Early Christmas Cookies for the Jingle Mart

Last week I was asked if I would be interested in making some cookies for the Christ the King school's annual Jingle Mart. I was thrilled to be asked! I had less than 48 hours to do it though once I was asked...I like a challenge! Really I just wanted to use my new snowflake cookie cutters I think. :) Below are some of the cookies that I created for the event - hope all went well with it!! Thanks again for asking me to do this!

La Marie's Confections Launch Party!

First of all, I want to shout out a big THANK YOU to all of those who helped us get ready for the launch party and for those who attended. We had a great time getting ready for the party as well as actually having the party last Sunday. I don't think either of us have ever made that many cupcakes and cookies at one time but we had fun with it :)

We held the launch party in one of the great event rooms at the Newburgh library. We baked ~100 each of our different flavors of cupcakes and cookies that we will be offering as well as ~100 cupcakes and cookies for the centerpieces which were decorated and for looks only. Below are some pictures from the party. Again, thanks to all who came and who helped us out!

Launch Party!

Who doesn't like a party? And even better, who doesn't like a party with free treats? I know I do!

Lindsay Marie and I decided to throw a launch party/open house to get the word out about La Marie's Confections. Formal invitations will be sent out to family & friends and we will post about the party on Twitter and Facebook in hopes to get a lot of traffic the day of the party! Check out the invites and envelopes that Lindsay Marie and I created - I am in love with them! These fab invites were put into the mail yesterday - signed, sealed, delivered!

The launch party will be held in one of the event rooms at the Newburgh Library on Sunday, November 1st from 2pm-4pm. We will be creating several different cupcakes and cookies for our guests to sample - lots of different flavors and for lots of different occasions. We are looking forward to displaying our treats for everyone to see!
