2012-06-26T08:00:00.000-07:00

I love when I get orders for things I haven't made before. It's always fun trying to come up with new ideas and experiment with new designs. I was a little nervous about doing these fireman themed cookies but I was so happy with how they turned out! Here is the platter.

Birthday Boy!

Thanksgiving

2011-12-03T10:29:00.000-08:00

I really love the holidays. It's so much fun to be around friends and family, eat lots of good food, and make lots of great memories. This Thanksgiving was a very busy one for me. It was my first Thanksgiving since I started making cookies. It wasn't as easy as I thought it would be to manage making cookies while thinking about the upcoming holiday. I was very happy with all of the Thanksgiving designs this year.

Happy Holidays!!

University of Houston

2011-12-02T21:22:00.001-08:00

So I have been really slacking on updating the blog lately. The holidays have brought many cookie orders and there are never enough hours in the day to complete them all.

Since I am from Houston and UH has a big game tomorrow I thought I would post these cookies that I did a while back. Hopefully it will give them some good luck in their conference championship game tomorrow!

While I did not go to UH, it is always nice to see your hometown school doing well. So for tomorrow - Go Coogs!

End of October

2011-11-04T09:05:00.000-07:00

So October proved to be a VERY busy cookie month. We had several Halloween orders, some birthday orders, some shipped orders, some cookie jars, and some thank you gifts. It has been a very busy month!

I also bought a new camera this month. I decided that my old pictures were not good enough so I've been practicing with my new camera. Here are some of the cookies I've been doing this month:

We had a baby shower at the office. Of course I offered to bring cookies. They were a hit! Everyone loved them! It's always fun to see people's reactions to the cookies I make. It makes this job/hobby so much more fun.

These cookies were made for an order being shipped to Florida - red purses and shoes with "Thank You" written on them. I thought they turned out prett cute! These are some new purse designs.

These were for a bridesmaid luncheon. The wedding colors were peach and white so we made some bridesmaid dresses to match.

These were also part of the order sent to Florida. Crosses with "Blessings" written on them.

Another part of the Florida order - red and white birthday presents with "Happy Birthday James" on them.

Closer picture of the thank you purses.

All of the cookies for the Florida order - all bagged and ready to be shipped! This is an example of the way we bag our packaged cookies.

October has been very busy but I can only imaging what November and December will bring me! I already have some orders lined up for December and will be out of town from the 17th-24th so get your orders in early if you want Christmas cookies! They would be great for Christmas parties and teacher gifts!

Halloween

2011-10-13T07:54:00.000-07:00

Here is my 2011 Halloween collection! Please let me know if you would like to order any Halloween Cookies.

Birthday Cookie Jars

2011-10-03T18:40:00.000-07:00

My family has a lot of September birthdays. Both of my brothers, my sister in law (you remember the cow cookies I made for her a few weeks ago), and my boyfriend all have September birthdays. Lots of September birthdays means lots of birthday cookie jars! Both of my brothers are Aggies (Whoop!) so we made them some Aggie cookie jars:

My boyfriend loves duck hunting and fishing and anything outdoors. So naturally, he got a camo hunting and fishing cookie jar:

Everyone loved getting their personalized birthday cookies! This week I have an order of fleur-de-lis and footballs, a dog themed cookie jar and cookies for a high school open house. October is a busy month!

Baby Shower

2011-09-27T10:47:00.000-07:00

Last week I had an order for a baby shower. The mom really likes leopard print so we made sure to incorporate leopard print into her cookies.

Next up - A&M birthday cookie jars and a camo hunting and fishing cookie jar

Butterflies, Dolphins, and Cows

2011-09-11T08:34:00.000-07:00

Last week I posted about the Women's Hospital Style Show and Luncheon I had the privilege to make cookies for. Below are some close ups of the cookies and the process it took to make all of those cookies!

The Butterflies

Cookies were everywhere!


All of the cookies with the invitations. The colors were made to match the invitations.

I also made some dolphin cookies this week for a birthday party. The girl's favorite color is blue so we made blue dolphins!


Here is an example of our packaging.

My sister-in-law's birthday was this past weekend. Her favorite animal is a cow - so naturally we made her cow cookies! She also loves cake balls so we made her some amaretto cake balls. They were delicious!

Close up

All of the desserts. Cookies, Cake Balls, and Whoopie Pies.

This has been a busy cookie week! More updates soon to come! Coming up soon - Leopard print!!!

We are really excited to introduce a new product we are now making!! Whoopie Pies!

Whoopie Pies are like a cupcake, only they have the icing in the center! These are red velvet Whoopie Pies with cream cheese filling drizzled with white chocolate. They are really delicious!

Bachelorette Parties, Fishing, Bridal Showers, Texas, and Cookie Jars!

2011-06-25T14:01:00.000-07:00

These are a new design - fishing! I originally made these for my grandfather's 80th birthday party and have gotten a few more orders for them since!

These are some for a 90th birthday.

These are the original ones I made for Grampee. Aren't they just so fun!? They were a hit at the party!

These were made for an engagement party. The theme was peacock feathers so we tried to use peacock feather colors. I love these colors! They went together so well!

Here in Texas we have a lot of pride for our state. These were for a woman who is moving out of state and her co-workers were throwing her a going away party.

There have been a lot of bachelorette parties lately. It must be wedding season! Here are some of our most recent bachelorette cookies. We didn't get a picture of them on the platter but we got some individuals.

Also for Grampee's birthday we made a cookie family tree. Everyone loved this!

These were for an Aggie engagement shower. I like the way they turned out with the maroon details.

These were mailed as a thank you! I love the white ribbon (my mom's touch).

Graduations and Weddings

2011-06-25T13:50:00.000-07:00

We have had a busy couple of weeks - I apologize for the lack of new posts. Today I am going to do a little catch up!

We made some centerpieces for a bridal luncheon. Instead of using real flowers, we made some cookie flowers and stuck them in the centerpieces. They turned out really cute and everyone got to take home a cookie as their favor!

We also made 350 cookies for a wedding. They turned out really cute and looked great on the tables! They were orange and yellow to match the flowers arrangements on all of the tables.

We had a couple of graduation orders also. These were for a high school graduation. We included all different kinds of things that she was involved in while in high school. She will be going to A&M in the fall so we also got to make some Aggie cookies! Whoop!

We also had an order of longhorn cookies. Being an Aggie, these were very difficult to make...

But I put on a happy face and made some pretty cute longhorns...if that is possible :)
