The holiday season is about to descend on cookiers everywhere, bringing with it loads of orders and too little time! But, no worries! To help ease the frenetic holiday pace, I’ve put some beautiful and timesaving stencils on sale, just for you
Usually “double-dealing” has negative connotations, but not in the context of this announcement! In fact, I’m about to deal you twice the typical dose of stencil fun
Ever get a feeling of impending doom when confronted with the proposition of making a portrait cookie? Well, you certainly aren’t the only one! The good news is: Cookie Connection’s October 2025 Watch-Learn-Create Challenge #61 guest, Noelle Le-Lê Phan Viên Hy, will put all of your irrational fears to rest
Yes, you soon will be sitting that way too – as long as you avail yourself of the latest sale on my beautiful and simple-to-use Prettier Plaques™ series
Admittedly, it’s hard to believe that Thanksgiving promos are starting already, but, as all cookiers well know, we need to plan far ahead for holidays in cookie-land! And in that spirit of getting organized, I bring you my 2025 Thanksgiving stencil sale
I probably don’t need to tell you to get crazy because I’m sure you will once you see the über-creative stencils included in this sale. Plus, savings on any Halloween stencil are eerie-sistible, especially when trick-or-treaters will be knocking on doors in no time flat!
So she is – the season of brisk air, heaping leaf piles, and pumpkin and spice cookies will be here before we know it! And, trust me, you’ll be glad you got this heads-up when you see what my latest autumn-themed stencil sale has in store for you
With the kids about to hit the books again, why not enroll yourself in cookie “school” and expand your decorating skills? If this idea sounds smart (pun intended! 😉), I’ve got just the sale to make your continuing education more affordable
Okay, okay, it may not be your birthday just yet, but what about all the other birthdays out there? And all the cute stenciled birthday cookies you might make for gifts? To make gift-giving super easy on you, I’ve got another great sale
The most delightful baby shower and gender reveal cookies are easily within your reach! Not only do my stencils and those by my partner make child’s play (pun intended!) of fabulous cookie decorating, but all of our baby-themed stencils are now on sale
People have been piping basketweave for what seems like eons, and almost every decorator has his/her own take. But few know how to make basketweave look as precise, elegant, and effortless as does Cookie Connection’s July 2025 Watch-Learn-Create Challenge #60 guest, Noriko Forster of Cookie Crumbs by mintlemonade
Yes, do! There’s an avalanche of savings – and an extra treat – to be had in my latest Christmas in July stencil sale. Come and fill your virtual Christmas stockings to overflowing
I know, I know, you’ve been holding your breath in anticipation of this post for about a month, but now you can finally let it go, as the winner reveal in the 2025 Julia M. Usher’s Cookie Art Competition™ is here at last
Whether you’re still giving last year’s teachers their appreciation gifts or already gearing up for the start of school this fall, my latest stencil sale is right on time! It also earns an A-plus for its generous savings and sensational designs
I invite you to escape with me to paradise! Okay, okay, so I won’t be taking you to an actual tropical island, but I am offering you something sweet, summery, and satisfying. It’s budget-friendly too
You’ll have no shortage of fun this Fourth of July with my oh-so-patriotic cookie stencils – especially as you can now get them at a hefty discount
