Tear Drop Hearts

  Raspberry puree hearts in my baked mini Sweet Heart Cheesecakes.

Valentines Day countdown continues with quick & easy tear drop hearts. 

 Ice your cupcakes or cookies in a base colour, whilst it's still wet apply dots of icing in a secondary colour.

Armed with a toothpick, drag the toothpick lightly through a dot to create a heart shape.

This works with glacé icing, royal icing, frosting (try white frosting with a red piping gel), chocolate, and baking.

It is so, so, humid here; plans of sugar work hearts, chocolate heart shapes, meringues and decorated cookies all had to be scrapped because of the weather. For those in the blizzards on the other side of the world, keep safe, warm & roll on next season!!
