they are very cute! i like how you did the tail feathers! i dont' really do cookies so i couldn't be much help on cookie pricing. i think i've seen on here people talking about $2-$4 a cookie???

good luck with them! i'm sure everyone will want one!

"Cookies by Design" charges upwards to $7.00 a cookie but they are a huge chain. Something to consider anyway icon_rolleyes.gif

By the way, very nice cookies icon_lol.gif

I think 2.50 each is VERY reasonable.....they're beautiful!

They look great! I charge $3.50 for a cookie that size, at least. So that's about $14.00 an hour.

Thanks yall...im not very good at the pricing thing with anything...i dont know what im going to do when i finally get the chance to open up a shop..hopefully by then ill have the hang of things....
im glad yall liked them...i was kinda worried about what people would think about the tail feathers...i wasnt sure how to go about doing them...guess ill just keep doing them this way since yall like it.

$2.00 sounds good for being at the local market. I charge $3.00 for orders. I charged $2.00 at the craft show and sold about 130. I love seeing all the different ways people decorate thier cookies. Good luck and let us know when the grand opening is!!
