Sprinkles from Anne

A little birdie is turning one! My little birdie that is! My sweet, sweet Cecelia is celebrating her first birthday today! I cannot believe a year has passed already! It's been the best year of my life! Two girls are definitely better than one! Since Cecelia's nursery is decorated with...

Did your mama ever tell you not to play with your food? Well, forget it! Because, these cookies are meant to be played with...a Deluxe Cookie Edition Scrabble board! Every word is a winner...and it's tasty too! This project was created for a super cool customer AND as part of...

I love to 'cookie' cities. Yes, cookie is a verb in my vocabulary. It means to turn something or someone into a cookie. So far, I have cookied Paris, San Francisco, and London, and now I have officially cookied New York Cty. What a total blast! This New York City...

Happy Birthday to my sweet, amazing Mom! She is thoughtful, loving, caring, extremely funny, and she knows how to have a good time. She just also happens to be the #1 Nana, and has the coffee mug to prove it. I would not be a cookie baker if it weren't...

I'm back from a fantastic beach vacation in the sweet little town of Avalon, NJ. Before I left I had plans to prewrite a few blog posts and then publish them while I was lounging beachside. But, best laid plans and all that, I only managed to get ourselves packed...

Well, I hope you like airbrushed cookies. Looking at my last few projects for clients, which will be my next few blog posts...there's going to be some airbrushing going on. It's just so much fun...I actually might have a problem. Honestly, I am happy to do repeat cookies I have...

A few weekends ago I was very sneaky. I surprised my husband, Topher, with a weekend trip to New York City! I'm not sure I can accurately describe the magic of New York City, but even with the millions of people all around, Topher and I managed to feel like...

It's graduation season and that means it's also a busy cookie season! I enjoy making the diplomas and hats and balloons. But, I was so excited when my customer contacted me with this Hollywood themed graduation and birthday party idea. Her sister was turning 19 on her graduation day. Take...

This blog post is a special collaborative cookie project created by 16 different cookie artists.  The Challenge: Create a cookie or set of cookies using any page, advertisement, article, or the cover of the May 2012 Brides Magazine.  Then using the inspiration from the magazine, fit the cookies into one...

Here's a little secret...I have a cookie 'bucket list'. A list of dream projects and ideas that I plan to turn to cookie at some point. But, with a busy family life and a hoppin' order schedule, I don't always have time to work on the 'bucket list' projects.  It's...

I have several projects I want to show on the blog today - and thanks to my friend Lisa the Bearfootbaker and PicMonkey.com - I can show them easily with a collage format.  Here is a set of Graduation cookie samples made for a high school graduate.  I recently donated...

I'm catching up and catching my breath. I had a flurry of orders over the last few weeks and it has left me little time to get the blog updated. I always prioritize order deadlines over everything...so now that the orders are shipped I can show you what i've been...

I'm nuts for my girls. They are the light of my life. Some of our best moments are spent in the kitchen, but not baking...dancing. Every night as I'm making our dinner, I put on 'Gracie Music' and my sweet little girl dances away. And now Cecelia is finding the...

Cookies are a great way to make a birthday celebration a little sweeter. Here are a few projects made for some big milestones... I recently had a 50th Birthday celebration. The theme of the party was 50 and fabulous. I'm planning on being fabulous when I turn 50, too! This...

Life in a college town (or in our case, just outside of town), is a cornucopia of activities and opportunities. I never saw myself settling in Happy Valley following graduation, but now I can't imagine anything different for me or my family. Just today, I took the girls to a Penn State...
