Baby Shower Cookies in Glendale, AZ: Ideas for Showers, Sprinkles and Gender Reveals

Baby shower cookies do two jobs at once: they decorate the dessert table and they go home with guests as favors. If you are hosting a shower in Glendale, Peoria or anywhere nearby, here is how to plan a set that fits your theme.

Start with the invitation

The easiest way to design shower cookies is to match the invitation. Send a photo of it with your order and the colors, fonts and little illustrations can carry straight onto the cookies. This makes the whole party look planned, even if you threw it together in two weeks.

Popular baby shower cookie designs

• Onesies, bottles, rattles and baby blocks
• The baby's name or initials on a plaque cookie
• Animals and themes: safari, woodland, bears, bees, wildflowers
• Soft neutrals for a modern, gender-neutral shower
• "Oh baby" and "welcome little one" lettering

Gender reveal cookies

Cookies can keep a secret. A set in pink and blue with "he or she?" lettering builds the suspense for a reveal party. If you want the cookies to stay neutral so nobody guesses early, say so in your order.

Sprinkles and second babies

A sprinkle is a smaller shower for a second or third baby, and it suits cookies well. A dozen or two in a sweet theme is often the whole dessert plan.

Favors or dessert table?

For favors, plan one bagged cookie per guest. For a dessert table with cake, you can order fewer. The full math is in how many custom cookies to order.

Ordering for a shower

Showers are often hosted by a friend or relative, so make sure whoever orders has the date, guest count and theme. Send the order ticket a few weeks ahead, attach the invitation as inspo, and note any allergies. Cookies contain wheat, eggs and milk.
