Poinsettia Cookie Pop Bouquets



Christmas cookie bouquets were six poinsettia shaped cookies on sticks, hand decorated with icing glaze, sugar, edible glitter and melted chocolate.  Each cookie pop was individually wrapped and tied with a bow.  The cookie pops were displayed in a recycled baby formula container wrapped in holiday paper and a fun bow.  The container was filled with sand and rocks (to weight it down) and topped with a circle of styrofoam (to hold the cookies in place) and green shredded paper.  These were made for my daughter's teachers' gifts from her class (gift cards were also added and stuck in with the cookies).
