Saturday Spotlight: Top 10 Mothers' Day Cookies

 

After two weekends off from the Spotlight (thanks for your patience with my absence, BTW), I have little choice but to hop-skip-and-jump from the last holiday directly onto Mothers' Day! Once again, in what seemed like the blink of an eye, I am suddenly behind the cookie-eight ball! 

If you haven't yet started the design work for your mom's special set, it's time to get cracking, of course! The good news is: this week's hot list* has plenty of inspiration to help you get started. Though much of it is of the floral variety, it's interesting to see the many different ways flowers can pop up (pun intended). Here, you'll find them in a headdress on a lovely maiden, in a voluptuous bouquet in a flower pot, as subtle accents on larger pieces, and even as frilly lace-like trims on hearts. Whether you borrow these ideas directly (with permission, of course!) and execute them to perfection as their creators did, or do something more basic and perhaps even flawed (God forbid! ), your mom will treasure your cookie gift because it's an expression of your heart, crafted with love and care.

Congrats to this week's honorees, and thanks to them for sharing their talents with us!

Again, a huge round of applause to the talented cookiers on this week's hot list! Have a great weekend, everyone!

* As a reminder, a word about how the rankings are determined: The rankings are not at all subjective. In fact, they are determined essentially by you, our members, and the activity (number of views, likes, and comments) you've bestowed on each photo. The site uses a top-secret algorithm that weighs these various factors to determine which photos are trending most quickly (i.e., are the "hottest") over specified periods of time. As such, the hot list at the time of this announcement may look a little different a few hours or a day from now as more photos are added to the site.

So that no one has an unfair advantage in making it onto a hot list, the algorithm is secret even to site administrators. Only our platform developers know the code, which has been exhaustively tested by those developers and Cookie Connection staff.

All photos shown here are the courtesy (and copyright) of the designers listed.

To check out our other hot lists, at any time of day, visit our Hot Spot, also found in the site's main navigation line.
