Baked with Platinum, I Guess

I was out and about on the Web last week, checking out the competition. It turns out that cookie bouquets are a popular item on the search engines. I thought it would be nice if we carried those.

Then I started investigating the cookie bouquet sites. One wanted 90 bucks for a dozen cookies. Another was asking $79. These are large by cookie standards, and hand-decorated to boot, but I still find it a great stretch to charge that much, plus shipping, of course, for a dozen cookies.

If you're thinking of sending someone cookies, it's because that person likes cookies. Wouldn't you rather send them a lot of pretty cookies than a handful dressed up to look like flowers?

Go check out our offerings from Supercookie. You can send three tubs of our mini-cookies, around 69 cookies total, for less than you'd spend for one dozen of those bouquet cookies. That includes shipping, and the last time I left a tub of these on my desk I had to hide it after an hour to keep my coworkers from eating them all.
