SWAK

I know.  I know.  It’s only January.  So why, you ask, is there a Valentines-themed cookie bouquet adorning this blog post?  I’m glad you asked.

After posting photos of the Halloween and Thanksgiving sugar cookies I made, I was asked if I’d consider filling an order for some Valentine cookies.  But being one of those pesky perfectionist types, I did it one further and created this super cute–even if I do say so myself–cookie bouquet.  This was my first attempt and, honestly, I wish I’d doubled the batch so that I could have practiced a few other decorating ideas.  That said, I suppose this practice batch turned out pretty well, considering.

As for why I decided to post it?  I figured that since I’m already going to be filling a couple of orders for these, I might as well throw it out as an option on the ol’ blog and see if there’s any further interest.  My cookie bouquets include five 4″ from-scratch sugar cookie “pops”, baked using all natural ingredients, including real vanilla bean.  Sometimes cutesy sweets aren’t as tasty as they are pleasing to the eye, but these cookies are an exception; they are absolutely divine.  I’m pricing the bouquets at $35 each and will be accepting orders until February 10th.  If you’re local and you’d like one, send an email to me at, Darcie {at} suchthespot {dot} {com} .  Orders will be available for pick-up on Feb. 13th or 14th at either Raytheon or the Fry’s at Rita and Houghton.

Exciting, right?!

Anyway, pardon this interruption.  Now back to my regularly-scheduled posting ;)
