A Baby Shower Cookie is
a Great Way to Sweeten Any Party
By using the baby shower cookie idea,
you can give yourself a lot of party possibilities.
Not only do cookies make great treats, but they can also be used for baby shower favors, decorations, and even a tasty cake idea. With just a little planning and a few tubs of icing, a baby shower cookie can be the other hit of the party.
Making baby shower cookie treats for the party is always a good idea. Not only are cookies smaller portions, but they can be decorated to match the overall baby shower theme as well. In some cases, a baby shower cookie can even be decorated while at the baby shower itself, as a sort of shower game that everyone can take part in.
Pass out plain sugar cookies in the shapes of baby related items (you can either bake or buy these) and then let guests decorate their own. You might even want to have a contest to determine who can make their cookie look the best to the mom to be. Of course, tasting is part of the judging.
Another idea is to create a baby shower cookie favor for everyone (prior to the shower, of course). Decorate them in the theme of the decorations and place one on each guest's plate or setting. You can even put the guest's name on their baby shower cookie to add a personal touch as well as add to the overall décor.
By decorating the baby shower cookies like lollipops, you can create cookie centerpieces that are both attractive and edible.
A baby shower cookie cake is an alternative to the traditional cake ideas. You can either order a cookie sheet cake from a bakery or easily make one yourself, adding decorations along the way. This tends to be a lighter version of traditional cake and sometimes much more popular.
There are also a number of alternative desserts mentioned in great detail in "The Baby Shower Kit" by Michael Rasmussen and Jillian Blume.
A baby shower cookie gives the planner plenty of possibilities for their party planning, as well as plenty of opportunities to taste the delicious results.
