Just sharing results of my family's annual cookie day. We did over 60 dozen, this is the platter for church this morning, but we need to make boxes for gifts, workplaces, parties, etc. I'm not sure how to make the presentation prettier and still have all the varieties, as it is I left out plain chocolate chips and you can't see the stuff on the bottom. But they're all really tasty, so there's that.

    Your sugar cookie decoration is so perfect, the reindeer is my fave! But everything looks straight out of a cookbook photo.

    For the presentation, what sticks out for me is when people have everything grouped, and oddly- rectangular shapes make it the easiest to see everything. Then you could have everything similar to how you do now- but maybe a stripe along the tip/middle/bottom of your adorable sugar cookies. Just an idea 💡 and fantastic work!!

    Very nice 🤩 the cookies look like individual works of art.💛For the boxes you could layer the cookies using a sheet of parchment or wax paper.🎄You can put a mixed variety on each layer. 🌟 Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays. ⛄️❄️🙏

    I think the layout of your cookie platter is rather pleasing to look at. It’s not too brown/beige like some (mine) and everything looks inviting in a homey way. Like ‘Of course you can have one! Go ahead and take as many as you want’ kind of vibe.

    I need to know how you guys keep your cookies fresh if you bake them so early! Like I plan on starting today because I don’t think my cookies are as great if they sit around for a while. But I’ve been seeing these ginormous amounts of cookies already baked and I gotta know what the secret is!!!

    Could be a layout in a magazine! Beautiful!

  13. There’s a movie called Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland. In it, Nemo is offered a box of cookies. They’re perfect cookies and they’ve always stuck in my mind as looking like the most wonderful cookies in the world. Your cookies remind me of Nemo’s cookie box.

    Those raspberry cutouts look so scrumptious! It’s all delectable.

    Excellent decorating, very clean and detailed. I say, your platter presentation is most definitely attractive. Large cookie gift platters, enclosed with tinted cellophane, would give your cookies the presentation they deserve.
