What country were you in when you read this?Was this fiction or nonfiction?
Witches and Princesses is what you're looking for, I think. It's in the Make and Play series. Unfortunately I can't find a cover image.My Fairy Tale Princess Activity Kit, by one of the same authors, has the Jewel Biscuits.
Witches and princesses definitely looks likely. I’m going to order a copy to check as it’s hard to confirm without pictures! Thank you!
Great. Maybe you can add the cover image when you get it.
My copy came, it is witches and princesses!!!! Thank you so much for your help.
Wonderful! You're very welcome. Could you add the cover to its page?
They had a mix of different activities in them.
The princess one contained a section on using a fan to speak in code (basically to flirt). I’m pretty certain one of the fan movements meant Fy!/Fie!
There was a recipe for biscuits with shapes cut out that boiled sweets were melted in for a stained glass effect.
I’m pretty sure there were instructions on how to make a princess hat with crepe paper ribbons trailing from the top.
There may have been information about famous princesses in history though I’m not sure.
The vibe was more medieval/historical princesses rather than fairy/Disney style princesses.
I may have had a 2-in-1 edition of the book that was the princess and the witchy one.
I think there was a white background on the cover, with colour illustrations throughout. I don’t think they were very large books.
