BEDFORD HEIGHTS, Ohio — Brand Castle, a supplier of interactive baking kits, is offering families three new ways to make the holidays a bit sweeter this year with the introduction of cookie kits. The kits include: In The Mix Ninjabread Cookie Kit; In The Mix Ugly Sweater Cookie Kit; and In The Mix Star of David Dipped Sugar Cookie Kit.
The company's In The Mix Ninjabread Cookie Kit includes gingerbread cookie mix, royal icing mix, candy beads, a piping bag and four plastic ninja cookie cutters. The kit yields 12-to-16 cookies.
In The Mix Ugly Sweater Cookies celebrate the tacky (but fondly remembered) holiday sweaters. The Ugly Sweater Kit makes eight-to-10 cookies and includes sugar cookie mix; red and green frosting mixes; heart, snowflake and candy cane-shaped candies; red and green sprinkles; rainbow grande nonpareils; two piping bags; and a plastic sweater cookie cutter.
The Star of David Dipped Sugar Cookie Kit contains enough supplies to make eight-to-10 cookies. It also includes: sugar cookie mix, blue vanilla flavored melting wafers, brown chocolate-flavored melting wafers, Star of David shaped cookie cutter and two piping bags.
"The holiday season is known for honoring rituals that celebrate family togetherness," said Jimmy Zeilinger, president of Brand Castle. "Our holiday-themed baking kits, including the Ninjabread Cookie Kit, Ugly Sweater Kit and Star of David Dipped Sugar Cookie Kit are the ideal activity to foster this closeness and will surely become another treasured tradition that generations will look forward to every year."
The kits can be purchased at Target, Walmart and additional retailers across the country.
