For this particular cookie design, here are the supplies you'll need:

• Groovy Easter chic - I created this cookie cutter. If you want one, I sell them for $5 each.
  
• Chefmaster liqua gels in white (yes, I do put a little white in my white icing), orange, black, lemon yellow and neon pink
  
• Chefmaster set B             
• Chefmaster set C
• Royal icing - I make mine with Genies Dream meringue powder
• Brown edible marker 
• Food safe paint brush

Icing Consistencies & Colors 

1. Flood -yellow and pink
   
2. Detail - yellow, orange, pink and black
   

Now, let's dive into the steps:

1. Using your edible marker, draw the sunglasses area onto the cookie. Also add a line separating the leg from where the feet will be AND a line separating the head from the body.
   
2. Using your black detail icing, squirt a dime size blog where the black part of the sunglasses will be. Use a paint brush and spread over the area - it's okay if you go outside of the lines a little because you will ice around this area.
3. Using the yellow detail icing outline the head of the chic and around the outside of the sunglasses
4. Flood this area with yellow flood icing
5. Set aside and let the icing crust over - in front a small fan on low if possible
   
6. Using the yellow detail icing, outline the bottom of the chic (remember to not outline the foot area)
7.  Using yellow flood, flood this area - remember to use your scribe to settle the icing and fill in all gaps
   
8. Using pink detail icing, outline the area around the black part of the sunglasses
9. Using pink flood, flood the pink sunglasses area - use your scribe to fill gaps
10. Set aside and let the flood icing crust over (about 30 minutes)
11. Using orange detail, add the beak
12. Using orange detail, add the feet
13. Let the cookie dry for several hours, then using your brown edible marker, add the feather details
    

That's it! Allow the cookie to dry for 24 hours, and it'll be ready to go. Wishing you the best of luck on your decorating journey, and I can't wait to see your beautiful creations!
