about Chic Cookies

WHAT IS A CHIC COOKIES KIT?
Chic Cookies simplifies the art of cookie decorating for beginners and experts alike by confining all the hard-to-find supplies in one box.

Each full-size Chic Cookies kit will make dozens, if not hundreds, of cookies and contains: 2 to 3 themed cookie cutters, 6 frosting bags, 6 decorating tips, 6 couplers, 6 rubber bands, 1 cookie scraper and 5 bottles of chef's quality gel paste coloring (the best you can use). A few of the kits include sprinkles, too. Invaluable to the kit are the printed materials: "the guidebook" (a 12-page guide with recipes, tips on making frosting colors and bags, a color chart and decorating techniques), "the specifics" (one-page photograph cards with instructions for decorating your themed cookies), and "the short version: an at-a-glance guide" (a one-page summary card).

For your convenience, Chic Cookies also offers individual cookie decorating kits. These handy smaller versions of the kit make cookie decorating a snap and are great gifts for the baker or crafter. The smaller kits include 1 cutter, 2-3 frosting bags, couplers, tips and rubber bands, 1 scraper, 2 colors and recipe and instruction cards. "The guidebook" is not included in the smaller kits.

AND WHO AM I?
My book on the art of cookie decorating, Cookie Sensations: Creative Designs for Every Occasion, published in 2007, is the end product of more than a decade of cookie experience. From 1998 to 2007, I served as Head Decorator and Manager for a custom cookie store located outside of Washington, DC (Bundles of Cookies). Our store was featured on NBC's Today Show and Discovery Channel's Home Matters and was named "Best of Washington" by Washingtonian Magazine. My cookies have appeared in The Washington Post, The New York Times, and Chocolatier Magazine.
I live in Washington, DC with my husband, little girl and three cats.
