We are doing more custom cookies as our reputation gets out there and our marshmallow sales are still booming. We will be offering a homemade hot cocoa and marshmallow combination for the holidays along with pumpkin, caramel and peppermint marshmallows and a variety of holiday cookies. Whew. Bur I love the holidays!
Here is what we've done, just in the past two weeks.
These are table card cookies for a Bar Mitzvah in California. Mazel Tov Michael!
This is "Bunnicula". Apparently he is a vampire rabbit who sucks the life out of carrots. These were designed for the cast of the play based on the book of "Bunnicula". Notice that one ear has the play name and the other ear was personalized for each cast member. We hope those kids had a great show!
Cookies can serve multiple purposes. These, for example, were first an invitation to a birthday, then you can eat them. First birthdays are such a milestone and we are very pleased to be a part of such a special occasion. Happy Birthday Sofia and props to her mom Tami for such a fun invite.
These were favors for a big birthday. Life's a beach! Each cookie was embellished with royal icing on the umbrella, sailboat and starfish. Aren't they adorable? Happy B-Day Barbara.
Our corporate client list keeps on growing. Logo cookies are a great way to say thank you to clients or a unique way to introduce yourself. Who doesn't like getting cookies?
Custom "Welcome to Las Vegas" lollipops for a bride from Texas who came to Vegas to get married. She wanted these for the 'Welcome' bags for her out-of-town guests. I love them!
These lobster cookies are for a wedding in Rhode Island next week. They were sent off just yesterday. They were so much work but they were so worth it. And I love the personalized ribbon, it adds a very special touch. Mucho thanks to Diana at
Chic Favors and Invitations for the ribbons. I'm so happy to have found her and I know we will be working together a lot in the future. Sometimes fate gives you exactly what you need when you need it and Diana is one of those fateful things.
Same bride from Texas but these poker chip cookies were favors for the wedding. I wish Amanda and Craig much happiness, and thanks for letting GCS be a part of your big day!
Champagne anyone? A bit of bubbly for a 40th Birthday in New Jersey.
Huh? Why is there a picture of mushrooms in a post about sweets? Because they are MARSHMALLOW mushrooms. Popular in the U.K, but hard to find in the U.S., we were challenged by a customer to make her some. And they are both realistic and delicious. Even people who hate mushrooms will love these fun fungi!
Yes, that's just SOME of the things we have been up to. We now have handmade gummy candy as well. New products being worked on every day. I also want to thank Maura for her wonderful blog post about Glitter City Sweets, you are the bomb, girlfriend!
Okay, heigh ho, heigh ho, it's back to work I go, marshmallows and a special birthday cake are on the work orders today. Bless Georgie for letting me bake all the time now in her commercial kitchen. My 'couple hours a week' has become a 'couple of hours every day'. It's amazing the generosity you are given sometimes!
