Valentine’s Sugar Cookies – Rated G, PG, & PG-13
January 21, 2012 by Shelley
BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND!!
We are excited to re-share one of our MOST POPULAR posts EVAH! *Warning! If you are easily offended, please do not read too far down in this post. {No, there isn’t any crazy inappropriate stuff here! We are talking about sugar cookies.
}
Do you remember the gorgeous sugar cookies at my Twins’ First Sweet Shoppe Birthday Party? Well,…I didn’t make them. My incredibly talented friend, Marianne of Sweetopia, created them. Since then, I have attempted royal icing sugar cookies several times. While I am a long shot from becoming my idol Sweetopia, I’m having fun trying.
Are you in need of Valentine Treat Ideas? I’ve got three in one!
First up. My sweet ‘Rated G’ marbled Valentine Sugar Cookies. These are definitely the ones you want to take to the kids’ Valentine’s Day parties.
Aren’t they fun? This sweet little heart border is surprisingly easy to create!
Using royal icing, simply outline and fill your heart with a base color. Then add dots of a contrasting color around the edges. Simply drag the toothpick through the dots around the edges.
{You can find a more detailed explanation about marbling here and a video here}
Awww. I love his little chubby hand.
Look at these sweet innocent little sprinkles. They are about to SPICE things up around here!
Lingerie Cookies
‘Rated PG’ – Lingerie Bra Heart Shaped Cookies.
Find some heart sprinkles to imitate a lacy bra….
Outline with royal icing…
Fill in…
Smooth out icing with toothpick. Shake to settle.
Aren’t these sexy!? Add a little edible glitter and you’ve got one sassy cookie!
I love the pearl necklace on this one!
Before this post goes any further, I MUST give a warning. If you are easily offended, now is the time to CLOSE this window.
You need some undies to match that sassy bra top! These lingerie heart-shaped cookies wouldn’t be a complete set without the lingerie bottoms!
‘Rated PG-13′ thong heart-shaped cookies.
Add a few white sugar pearls to enhance,…uh,…the ‘rear’.
I used an open heart sprinkle to create some lacy undies.
Now wouldn’t these be fun to give your sweetheart on Valentine’s Day?! Maybe with a suggestive little love note?
{These could be fun at a lingerie bridal shower too? Or even a bachelor’s party?}
Sheesh, I hope I didn’t offend anyone! I ALMOST didn’t post these, but I thought they were just way too fun not to share. I was inspired by this adorable Valentine’s Day card Missy spotted last year.

I know there will be many questions about how to decorate sugar cookies with royal icing. I am NOT the one to tell you. Every last ounce I have learned, I have learned from Sweetopia‘s fabulous tutorials. A few good places to start:
You’ll need a fabulous Sugar Cookie Recipe. Next you’ll need a Royal Icing Recipe. Before you dive in, make sure to read over Sweetopia’s Top 10 Royal Icing decorating Tips and 10 Royal Icing Mistakes to Avoid. Whew! You’ll be a pro in no time. Don’t hesitant to ask Marianne if you have questions. She is fabulous!

So which version did you like best? Rated G, PG, or PG-13?
I’m needing some comment love on this post. I was a little nervous about it.
What are you doing for your significant other on Valentine’s Day?

LOL!! They are all fantastic!
Love the PG and PG-13 versions
My new thing to tell everyone is ‘listen’ before I say anything. Just one of those things you get addicted to saying.
So listen: I read on another blog that one of the best ways to keep your marriage healthy/happy is to bring it yourself sometimes and not always make your husband initiate intimacy. And I agree. I’m not advocating immorality, for the love. But husband is the key word. I’m married. He’s a man. I do have kids so we know a few things about the birds and the bees. I would hide these from my kids but I think any husband would love them.
I totally agree, and hey, you started with “so listen:” and I read the whole comment, so that obviously worked
I can’t see how anyone would find this post offensive. They are just really good fun, and quirky.
I love these! So so so cute and how cool would they be for a bridal shower or bachelorette party!
Those are so cute! My cookies usually end up looking like the kids did them, but I think I could attempt those cute hearts!
These look almost too beautiful to eat!
These are awesome. I love them so cute.
I think they’re adorable!!! I’ll probably whip some up and put them in hubby’s lunch around Valentine’s Day with a little note that says something like “Just a sneak peak!”
Geat idea! I’m going to do that too!
those are awesome!! i’m glad you decided to share
the best part is they look pretty easy too.
Super cute!
I have also seen with with PG-13 cookies, they slice a little off the point at the top so it looks more like a back.
Glad you posted, great idea
Those are seriously adorable! Love them!
fantastic! Great tutorial… I posted a link on ediblecrafts.craftgossip.com
These are adorable! I think they would be awesome also for a bachelorette party or bridal shower like you mentioned. I’ve not tried royal icing cookies, but the G rated cookies might just be making an appearance at the kids’ V-day parties.
The cookies are adorable. I would love to send some to my husband since we will be apart on Valentine’s Day – I just need to figure out if they will travel well enough!
Or, you could just take a picture of the cookies and send him the picture message on his phone saying something like “Can’t wait till you come home!” What an awesome idea! Love these cookies!
Oh goodness… when you mentioned it could be offensive, you wouldn’t believe the ideas that ran through my head! Your cookies are awesome, not at all offensive, and make me want to whip up a batch for… myself, I guess!
I might just try them for my next book club meeting. The ladies would get a good laugh!
Shelley you did and awesome job on these!!! Sassy AND pretty!!
Thanks for sharing my tutorials with your readers and happy va va voom Valentines!
Cute as can be!!
Love them all! Very cute!!!
LOVE THEM! You did great, and I love the idea! Thank you for sharing with us!!

Soooo much fun!
These are awesome! I love all of them actually!!!
We had these at my friends lingerie shower. It’s alittle awkward to eat a thong, but hey are super cute and tasty too.
I like them. They are racy but not inappropriate. I agree they would be good shower or husband cookies. Very creative.
I have been waiting for this post all week. I saw a sneak peak of the pictures in the back end. This is a fun post and oh so fun!
LOVE them! So much fun and not offensive at all
I just clicked on the link to the tips for royal icing because mine “crashes and burns” every time I try it. Maybe I should read the things not to do first because I’ve probably done one if not all of them
Thanks for sharing such a fun V-day idea.
Hilarious lingerie cookies!
Love ALL of them! I’m TOTALLY going to try the 1st one for my kids!
And the other two are ADORABLE! Sometimes my kids look at these crafty sites with me, and though it wouldn’t have been a big deal, it was nice to know to read this one alone. So thanks for the warning… but I AM glad you posted it!
That being said, these would SUPER CUTE for a lingerie shower!!! Next time I host one, I’m definitely coming back to this for a reference!!!
Happy Valentines!
Amy
Love them! I especially like the idea of getting to design a bra and panty set…without having to wear them!! (You could even write something spicy on the panties!)
These are adorable!! When you said “easily offended” I thought you were taking the bra off the cookie or something. haha! I love the pg ones… I don’t wear thongs so my husband might think I was giving him a cookie of another girls bootie! haha Thanks for sharing!
ha, ha. hee, hee, ha. You are so adorable Shelley!
Those are just too funny. Those who are offended don’t have a sense of humor! Thanks for the post!
I love all three! My hubby has been away on business for weeks. I think I’ll surprise him with these for when he finally get home! Thanks for sharing!
These are absolutely adorable!!! I am definitely going to be making the PG and PG13 versions for my hubby for Valentine’s Day. Thank you for the awesome gift idea!!!
Now those are cute. And not the least bit offensive!!
I found you through WFMW. Here’s my post: Reverse Works For Me Wednesday
SOOOOO funny! I totally love them! I’m going to include these in my “inspiration file” this friday if you want to check them out.

Seriously laughed out loud when I saw your PG-13 cookies! What a shock my hubby would get when he opened a box with these in them. Saving this one for sure ~ love it.

Thanks Shelley
No you didn’t!!!! Those are absolutely fantastic!!! So great. The thong is my favorite!
I LOVE these cookies! They are so cute, and fun, and creative. I’m getting all of my friends together to make these for our hubbies. How fun would these be as Giant heart cookies!!! SO excited. Thanks for the cute idea!
