The Flour Box team leaves for CookieCon in two weeks and we couldn't be more excited! We are literally going to take the Flour Box show on the road. Think fun cookie products, exciting cookie decorating demos, and meet members of our amazing team!!

The most perfect Valentine cookie activity for kids has to be painting cookies. These are commonly called PYO cookies - stands for Paint-Your-Own.

Not only are these cookies super easy to make and fun for kids to paint, there is virtually no clean up at the end of the party. They are great for a sleepover activity, birthday parties, and classroom parties. 

Check out this in-depth cookie tutorial to learn what supplies you'll need, how to make these cookies, and tips for painting. 

When it comes to cookie decorating, one of the most under appreciated tools in your kitchen might be your freezer! Your freezer will be helpful throughout the decorating process, especially with a very large cookie order, a busy cookie holiday season, or even just balancing a cookie project with a busy life schedule.

Before we get started, I want to mention that sometimes people can be uncertain about freezing. It's not cheating. It's not a short-cut. It's a tool in your kitchen that can help you be more efficient. So be confident if you choose to freeze after reading this post.
