Gumdrop Cookie Shop review and {GIVEAWAY!!}


I can't remember how I originally came across the Gumdrop Cookie Shop but I do remember loving it as soon as I saw it. It is an online cookie shop that makes homemade and custom decorated sugar cookies to order. They have so many cute designs! I was able to review several cookies decorated for the 2010 new year and they would have been perfect at a new years eve party. I took some pictures of them to post on here but my camera is quite possibly the worst camera ever and the pictures did not do the cookies justice so I decided to show you a few cookies straight from the Gumdrop website.
I love these monogrammed cookies. Wouldn't they be so adorable at a wedding or engagement party?


These birthday ones would be great to put in a take home goodie bag. You could also have custom made cookies printed with an invitation to hand out. How fun would that be?


And these would make great Valentine treats, or you could put them in your kid's lunchbox as a nice surprise.


The cookies that were shipped to me were each packaged separately in a clear plastic bag and tied with a ribbon which was cute. The Gumdrop shop makes all of their cookies fresh so you don't have to worry about them being stale or crumbling and broken. I thought the cookies and the frosting tasted great and would be perfect to serve at a variety of different events. You can check out their gallery of cookies here to see all the other different designs they have.
