Whether you’re baking for a fundraiser, a gathering with friends or simply as a personal tribute, decorating cookies can turn a simple treat into a powerful statement.
From bold feminist symbols to intricate floral designs, there are endless ways to use icing, colors and patterns to express support for women’s rights and empowerment.
In this guide, we’ll dive into creative and inspiring ways to decorate cookies that leave a delicious impression on this meaningful occasion.
Decorate cookies with empowering icons like the Venus symbol (♀) or raised fists to represent gender equality and women's rights.
Since it's the official color for International Women’s Day, using purple icing or fondant to create bold, eye-catching designs can make a strong statement.
Incorporate floral designs to symbolize growth, beauty and the nurturing strength of women. You could create elegant rose, lotus or sunflower designs.
Add a touch of glamour by dusting your cookies with edible glitter or gold dust, giving them a bold and celebratory look.
Use cookie cutters in the shape of tools associated with empowerment, such as a microphone (for women in media), a book (for women in education) or a gavel (for women in law).
Represent women globally by decorating cookies with flags from different countries, honoring the global movement for gender equality and the unique challenges women face around the world.
Pipe simple ribbons to represent awareness, support and unity. You could even tie them to symbolize women's solidarity.
