Pretty Cake Stand Cookies
Sometimes one little detail can make an ordinary cookie cutter extraordinary. By combining two everyday cutters I completely changed the look of this wedding cake cookie.
I used a simple Wilton cake cutter and used a small triangle from this set {which is very handy to have around} to add a stand.
Bake together and decorate and you’ll have beautiful cookies like these!
You can also use other cutter combos to make cake stand cookies. I combined a top hat and mini-kiss cutter {both from Hobby Lobby} for a more whimsical look.
Decorating them is simple. Just remember, it’s all about layering.
Use sea foam green 20-second icing to create a cake stand.- Give the stand 20 minutes to dry, then used ivory flood icing to create the cake layers.
- After another 20-30 minutes of dry time, use brown 20-second icing for the frosting.
- Add a few pretty details to the cake plate with green piping icing.
- Finish up with pretty accent flowers in white and pink. I used a #1.5 tip.
I didn’t do a step-by step tutorial because this is a simple design that leaves a lot of room for creativity. I cannot wait to see your version. Speaking of creativity, my friend Lisa, The Bearfoot Baker has also created a GORGEOUS cake stand cookie. You should hop on over and take a look!
I hope everyone is surviving graduation cookie season!
Happy Baking!
Can I ask what you do with all of the cookies you make? I only have my husband and myself in the house. Practicing always turns to “what do I do with all of these”. lol These are great cookies. I’ll have to give them a try. Thanks
I would love to know how you make your flower details… When I try to make them they never turn out like yours….any tips??
This is so creative, Callye! I love it! 🙂
I so admire people who can make good cookies and make them look fantastic too. I can’t make cookies worth a damn, except for one cake style cookie.
These are GORGEOUS!!
I love the dimension of the frosting dripping down the sides…and that cake stand!!
WOW these are so beautiful-you are really talented!!!!
You are so creative! I just love watching how you combine different cutters. Amazing cakes :))
You have made a lot of fabulous cookies in your life…but these just might be my very favorites!! I LOVE the colors and adore the layers and the dimensions and the flowers are the most perfect addition EVER!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE THEM!!!
I LOVE these!! The icing is wonderful with the flowers but I think my favorite is that gorgeous cake stand!! That is the perfect shade of green to go with the chocolate frosting! You are so talented!!
Oh I love this. You always have the BEST color combos. Adorable!!
I can not tell you how much I look forward to your posts! You are an inspiration!
Your eye for seeing beyond the intended parameters of any given shape is so special and the results are always such a delight for the eye and the *soul!* Your work always makes me smile.
Absolutely beautiful! How did you make the sea foam green color?
These are so gorgeous! And as you said, so much room for creativity! Thanks for this great idea.
I’m absolutely loving these cookies. A real stroke of genius!

that cake stand is genius! Ever since I saw your instagram pictures, I’ve been dying to know where you got it. 😉
I LOVE these cookies. I want a cake now to match the cookies 🙂
I love the way your brain works.
Your decorating is always so clean and perfect looking. I completely *heart* these cookies! Plus, your color selections are always right on target!
This may sound like a silly question, but how did you do those little flowers? I’m just beginning to get into cookie decorating and the round ones look like a simple but beautiful design to do… Thanks and hope you’re having a great day 🙂
Just adorable!

It’s strange how your blog answers my weekly cookie prayers! This week I was asked to make wedding cookies. I wanted to tweak my basic wedding cake design but was having trouble… wallah! Ur blog! Perfect inspiration. Also happened when I was asked to do gender reveal cookies! I said yes without knowing what a gender reveal cookie was… wallah! Ur blog! Prayers answered! Thank you Sugarbelle. You are a cookie saver 🙂

You amaze me with each and every cookie creation ~ these are stunning!
I’m always in awe of your super cute creations.
Wow….I love the whimsical look of this cake stand cookie. I actually own the Wilton wedding cake cutter. What a great idea to make more of it.
I love these!!! You have taught me how to expand my cookie cutter capabilities with buying more!
I LOVE these cookies! Ok, I’m biased because I own a cake stand company and I’m a sucker for any and all sugar cookies. I’ll take 10 of these and a cup of joe and I’m all set. What a delectable idea!
Cute, funky, fun, BRAVO!
Your vision, your ability to see beyond the confines of an intended shape, continues to astound me. I can’t even describe how much I love these, and love seeing a peek into how your mind works and how you put it together.
you are so inspirational to me. the talent is just stupendous!
and i think it’s so sweet that you emphasized your friend’s cookie – even if i don’t believe it’s half as good as your own.
it just shows how great your nature is.
How wonderfully clever!
You are a very talented & amazing women thanks for teaching me. God bless you & your family
I am a brand new beginner, and when I say beginner I mean, never done this type of art and creativity before. I want to say I am blown away by all the amazing cookie designs. I started 2 days ago, and being the ‘perfectionist’ that I am I’m very frustrated, because of course I want the cookies to come out like yours:( they didn’t. I know The more I do,the better I’ll get at it. I want to thank you for all the helpful videos, tips and info., and II hope one day to make at least one nice looking cookie. Keep making and sharing thanks!
My husband thanks you for saving him money :). I have had cake stand cutters on my wish list from Ecrandal. I can’t believe I never thought to make my own. It’s something that makes me want to bang my head against a wall.
Your cakes are so stunning! You are so right that the possibilities are endless for this style of cakes. I definitely want to make some of these in the near future.
You’re really good!
These are adorable!!
Thank you!!!
Oh My Flipping Heck! These have got to be the cutest cookies I have seen in a long time!
