99.9% of my wife’s customers and the people she interacts with are a joy and easy to work with. They appreciate what she offers and the craftsmanship (or womanship) with which she completes her sets. One woman however balked at the price, and stated that they are “just cookies”. Sigh, no my dear, they are way more than just cookies.
My wife has had the distinct pleasure to participate in the meaningful events of so many families throughout her cookie journey, including every.single.event that I described above. No ma’am, these wonderful works of culinary divineness are many, many things. But what they are not, is “Just Cookies".

Not only that.... but it pays for her local and government taxes, her self employment insurance, utility bills for creating such treasures, pays for her time away from family, and not to mention supplies to keep creating such art.

No they aren't just cookies they are a lot of time and a work of art and they are also delicious... she made some cookies for my daughter in laws baby shower and they were a big hit with everyone ... love love love ❤️ everything about Cloud9 cookies 🍪 ❤❤ Cookies take a lot of work. From coming up with a design, to finding the perfect Cookie and royal icing recipe to mixing colors to come up with the perfect shade of Tiffany Blue to finding packaging that catches the eye, a lot of work is involved in creating beautiful, tasty cookies. So no they are not 'just cookies!'
