Those cookies look great!!!

(It's sad, but I spend a lot of time at CC, just drooling over other people's creations. Guess the upside is that it's not fattening.) tapedshut.gif

Love the tissue paper and pumpkin container. Looks like something out of Harry and David's catalogue.

As for pricing, there was a thread on this. I'll try to find it.
As I recall, there was a formula - $1.00 per inch?

Harry and David is a somewhat upscale catalog that sells high quality unique food stuffs (lots of fruit baskets) mainly for Xmas....

Charge between $40.00 to $45.00

Look at cookiebouquet.com --your cookie bouquet is comparable in quality to theirs so I would price it around what they go for.

yea i think were always the last to get word of the good stuff...i took my bouquet to the farmers market w/ a price of 25.00 this morning ...it didnt sell but it got a lot of people looking and oooing and ahhing..they were amazed they ahd never seen anything like that before..so maybe it will get me some orders for the Holidays coming up. but from seeing what people have to say i may have to up my price on it...but i dont wanna scare people away from them since its a "new" thing for people here.
