Today we’ll be creating  a box of Cuban Cohiba cigars, made entirely out of cookies!  We’ll also be making:

• cigars (lit and unlit)
• a Xikar Xi1 cigar cutter and
• a Xikar Executive torch lighter

This project is perfect for any occasion for that cigar lover in your life, or as a Father’s Day centerpiece.

In order to decorate these cookies, you’ll need the following colors and consistencies of royal icing:

• Flood consistency royal icing: Ivory, coffee, brown, yellow, gray, and white
• Medium consistency royal icing: Ivory and gray
• Stiff consistency royal icing: Brown
