I have made and received fresh/not store bought ones and they are delicious!! We are giving these away (cherry blossoms) as part of LOs favors. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-decorative-sugar-cookies-with-icing#post-2424435 Sat, 16 Jan 2016 22:49:32 +0000 littlejoy 2424435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does a bear poop in the woods? :wink:</p> <p>I just had a friend offer to make a keepsake necklace for me. I sent her an email saying, "I'm a bit embarrassed I didn't verify cost before I got excited about it ... I can spend x amount." It ended up being a lot more, and I just said that I loved her work, and would just have to save for one. I don't think she was offended. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-decorative-sugar-cookies-with-icing#post-2424427 Sat, 16 Jan 2016 22:30:38 +0000 Torchwood 2424427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: Not at all. It's a reasonable question. I would only be offended if someone asked me to do very difficult ones and not charge them or something. I'll probably always give friend/family a discount, but most people don't realize just how much time goes into them.</p> <p>@lady baltimore: I can see where it wouldn't work for you! Though I have a good recipe for a chocolate one that you might like better. 😊 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-decorative-sugar-cookies-with-icing#post-2424415 Sat, 16 Jan 2016 22:05:58 +0000 peaches1038 2424415@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love love love sugar cookies </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-decorative-sugar-cookies-with-icing#post-2424403 Sat, 16 Jan 2016 21:42:08 +0000 lady baltimore 2424403@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Torchwood: Well, I don't like sugar cookies and I don't like icing, so even a very good version of this type of cookie is probably lost on me. :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-decorative-sugar-cookies-with-icing#post-2424375 Sat, 16 Jan 2016 20:59:51 +0000 regberadaisy 2424375@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Torchwood: would you be offended if a friend asked that? I'd rather give her my business than some stranger in Etsy. But I also don't want to spend $30-40 on cookies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-decorative-sugar-cookies-with-icing#post-2424358 Sat, 16 Jan 2016 20:46:59 +0000 Torchwood 2424358@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: I would ask what she could do for that price. Usually price varies based on degree of detail and size. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-decorative-sugar-cookies-with-icing#post-2424290 Sat, 16 Jan 2016 19:32:19 +0000 regberadaisy 2424290@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Torchwood: lol I have to say, as far as iced sugar cookies, hers are pretty good. But still way too sweet for my taste.</p> <p>@PawPrints: yeah but for CCC I can do that myself! I'm not sure what her rates her tbh. But I'm not willing to pay more than $1.50-$2.00 a cookie. So the awkward part is asking and then if it's way more...what do I do then? :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-decorative-sugar-cookies-with-icing#post-2424257 Sat, 16 Jan 2016 18:34:46 +0000 Torchwood 2424257@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lady baltimore: I hate when people assume that! Mine are actually good, I swear! :D</p> <p>I make them, so I'm partial. But I don't like most recipes. Those are really well done! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-decorative-sugar-cookies-with-icing#post-2424241 Sat, 16 Jan 2016 17:55:51 +0000 PawPrints 2424241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd eat them. And they are very cute. You don't say how much they cost, though. I usually find that something like chocolate chip cookies gets enjoyed just as much as more expensive/time-consuming options. But since it's someone you know, it could be lovely to support the business. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-decorative-sugar-cookies-with-icing#post-2424217 Sat, 16 Jan 2016 17:04:32 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2424217@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Those look great! I personally don't like them, but sugar cookies are DH's favorites. </p> <p>Give me a shortbread cookie or CCC and I'm in heaven! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-decorative-sugar-cookies-with-icing#post-2424184 Sat, 16 Jan 2016 15:38:26 +0000 petunia354 2424184@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They look nice but are too sweet for me with the icing. I'd prefer just a chocolate chip cookie!</p> <p>ETA I'm sure my kid would love it though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-decorative-sugar-cookies-with-icing#post-2424176 Sat, 16 Jan 2016 15:29:33 +0000 yellowbird 2424176@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only like chocolate chip cookies, but I also don't like cake! I think they are adorable and I know my lo would eat them! I'm just really particular with sweets </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-decorative-sugar-cookies-with-icing#post-2424173 Sat, 16 Jan 2016 15:16:47 +0000 MrsB2012 2424173@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually get them for my daughters birthday parties. I give them instead of a goodie bag while they're young. I find them expensive, I think they're like $2.50 a cookie here, but the lady I use does really nice work! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-decorative-sugar-cookies-with-icing#post-2424162 Sat, 16 Jan 2016 14:56:29 +0000 MoonMoon 2424162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They're beautiful, and good for decorations or favors. They would not be my first choice for favorite cookie to eat, but probably appropriate for a party. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-decorative-sugar-cookies-with-icing#post-2424153 Sat, 16 Jan 2016 14:14:34 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2424153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never think they taste very good but they are definitely pretty! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-decorative-sugar-cookies-with-icing#post-2424139 Sat, 16 Jan 2016 13:47:07 +0000 winniebee 2424139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Adorable.

I think they're adorable and always appreciate the personalized touch. But very rarely eat them. :P</p> <p>@MrsSCB: so sweet of your mom! And yeah she is pretty good. Especially since she's only been doing them for about a year or so and all self taught. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-decorative-sugar-cookies-with-icing#post-2424108 Sat, 16 Jan 2016 12:30:34 +0000 autumnlove 2424108@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cute!

Kids would probably like them, though, and if you have a lot of guests like me, a few will go a long way! :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-decorative-sugar-cookies-with-icing#post-2424093 Sat, 16 Jan 2016 12:13:03 +0000 Andrea 2424093@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cute, but I don't like eating them. I wouldn't mind getting them for a favor though. The kids would probably eat them, but they do prefer chocolate cake over anything else. :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-decorative-sugar-cookies-with-icing#post-2424089 Sat, 16 Jan 2016 12:01:55 +0000 meredithNYC 2424089@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love them, particularly as a favor.

I think they make a great treat for a party. We actually had iced sugar cookies at our wedding -- they had our monogram on them. At the rehearsal dinner we had ones of my H's fave football team (helmets and jerseys). It was all my mom's doing, I didn't even know she was ordering them, and people loved them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-decorative-sugar-cookies-with-icing#post-2424078 Sat, 16 Jan 2016 11:22:58 +0000 SweetiePie 2424078@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I LOVE iced sugar cookies!

I don't care for cookies like that simply because they tend to be crunchy. But. Arorable. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-like-decorative-sugar-cookies-with-icing#post-2424058 Sat, 16 Jan 2016 10:29:47 +0000 regberadaisy 2424058@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>BIL's ex has started a home sweet treats business. She was nice enough to send me cookies for DD2's first birthday and even sent some for the girls for Christmas. I'm thinking of asking her to make some for DD1's 4th birthday party. She's a home baker and does really good work!</p> <p>Wondering if it's worth the cost though. If most people like them? Or do they just look pretty? What's the typical price range?</p> <p>I also feel like since she's sent us so many freebies it'll be even to hire her to make some for the party. ;)</p> <p>She's based in Melbourne, FL, in case anyone is looking for a baker. ;)<br /> This is what she made for DD2's whale themed birthday.</p> <p>[attach=1325/16/o11xpo.600x582.image.jpeg] </p>
