Simply remove cookies from bakery box, keeping them in their heat sealed bags. Place cookies in an air tight container, like tubber ware.

Chocolate covered strawberries are best enjoyed the same day and stored at room temperature.
Store strawberries uncovered in a cool, dry place, away from any direct sunlight moisture and/or heat. If needed, you may store chocolate covered strawberries in the fridge for up to 2 days. Lay them in a single layer in an airtight container with a paper towel lining the bottom. Be mindful that chilled strawberries will sweat a little bit. This won't impact the flavor but the chocolate might change color.
We do not recommend freezing strawberries as they will become mushy when thawed.
Let the icing come to room temperature, if not already. This ensures the correct consistency for decorating. Gently massage the icing bags to reincorporate the color,
if there is color separations. This is completely normal!
Flatten the tip of the icing bag with the seam facing up. Snip the very tip off. You can always cut more later, if more flow is needed.

Why are custom decorated cookies (so) expensive?
Let's break it down ...
The average amount of time it takes me to complete a SINGLE DOZEN custom cookie order from start to finish is around 8-10 hours. Detailed sets take upwards of 12+ hours and elaborate sets can take 16+ hours!
This includes: custom order planning, invoicing, communication with clients, etc. Purchasing cutters or designing and printing them myself. Designing a cohesive set. Making dough and icing. Not to mention the years perfecting recipes. Baking and decorating. Photos and online posting. Packing and pick-up/delivery and more!
So what does this mean?
After the cost of ingredients and supplies, I make less than $5 an hour decorating cookies.
Each order is literally hand crafted by me, with lots of love, time and energy spent perfecting each cookie. I understand my pricing may not be for everyone and I truly respect that in every way possible.
