The bakery does use a dedicated printer that is free of any previous printing inks, so it\u2019s recommended for a bride not to try this on her home system.<\/p>\n<p>The endless possibilities for the use of cookies as wedding favors, provides for a couple to infuse originality and fun into the European tradition of giving confectionery delights.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a class=\"broken_link\" href=\"https:\/\/favorideas.com\/shopping\/cookie-wedding-favors.html\">Shop Gourmet Cookie Wedding Favors<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Kevin Stith Cookies as wedding favors create an unique twist on the time-honored tradition of providing small gifts to guests, as a token of appreciation from the bride and groom.
