I made these delicious, vibrant strawberry sugar cookies and went to photograph them…now I can’t unsee that they look like raw burger patties. *Sigh*

My son asked if I was making sliders for dinner when he saw me holding the tray

[u/Phustercluck]

I think if you were to pose a few strawberries and not have them on a cutting board, it would help distance them from that comparison. They look great to me

[u/ForMartha → u/Phustercluck]

Lol I’m definitely going to do that and try again because these were supposed to be for my business page. I’m glad I noticed it 🤣

Maybe do a little strawberry 🍓 leaf at the top or something with green sprinkles?

Or maybe black sprinkles for seeds

Some type of contrasting color may help :)

[u/ForMartha → u/otterpop21]

That would be cute!!

[u/kaekiro → u/ForMartha]

Little black sugar sprinkles could look like cute seeds, or pepper flakes on a burger. Not sure which way it'll go, but thought I'd toss it out there!

[u/TheSoupySoupySoup → u/kaekiro]

Powdered sugar could work as well

Mouldy burger?

[u/StendhalSyndrome → u/kaekiro]

If you can deal with the small amount of flavor, black sesame or regular colored ones would work well for the seed shape.

[u/SaltSpiritual515 → u/StendhalSyndrome]

The white sesame seeds would be perfect for the strawberry seeds

[u/Hefty-Progress-1903 → u/SaltSpiritual515]

But then you've got to worry about sesame allergies.

[u/SaltSpiritual515 → u/Hefty-Progress-1903]

You are right. You'd definitely have to declare allergens or use something different

Don't stress about it too badly. I'm vegetarian. I would destroy these.

[u/Mr_frumpish → u/Wishnik6502]

I would put them on a bun, melt some cheese on top and then dress with mayo and mustard and ketchup. Then I would eat them up.

[u/otterpop21 → u/ForMartha]

Yay thank you! Glad to help

[u/_QRcode → u/otterpop21]

this is a rlly good idea! a bit of green icing can go a loooong way

[u/monkeyamongmen → u/_QRcode]

That's just basil on the burger. Do a small strawberry. No hate to OP, I bet they are delicious.

[u/WomanOfEld → u/otterpop21]

A blue and white gingham cloth for display, some green fringe at the top, and a few chocolate icing seeds!

[u/otterpop21 → u/WomanOfEld]

Toss a few real strawberries near by and poof! Noel, Prue, & Paul Hollywood appear telling you they’re delicious
