Cookies by Design

So we all know that Cookie Bouquets are adorably cute, but who knew the actual cookies were heavenly tasting, too?
More often then not when I receive any kind of «cute» food, the second I put it in my mouth I’m disappointed (most wedding cakes fall into this category)…I guess food designers are forced to choose presentation over taste in some cases.
My mom was in the hospital not too long ago and she received three different cookie arrangements from our local Cookies by Design. I had seen the cookies on several occasions and even ordered them to be delivered to friends before but I had never even sampled one until my mom forced me to take a whole arrangement to my roommates because she was so sick of cookies.
One bite into the thick sugar/​shortbread cookie and I was in love. Each cookie is at least six inches tall and inch thick so I only made it through eating the head off a nurse teddy bear… the icing and the cookie are both incredibly rich. If you’re going to try to polish off a whole cookie make sure you have plenty of milk on hand!
You can order cookie arrangements on the website or visit on of their stores. I’ve gone to the West Chester location to order before, I like going in the store because they have sample decorated cookies and you can put together your own unique bouquets for delivery! Prices are comparable to flower bouquets, but I like cookie bouquets better… flowers you have to throw out, cookies you get to eat. Obvious.
