How to Make Quatrefoil Print Cookies
Lately, it seems like quatrefoil is popping up everywhere. On pillows, clothing, and even cookies. While quatrefoil may look intimidating, it’s definitely doable. I promise you can master this print.
Using a cookie projector can make quatrefoil print a much more manageable task. Here’s a little template to simplify things. To print, click HERE.
After printing the template, trim to fit your projector, and clamp securely in place.
Use a #1-#1.5 tip to pipe the design. Consistency is very important for this kind of work. Too stiff and the lines will break. Too thin, and you’ll be left with a big blobby mess. Think toothpaste. Soft enough to to squeeze, but definitely not runny.
Quatrefoil looks beautiful mixed with prints like damask. I purchased this damask stencil from Designer Stencils and I love how the two patterns look together. If you need a little help with the whole stenciling thing, click HERE.
If you don’t own a Kopykake, there are several other ways to transfer this pattern to a cookie. For help, check out these helpful links:
