Since I'm just starting out with my cookie decorating and I'm ready for the business as soon as I'm having my kitchen inspected and passed, I need to know when is the most popular time people ordering cookies from now to New Year's Day? The events for this year are:

*Wedding
*Labor Day
*First Day of School
*Fall season
*Halloween
*Thanksgiving
*Christmas
*New Year

Based on your past experience, which event is the most busiest for you?

Same for me.....no other holiday could touch my Valentine's Day orders! Mother's Day was a close second, with Christmas being third!

surfergina-congrats on your new business venture....
I think Christmas was the busiest for me, followed by Valentine's Day, Mother's Day and Halloween. During the summer(my slow time) I really try to concentrate on the wedding/birthday market.

Wow! Now I get the ideas. I will be working on Christmas cookies and take pictures for my website so my customer can "shop" for cookies. Boy, am I glad it's almost August and I have times to practice - whew! I can't wait for Valentine's Day since it's my favorite holiday.
