3 days ago

Good Saturday (10/5/24) evening! Last night the Reid Park Zoo hosted one of their largest fundraisers, Zooscon 2024. Guests walked around the zoo sampling yummy food offerings from different food establishments in town, including us. Our bakers made: Jennifer - 12 doz Buckeyes and 7 dozen mini M&M brownies, Connie - 6.3 doz mini Anise Pizzelles and 2.7 doz Pumpkin Spice cookies with chocolate chips; Shirlianna - 9 doz adorable chocolate candy melt animal cupcake toppers, which Rene' used to decorate her 8.2 doz mini cupcakes, and Rene also made 7 doz mini Animal Cracker sugar cookies. Yum!Then Linda and Jennifer went, set up, and served at the zoo. Shirlianna and Jeff gave Jennifer and Linda a break, and covered the table for us. This was such a wonderful example of our team work! Thanks to the Reid Park Zoo Reid Park for having us! We hope everyone had a great time! ... See MoreSee Less
