Hip-Hop and Frosting: Celebrating #nationalcookieday with @vickiee_yo

It’s #nationalcookieday! For more bite-worthy posts, explore the hashtag and follow @vickiee_yo on Instagram.

Fun fact: Vickie Liu’s (@vickiee_yo) motivation music of choice when frosting hundreds of tiny cat cookies? “Tupac, to be honest,” says the 25-year-old. “I listen to a lot of old-school hip-hop while I frost — I find it really therapeutic.” Born and raised in Melbourne, Australia, the self-taught baker began creating cookie art as a stress reliever while studying interior design. But while her creations are all pastel puns and whimsical cuteness, she enjoys maintaining a separation between her on- and offline persona. “I try to make my work really colorful, and I like working on a small scale,” says Vickie. “But people meet me and I’m the complete opposite of what they thought. They’re like, ‘Oh, you’re so much cooler than I thought you would be.’ And I’m like, ‘What? Is that a compliment?!’”
