Avenging your taste buds one bite at a time!

[coffeebuddha]

A while back I said that I wanted to make Avenger themed cookies.

Yeah, so that happened. The frosting and cookies are 100% made from scratch and all the designs were piped by hand using a Crisco based pseudo-buttercream. Let's do a close up run down, shall we? (Sorry for the blurriness. My camera really sucks. Blurry pics have been replaced with better ones.)

We've got Thor's hammer.



Steve's shield.



Tony's arc reactor.



Darcy's taser. (And yes, I know she's not an Avenger or even in the movie, but she's my favorite and I ship her like burning with Bruce right now, so she stays. :)



The world's crudest Avengers symbol. (Why must you taunt me so, circles? Why?)



Fury's eye patch.



Clint's bow and arrow.

Coulson's tie.



Natasha's black widow mark.



And off to the side a radiation symbol is Hulking its way out of a blank, zen Bruce cookie. (I know the frosting looks super blue in the picture, but it's purple in real life. Bah, I fail at photography. black_sluggard did a color correct that's actually really close to the real color down in the comments if you're interested, though.)

I'm not an artist and have never claimed to be one, so please be kind. *runs away*

my love for the Hulk cookie cannot be expressed in any other way than a keyboard smash

Hahahaha, thanks! :D

[entwashian.livejournal.com]

Not sure if want to eat the gamma ray cookie.

YESSSS I KNEW THAT WAS DARCY.

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

I'd be more concerned about eating Natasha's tbh. ;)

HOW COULD I POSSIBLY LEAVE HER OUT?

[angelskuuipo.livejournal.com]

These are great. :D

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

Thanks! :D

[black_sluggard]

Why, yes, I did just color correct a cookie.

It's that kind of night for boredom.

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

THIS IS WHY I LOVE YOU. STUFF LIKE THIS RIGHT HERE. &hearts

[zilentdreamer.livejournal.com]

I want those cookies!!!!!!

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

Thanks, bb! Settle for the recipes and try making your own? :)

[zilentdreamer.livejournal.com]

*makes grabby hands*

Yes! Yes I want the recipes and a machine that will let me pass through the screen of my laptop so I can steal your cookies but that is bad so the recipe is good too. ^^

[monicaop.livejournal.com]

This are amazing!!! :D I loved the Darcy one!!! :D

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

Thank you! There was no way I could possibly leave her out. :D

[rispacooper.livejournal.com]

Yay for Coulson's tie. But that Steve cookie is sexy!

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

All the ties, all the time! It's the cookie for anyone who's ever wanted to take a bite out of Steve's...shield. ^.^

I was disappointed in Thor that no one said "Rainbow Bridge? Like in Mario Kart?"

it would have been perfect.

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

They were too busy staring at his abs to be clever. That does sound like it would have been a perfect Darcy line, though.

[rispacooper.livejournal.com]

I was wondering at his lack of chest hair. I admit though, the hand kissing would have flustered me.

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

Asgard is well known for its waxing. Trufax. I honestly don't know if I'd swoon or have a freaked out germaphobic moment if anyone ever kissed my hand.

[rispacooper.livejournal.com]

Exactly. It was an all around flustering moment. Flustered! There would have been blushes.

[ageless-aislynn.livejournal.com]

Those are awesome! *thumbs up* :D ♥♥♥!!!

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :D

[theslashbunny.livejournal.com]

I've said it before and clearly I'll be saying it until the end of time:

I love you and your brain.

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

ILU2, bb. &hearts

BTW, I might have accidentally recruited yet another person to our love nest/harem/porny commune. Just so you know. Oops? *halo*

[shadadukal]

Great job! Wow! Makes me want to try my own.

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

Thank you! You should! I had a lot of fun figuring out how I wanted to do the designs and doing the decorating. :)

[dickgloucester.livejournal.com]

These are whimsical and brilliant!

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :)

[sinjah.livejournal.com]

Ooooooh, AWESOME.

I've been meaning to make Avengers cupcakes, but stuff like fondant and food coloring are hard to find here :(

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :D

I can't help with the food coloring, but it's really easy to make your own fondant and modeling chocolate.

I haven't tried doing the modeling chocolate yet, but I'm going to make some later this week with white chocolate to use on some bee themed honey cupcakes, so I'll let you know how it turns out.

[sinjah.livejournal.com]

I've made fondant before, but marshmallows are really hard to get here too, and the sugar one I made was way too soft. But if I ever find marshmallows I'll definitely try that recipe! I've also never attempted to work with modeling chocolate before, do let me know how it goes!

[behindgrey-eyes.livejournal.com]

Those look yummy! I love that you included Darcy :DDD

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I love her too much to even consider leaving her out. ;)

[chasingtides.livejournal.com]

This is amazing! I love it.

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :)

[dlasta.livejournal.com]

Those are some heroic cookies.:)

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

They will kick your diet's ass! ;)

[auntmo9.livejournal.com]

These are awesome!

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :)

Darcy would so bake these for the Avengers!

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :D

Oh, it's coming in a fic soon. It's coming.

[zoe-says-hi.livejournal.com]

The cookies are awesome, but you're more awesome for making them.
And you made a Darcy cookie :)

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

Aww, thank you! &hearts

She deserves her own cookie. ;)
