Personalized Fortune Cookies for Baby Showers

Hey all! It's been a bit since my last post and for that I apologize. Right now I am six months pregnant with my first child and it is tough figuring out everything you need for a newborn. Once you figure it out and get a decent list... it almost seems worse! There are at least a 100 types of strollers, car seats, bottles, swings and bouncers and I am finding it difficult to figure out which one to get.

In the stores, I pull strollers off the shelves, take them apart and put them together again to see how difficult this will be once the baby is here. Then you have your registry, and the baby shower, and the childbirth preparation classes. Wow! I don't know about you but help would be great.

So below I have put together some links and resources for all the other soon to be moms out there and even for those of you that are moms and have even more to juggle and more experience.


First, lets talk baby showers. Since a baby is the most fortunate gift of all, why not share your good fortune with some personalized fortune cookies! The blueberry fortune cookies are perfect for a boy and the raspberry fortune cookies are SO cute for a little girl! Personalized fortune cookies are great birth announcements, baby shower favors, christening favors, and could even be used for fun baby shower games.

Next week I will have a great list of resources for expectant moms. But something I did run a cross that was pretty cool is Oprah wants you to share what you have been given at your baby showers. The worst gifts and the best gifts.

What is your idea of the PERFECT gift for an expectant mom? Share it with us!

Cookies for Christening

Here is a pretty unique and fun fortune cookie idea that I received today from one of our customers. They held a Christening at a Chinese restaurant and used chocolate dipped fortune cookies as a favor and decoration at each place setting. Here is what they had to say:

It is kind of hard to tell, but I had white frosted and silver frosted containers with either lite blue or purple ribbon. Each container had one custom fortune cookie inside and we put one container at each place setting. The christening was at a Chinese restaurant and we used a snowflake theme. It was actually snowing the day of the event, so it worked out perfect! I put the remaining fortune cookies in a basket on the dessert table with the same color ribbons.

Thanks again for everything ! A. Panagakos

They even enclosed a picture of how cute the fortune cookie boxes turned out!
I think something similar would be great for any holiday party, corporate get-together, winter weddings, and probably others that I can't think of right now. Plus, with the added touch of your personalized messages in every custom fortune cookies, it makes you a shoe in for the most memorable decor and favors!
