Custom Cookies: Bold Birthday Colors!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this image I received recently for an order of custom cookies. I was super excited because I knew the graphic would look fantastic on a cookie. While I only show the cookies here, I mixed up the colors of the raffia so each favor cookie brought out the yellow, purple and aqua colors.

Local Brooklyn artist Fumiha designed and ordered these cookies so I was able to tell her in person how much I loved the design (and see her reaction when she opened them!). This is another nighttime shot, so the quality is not the best, but I couldn’t send them out the door without grabbing a quick shot.

Decorated Cookies: 90 never looked so sweet!

I occasionally get the opportunity to make decorated cookies for my family and friends, which is always a pleasure because I can see their reaction myself when they open the box. My grandpa’s 90^th birthday was no exception. To add some details to the surprise occasion, I created custom decorated cookies using a young photo of him from his army days. It was the perfect photo to create personalized, unique decorated cookies as favors as well as cupcake jewerly, which took the place of a typical birthday cake.

I should also add that my grandpa is one of my biggest fans as he has saved all of the gourmet decorated cookies I have ever made him (since I started my business) and he literally has them lined up on his shelf like little trophies. The irony of the situation it’s really me who is his biggest fan. So, today, I’d like to dedicate this post to Grandpa DiChiara, who has been a top-notch, A+ grandpa to me and the rest of everyone in our family. Thank you for everything you do for us.
