When I was making the panoramic sugar eggs
for Easter, I made a sugar heart, and decorated it with
some extra sugar paste flowers for a Mother's Day gift.
This particular heart was made for a dear friend to
give to her Mother on her special day!

I used a large inexpensive plastic heart that was
purchased at Wal Mart several years ago.

On the top half of the shell I used a cookie cutter
to cut out a heart shaped window.
This particular mold doesn't have a flat bottom, but
sits at a slight forward angle when finished. I works
perfectly for a sugar mold.

The finished shell.
I found some lovely scrap booking Mother's
day stickers at Michael's.
I built up the bottom with some royal icing frosting
to make it level.
Added grass.
I added a decorative piped border to the lower half
before adding the top. It makes a nice pattern
that you can see when you peak inside.
I scraped the outside off.
I added a bright and cheerful border
Mother's Day Betty!!
You are a very special lady.
