I love the Pirates of The Caribbean franchise (in fact, Pirates of The Caribbean is one of my all-time favorite Disney rides) and I can’t wait to see the newest film later this month. These Pirates of The Caribbean inspired cookies look so adorable (and yummy!).
Always fun to have a party and base it off of a movie. These pirate cookies are really cute and I am sure they were a big hit.
These are fabulous! I do love my cookies, and these look delicious.
Oh I love it. So creative and fun. I bet it would be an awesome cookie party serving these pirate flag cookies.
I have seen almost all of these movies. I cannot wait to see the new one that’s coming out. Can you deliver those cookies to me? Mine would never turn out that nice. Great job on them.
These cookies look absolutely amazing – I can never get icing to look that good. We are really looking forward to the new movie!
Aww, these cookies are so cute. I wish I was good a baking and decorating with frosting!
What a cute idea! My kids are finally old enough to see the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, and this would make for a really fun movie night.
I loved all the other Pirates of the Caribbean movies. I am sure I will love this one! These cookies are cute.
I cannot wait to see this movie! I love Johnny Depp and Javier Bardem. I think this might be the best movie of the franchise!
Baking isn’t the problem for me it is decorating deserts. I lack either an artistic touch or the patience to make sweet treats look really great. Nice job with these pirate flag cookies.
This could be a great addition for a Pirates birthday theme. Would love to try this recipe. It’s always fun to be a kid once in a while.
Sounds like the perfect thing to do before the next movie comes out. My daughter would love making those cookies and decorating all those pirate flags. I am not sure I would be good at it, but it would be fun trying.
The cookies are so nice to look at I would think twice before I ate it. I am excited to see the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie. I am marking my calendar!
How creative is that and they looks yummy. My son would love to have some of those, arrr.
What a great idea for a party. It’s always fun to have a themed party based on a movie.
Those cookies are so cute. You do have a lot of talent in creating such wonderful cookie designs. I wish I had some of that talent!
I love the pirates of the Caribbean movies! These cookies are so much fun and i bet they were a blast to make.
Now these are fun! I think its awesome promo for the upcoming pirates of the Caribbean movie!
