13th Annual Cookies N' Dreams

October 27, 2011

Our annual cookie-tasting event brought over 600 guests to The Somerset Collection to enjoy food, beverages, and wonderful cookies and cupcakes provided by our very generous bakers! Entertainment included dancing and music by Star Trax, The Boogah Hoogah show provided by Imagination Theatre Etc!, arts and crafts with Sozen Designs, face painting by Showoffs Body Art, pictures with Cookie Monster and an appearance by PAWS from the Detroit Tigers compliments of Marjie & Jordan Field. Thanks to the support of bakers, sponsors, guests and volunteers, we raised over $95,000 at this year's event!

Guests sampled each baker's tasty treats and voted on their favorites. The winners were:

All of the bakers are winners to us and deserve special thanks for generously donating their time and cookies.

Thanks also to Starbuck's, Holiday Market, Franklin Cider Mill, Peabody's & Achatz Handmade Pie Company!

Also, a very special note of appreciation to Sur la table for their generous donation of gift bags and baker gifts, and to the Sweet Factory for providing the candy for all the children to enjoy from the "Candy Teen."
