Mézesmanna
*Sorry/not sorry
Professional porcelain painter, Judit Czinkné Poór, A.K.A. Mézesmanna, brings her love of Hungarian folk art to her highly-coveted cookies. Although she only started working with edibles in 2014, she’s already an acknowledged master cookie decorator.
She takes her traditional pattern inspiration from folk costumes, embroidery, and lace. In Hungary, particular patterns and colors are associated with specific regions, so each of her designs refer to a part of Hungary. I wasn’t able to find much about her in English, so I’ll just let her beautiful work speak for itself.
Mézesmanna’s Facebook page also has a number of amazing step-by-step videos. How does she have such a steady hand?
In addition to her traditional Hungarian designs, Mézesmanna makes other beautiful designs, too. Here are a few of my faves. Check out her Facebook page for hundreds more!

They’re amazing! I wonder if I would ever have the heart to eat something so beautiful, though. I’d probably save it until it gets moldy 🙂

I’d take a picture, post it, then motorboat the things. I’m heartless that way.

I love these. My background is Hungarian and I know my family would LOVE these as a gift. I wish we could get some.

It may be possible if you message her on Facebook. She does seem to be doing them for birthday parties and weddings and the like. It’s worth a try!

OMG she is so talented. It would be a sin to bite into one of these pieces of artwork. And what a steady hand she has. 🙂

The steadiness of her hands was the reason I’ve watched her videos 5+ times each. Those tiny, close stripes are so perfect! Truly a gift.

I was just watching that cookie video last night – bananas. I kind of want to see someone take a chomp at the end.

They really are. I just (re)watched the video with Beloved, and I said that every time she starts a new element of the design, I think “it doesn’t need that,” but each element adds just enough to the overall design. It’s incredible.

They really are magnificent. And if I hadn’t seen her step-by-step videos, I wouldn’t have believed they are done freehand.
