pretty/tasty cookies are finally for sale!

pretty/tasty cookies live up to their name. made from scratch, they taste like home, like summers with grandma, like your favorite holiday, like a warm fuzzy feeling. carefully hand-decorated, pretty/tasty cookies catch your eye, impress your guests, complete the theme, make you smile. they're great for birthdays, showers, holiday parties, care packages, i'm sorry's, and i miss you's. they're also just pretty tasty so you may want to get some for yourself.

the basic pretty/tasty cookie is a vanilla sugar cookie with buttercream icing. shapes range from rounds with icing-based designs to shaped cookies like animals and the alphabet, but it isn't uncommon for us to create a shape to complete an order. get an idea of our range by checking out our picture album.

because pretty/tasty cookies are baked and decorated by hard-working, full-time graduate students, we can only take a limited number of orders per week. be sure to email us at
pretty.tasty.cookies@gmail.com with "order request" in the subject as soon as possible to get on the list for the weekend baking run. prices range depending on the number of colors of icing used in the design, design intricacy, whether a cutter exists for the cookie shape or it is hand-cut, the number of cookies ordered, and if it is a truly custom design (a. asking for hearts for valentine's day isn't a stretch, though we don't have pics of hearts up; b. we do a test-run of your cookie design to make sure we get it right for you for the real thing). that being said, a dozen cookies would probably start you off at about $18.
