Cookie Connection on NPR

Well, have I got exciting news for you and for Cookie Connection! 

Thanks to The Cookie Architect, I was contacted by a colleague of hers at National Public Radio (NPR) while traveling in Portugal last week. Long story short, the reporter there was doing a story on the explosive interest worldwide in cookie decorating and I was interviewed, on behalf of Cookie Connection, as part of that story - a story which stars Rebecca Weld (The Cookie Architect)!

Here's a link to both the audio and related online piece, where some of our Best of 2013 contest winners were also featured: http://www.npr.org/blogs/thesa...a-feast-for-the-eyes

As I've said before (see the intro to my Ultimate Cookies): Move over, cupcake! The decorated cookie has arrived!

Just moving your post below the one with the article link! 

Nice article.  Cookies are cooler than cupcakes!

That's how I found out about this site.  Now I'm obsessed!

Ha! Glad you found us, kkearns! We are a passionate and obviously cookie-obsessed community! 

That is great! Congratulations on being featured! I think that a really important thing to note also is how willing cookie-rs are to share. I learned everything from blogs and online tutorials. Sweet Sugar Belle was my personal teacher! I am not anywhere as good as most other cookie-rs but I do make people stop and look sometimes!
