Hey y’all! It’s Callye, from The Sweet Adventures of Sugarbelle! Kim asked me to share a fun Valentine cookie idea that would go well with one of her FREE Valentine printable cello toppers and I chose ROBOTS! {Her oldest is in LOVE with them as you can see from his robot birthday party this past year!}
Do you have a little one that just LOVES robots? Then you’re going to love this cute little cookie idea. The best part is, they are made with a cookie cutter you probably own, a HEART!
To make these you’ll need:
- Gray or white piping and outline icing
- Black flood icing
- Green and red piping icing
- Wilton Silver Pearl Spray
- Pre-made royal icing eyes
Begin by outlining and flooding the cookie in sections. For help with outlining and flooding, come see me!
After outlining the cookie, flood alternating sections being sure to wait about 20-30 minutes between touching areas to give the cookie a dimensional look. Continue filling this way until the cookie is completely flooded. Let the cookies dry overnight.
The next day, add rivets to each section of the cookie and let dry. Then use Wilton pearl spray or lustre dust to make the robot metallic. Want tips on making your cookies shine, come see me!
After the spray has had a few minutes to dry, fill the face section of the cookies with black flood icing and quickly drop in the pre-made eyes.
Let the cookies dry once again, for a few hours. To finish up, use a small icing tip such as a PME #1.5 to add a mouth and heart detail.
When the cookies are dry, you will have adorable little robot treats, perfect for your little Valentine!

January 27, 2013 at 1:25 amLove these cookies and all the information you share, very helpful. I have a question about your black icing, how do you get it so black? I have a problem with the icing tasting really chemically when I try and get it black as you’ve shown. Can you offer any tips?

December 8, 2015 at 7:29 amThis is so old and you probably won’t even see this, but I’m answering because I just found these cookies and am attemping to make them for my son’s Robotics club Christmas party. As for the black icing I just found a Pinterest tutorial that suggests adding cocoa powder to your white icing first because it then turns brown which is closer to black. Then you only have to had a small amount of black coloring to get it to be black and since it’s already slightly chocolately it will have a slight chocolate taste instead of chemicals.
