Jenny Cookies Holiday Workshop Swag Giveaway

What a fun way to kick off the holidays!  Last Friday I spent the evening with 30 of the loveliest ladies teaching them my cookie baking and decorating skills!  We laughed, we baked, we decorated, and we ate way too much sugar!

I hosted the workshop at Romp in Bellevue, WA.  I absolutely love their space and their kitchen!  It’s always such a cozy and inviting atmosphere.

Each table was stocked with FROST crullers, salted caramel cupcakes and Snohomish Pie Company pie shots.  Yum!

I love a good swag bag.  I was thrilled to spoil each attendee with a beautiful gift box filled with goodies from Wilton and Nashville Wraps.  Each box had a gorgeous hand lettered tag that read “Welcome to the Jenny Cookies Workshop”.

Once the guests arrived, we got to work!  It’s always so much fun to teach others just how simple cookie baking and decorating really is.

I was thrilled to give each attendee a Wilton Color Right performance color system.  It takes the guesswork out of coloring your icing, leaving you able to mix the color you want using ultra-concentrated base colors.

While I demonstrated, guests sampled Snohomish Pie Company‘s pie shots.  How cute are these??
