Fundraiser and Birthday Party

A new customer was having a birthday party and requested for 150 of our gingerbread girls however this was no ordinary birthday party, it was also a fundraiser for the National Breast Cancer Foundation. All 150 gingerbread cookie girls were decorated with pink dresses to support the organisation. What a great and effective way to hold a fundraiser!

First Official Order

Our very first customer was actually a friend from work named Dita whose son was having a Christmas party at his school. She ordered 30 assorted, Christmas gingerbread cookies.

So we got to work & made Christmas trees, snowmen, candy canes, snowflakes and Rudolph the red nose reindeers.

Things went according to plan except for the reindeers. We tragically lost the left antler on each of the reindeers and although most of them were repaired with a little help from a lot of icing, there was one that just couldn’t be saved L.




But overall the Christmas range turned out really well and very colorful and festive and the children at the school enjoyed them.

We were told by Dita that our “gingerbread cookies were a huge hit and that they were the first things to go” and her son Jonathan, 8 yrs old, was heard saying “These are the best gingerbread cookies I have ever tasted.” Success!
