I’m always up for a challenge, especially when it involves henna. So whilst I was browsing pinterest, I came across some colourful henna biscuits that had been adorned with intricate patterns in vibrant colours, I instantly fell in love & had to give it a go.

I found round flat biscuits from the supermarket worked the best as I didn’t have time to bake. For the base I used royal icing mixed with white food colouring, the patterns are made with pre made icing which I piped into handmade henna cones. To give the henna biscuits a unique twist, I added edible silver balls.

Henna biscuits make great tasty favours for various occasions like weddings, birthdays, baby showers & bridal showers, the best part is that every single part of the biscuit can be personalised from the taste, shape, theme colours, names & dates. They are the perfect touch for your special occasion.

The consistency of icing is very different to acrylic which I apply on candles, It is much thicker and less runny. It was quite a challenge trying to control my hand pressure, whilst creating intricate patterns. All in all, I would definitely try these again with different shaped biscuits & experiment with new colours, if you’re new to decorating, then this is a great way to ease yourself in.
