Orlando is a cookie city. Between theme-park magic, a bustling convention scene, and family-first neighborhoods, there’s an endless stream of events that call for edible art. Here are the five trends we’re baking—and seeing—every week across Central Florida.
1) Disney & Iconic Orlando Mashups
From mouse-ear silhouettes to princess color palettes and fireworks gradients, Orlando’s love affair with on-brand whimsy isn’t slowing down. The key is inspired-by styling with original design details: think jewel-tone lusters, tiny bow elements, castle-sky ombrés, or skyline outlines that nod to local landmarks. These sets photograph beautifully, drive shares, and make great keepsakes for park-day celebrations, hotel welcome gifts, and proposal moments.
2) Personalized Party Favors That Double as Place Cards
Names, dates, and monograms have moved from “nice to have” to “non-negotiable.” We’re laser-focused on clean lettering, high-contrast palettes, and shapes that cue the occasion—onesies for baby showers, jerseys for sports birthdays, or elegant arch cookies for weddings. For seated dinners, we’ll match the font and color of the printed menus and add guest names so each cookie becomes a place card you can eat.
3) Corporate Logo Cookies for Conferences & Teams
Orlando’s convention calendar fuels a constant demand for edible branding. We produce color-accurate logo cookies for booth giveaways, VIP kits, and team events, packaged for easy transport. Pro tip: consider a two-cookie bundle—logo on one, campaign tagline on the other—sealed in a single bag. It boosts perceived value and gets photographed more often.
4) Seasonal “Drop” Collections
Limited-edition drops—Valentine’s, Spring Break, Grad, Halloween, and Holiday—give locals a reason to come back. We keep these tight (3–5 designs), pre-priced, and pre-packaged, so ordering is quick and production stays efficient. Expect rich textures (quilted fondant details, royal-icing line work), metallic accents, and playful scent cues like vanilla-orange or peppermint for winter.
5) Health-Conscious & Allergen-Aware Options
Requests for gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegan bakes are steadily rising. We maintain dedicated prep protocols, separate tools where applicable, and clear labeling. While decorated cookies will always be a treat, these options make it easier to include everyone—especially in school events and corporate environments. Ask us about low-colorant designs and natural hues, too.
How to Choose the Right Set (Fast)
- Audience first: Is this for kids, executives, or a mixed crowd? That determines flavor lineup and packaging.
- One focal shape, two supporting shapes: Keeps sets cohesive and cost-efficient.
- Plan for photos: Add one “hero” cookie sized larger for the center of the platter—your Instagram moment.
Packaging & Pickup Tips
For large events, we recommend individually sealed cookies with a coordinating sticker or ribbon. Hotel delivery and venue drop-off are available with advance scheduling. Flying out? We’ll pack for the overhead bin and include handling notes.
Frequently Asked Questions
- How far in advance should I order?
- For custom sets, 10–14 days is ideal; seasonal drops often sell out, so earlier is better.
- Can you color-match my brand or invitation?
- Yes—send a high-res logo or invite PDF and we’ll match within typical food-color tolerances.
- Do you ship?
- Custom cookies are best for local pickup or delivery; select gift sets ship nationally (ask for current options).
