Have you seen The Cookie Countess Black Friday Deals yet? You can get a sneak peek and make a plan for supplies you need. I’m sure you’re going to find inspiration for all your sweets when you start looking at the products on her site. I feel like Hillary keeps me up to date on new products. Did you know what Roxy & Rich Sparkle Dust Pumps were? I didn’t until she showed them on her site. It looks like a great way to brighten a cookie or add a little sparkle to your cakes. I can’t wait to try them.
Speaking of new tools, the Precision Rolling Pin is my new favorite. Don’t get me wrong, I still use my J.K. Adams 19″ x 2″ Maple Wood Rolling Dowel for pies, biscuits and chasing away bears (not really, I have a cowbell for that), but the Precision Rolling Pin is now the fav for making cookies. The cookie dough is the perfect thickness every time no matter how hard I push down when I roll it out.
So Hillary keeping me up to date on products and gives me options for perfect accessories like stencils, molds, food gel colors, airbrush colors and so many things that make me a better decorator. She inspires me. She helps supply my cookies with personality, sparkle and video tutorials that makes things simple. Thanks, Hillary!
If you’ve listened to the podcast I’m sure you’ve heard how Georganne and I decided to take some money from Hillary’s poor husband Jon at Cookie Con 2014. We gave it back, but the look on Jon’s face and the joy on Georganne’s face were hysterical. So here’s a tip for you, if you go to Cookie Con, don’t carry your money in your back pocket. Who knows what Georganne and I might do! 😉

I love all of Hillary’s products. Recently got the 3/8″ rolling pin. Hoping for the 1/4″ for Christmas.
I hope you get it Sondra! It’s the only way to roll! 😉
How about naming your pin “Nellie” because once you see how perfect she rolls you can exclaim, “Woah Nellie!!” No cowboy hat required. ?
This made me laugh Christy! AWESOME!!

I’m loving the Baker’s, BFF Madeline! THE Pin sounds a little scary to me! Hehehehe
Thanks everyone for you comments and for listening to the podcast!! Lisa and I were more trying to think of what to name our personal “Precision Rolling Pins” – like Big Bertha, or Ready Freddy, or Pete the Pin… 😉 You get the idea!
