Looking for something a little less tradition for Valentine’s Day? Try these super adorable Valentine’s Day Cat & Fish Cookies made with sugar cookies and buttercream!
I have no reason for making these Valentine’s Day Cat & Fish Cookies other than I fell in love with the cookie cutters when I saw them. I mean, fishies and kitties?
YES PLEASE!
This cute set included a cat head, a cat paw, and a fish. I don’t know which one I loved more, the kitty head or the fishy! Seriously both so adorable!
Have you ever shopped at Charming Charlie? It’s a jewelry store that also sells the cutest accessories and fun home stuff! I love them because everything is sorted by color and theme.
I found these adorable cat & fish cookie cutters at my local Charming Charlie and luckily for you they are on clearance on their website now!
