How to use the DIY drawing projector for decorating cookies

... as a potential alternative to a Kopykake projector
In this post, I would like to show you how you can use the do-it yourself drawing projector for decorating cookies. Although I haven't worked with a Kopykake projector yet, I think the handling is similar (at least when it comes to tracing the projected image with a piping bag; see for example SimplySweetsByHoneybee). But, with the DIY drawing projector, you cannot flexibly adjust the size of the projected image. The image on the transparency film must be the right size for your cookie.

A DIY drawing projector for decorating cookies

... a potential alternative to a Kopykake projector
In this post, I would like to show you how to build a simple and inexpensive drawing projector, that can be used for decorating cookies (or for other drawing projects). To make the drawing projector, you'll need a flashlight, two boxes, a CD jewel case and some other stuff (like scissors and tape). Building this projector was fairly easy, and did not take much time.

Recipe for banankager (Danish banana cakes)

Recipe for Danish banankager
Banankage is my favorite Danish pastry. Since I was a child, I used to eat banankage when I was in Denmark. The cakes look and taste like banana. For some time past, I have been thinking of baking these cakes myself.
