ADVICE FROM A PRO

Matt’s tip

Matt James professional event planner

“Any product that allows you to personalize it withโ€”or based onโ€”a photo is a great opportunity to use an old photo of the guest of honor from when they were younger.

In this case you could place multiple orders using either two โ€˜then & nowโ€™ย style photos orย three / four photos showing them โ€˜through the yearsโ€™.

This makes the cookies even more unique and entertaining for party guests; especially for milestone birthdays and occasions such as anniversaries, graduation, and retirement.

As these cookies are all about adding a visual wow-factor to your dessert table, you don’t need to order one for every guest.

Instead, maximize your budget by presenting these more expensive cookies in a row on a serving plate, flanked either side by a row of regular, less expensive cookies. This way, they become more of an accent or feature.

Alternatively, if your budget permits, present them in individual cellophane bags for guests to take home as party favors or, for seated dinners, put one on each place setting.”
