I decorated these summer dress cookies with royal icing and modeling chocolate. Modeling chocolate is similar to fondant, but I think it tastes much better!

To create the folds in the skirt of the dress, I shaped the modeling chocolate with the Thingamagenie from Genie’s Products. It’s a two-in-one tool that has a large flat end and a pointy end and it can be used for shaping, trimming, and fixing mistakes on icing, modeling chocolate, or fondant.
The bow on the summer dress cookie was made by pressing modeling chocolate into a bow mold. This bow mold from The Sugar Art is similar to the one I have.
