What would one recommend for displaying a cookie bouquet for a judging event? I need to have 12 cookies available for tasting but how should I protect the bouquet prior to tasting? I want it to be fresh so thought I should wrap either the cookies individually, or the whole bouquet, but I also want it to look nice for judging. Any recommendations? Another question, I've read about using the shrink wrap, but will that adhere to my cookies, or maybe even smash everything?

I never wrap my cookie boquets for judging. My last boquet won best in show (yes, I'm bragging.lol) They stayed fine. Actually all my cookie entries have never been wrapped and I've always won first and/or judges favorite. (Yes, I'm bragging again. Sorry about that.) I even transported two cookie boquets over 300 miles unwrapped. Good luck. Did you post a pic of them?

Fairytale has much to brag about!!!! But I'm SOOOO happy she is here on Cake Central sharing all her beautiful work. She is a great inspiration. (Not to meantion a wealth of great ideas.)

I don't think you'd want to wrap your bouquet for judging....I just think it would hide too many details. Good luck and let us know how the competition turns out, cookierookie. I bet you will do GREAT!!!
