Sombrero Cookie Tutorial

May 14, 2014June 17, 2021

The boys’ favourite Cinco de Mayo activity this year was without a doubt the sombrero cookies; which is great because it was also the simplest activity to provide for!

Cookies (we bought ours)

Marshmallows (we used white)

Frosting (we used vanilla)

Icing gels, sugar sprinkles and jelly tots

Here’s how we did it. I modelled one, and they got the idea very quickly. Baby Dragon spent a great deal of time mixing the sprinkles and jellytots.

They turned out to be very delicious, apparently!

Each weekday, at around 3.45pm we arrive home from the school run. Last week was rather soggy thanks to the surprise downpours that made me very glad to have an umbrella in my hand [even if it was a tiny Fireman Sam one] and comfortable boots on on feet [highly gorgeous, deep red Hotter boots],…

ARRIBA! ARRIBA! ANDALE! ANDALE! CELEBRATING CINCO DE MAYO

Magical folk like our home. They love it. It’s a fact. Father Christmas, Mistletoe, Merry Bright and Mack Mack the elves, Dublin the Leprechaun and Hop, the Easter Bunny… they all come, and somehow they manage to extend their stay for as long as possible.
