Changing tastes
Many today would perhaps expect early Christmas cards to typically have contained religious themes. However, they frequently entailed more fanciful designs such as flowers and animals to represent the fact that spring was just around the corner. Religious themes and more wintery scenes did soon become popular in addition to Christmas cards becoming popular in America thanks to the printer Louis Prang.
Modern day alternatives
Modern day christmas cards are now available in many different shapes and sizes, with comedy cards proving a big hit. Another area that is enjoying real growth is that of personalised Christmas cards. This way you are able to create your card design online and then easily place your order. The process of designing personalised cards can be fun and the end result is something that can be kept by friends and family.
