Pittsburgh PA and areas around the region have a unique wedding tradition
called the Cookie Table. I've talked to many people
around the country and Pittsburgh seems to be one of the few areas to utilize
the cookie table for weddings. It's a tradition that many Pittsburgher's
enjoy and look forward too. Not only are cookies delicious and fun to eat,
but the cookie table itself can be like a work of art. Many reception
halls arrange the cookies very artistically.
Please remember this is your wedding, so decide how a cookie table works best
for your reception. Remember if you are not a baker, it takes alot of
patience to bake many dozens of cookies. It's a great idea to have
relatives, friends, and coworkers help you on your cookie quest. Why not
pick a day or two and invite some friends over for a cookie baking party.
Be creative and come up with different ways to get all the baking done on time
for your Pittsburgh wedding.
How Many Cookies Do You Need To Make For A Cookie Table?
The rule of thumb is about 5 to 10 cookies per person attending your
reception. Of course, this all depends on your wedding and preferences for
your reception. You will find that most reception halls will tray your
cookies, if you drop them off before the reception. You are going to need
many dozens of cookies for your reception. For example, if you budget 5 cookies
/ person, and you invite 200 people, that works out to 1000 cookies. That
is about 83 dozen cookies that will need to be prepared for the wedding.
Enlist a lot of help from family and friends to help bake these many dozens of
cookies, candy, or treats.
