Valentine's Day 2025 Prep!
Hello hello! Okay so this will not be all the options I'm doing for this pop up, but it's a start! Everything I am linking from amazon is also on my storefront and is an affiliate link.
Easy Minis!
First up, chocolate dipped "strawberries." Now for these I haven't decided on a cutter, I printed both in a 2" the new Heart Seed Strawberry or the older Chocolate Covered Strawberry. (which is also the cutter of the month for sizes 2"-3.5" so you can get it for $1 during the month of January). I think for these I'll do the Chocolate Covered Strawberry and use the newer ones in a 2.5" when I do the cookie cards - more on that later. But these would be so cute in here, individually heat sealed, and on top of crinkle shred. I plan on doing all "chocolate dipped" - some in white some in brown and half "drizzled" and the other half sprinkled in nonpareils.
Next, teacher apples! These are a little more expensive for packaging BUT, anything I have left over I'll 100% use for teacher appreciation in May. I think these apples are actually so cute and can be used on a desk with paper clips or something of that nature - so I don't think they'll end up in the trash! They're too cute. In these I wanted to do something SUPER simple. So I'll use the 2.5" Candy Heart Cutter with pastel-ish colors with the 2.5" Teacher Text Things Stencil in red (like the candy conversation hearts). Super easy super cute. Maybe some pink or yellow shred at the bottom - red would work too. I'm thinking I'll do red when I use them for teacher appreciation for sure.
Frosted Set!
Okay now frosted animal crackers! These are a 2.5" but 2" would be fine too. These are a tight fit but I want them in there snug and wonky (like they are in the box ya know?) So I'll be doing these just like the picture - pink and white with the sprinkle mix from Delta Sprinkles. I may individually bag them but I was thinking of putting them all in one large bag and then the box! With a white stretch loop and a tag! The boxes are from Uline and I love them so much - BUT they don't break down so you need room to store them. Also bright side - you don't have to put them together so I love that.
Conversation Hearts in a box. I'm using the Tiny 2" Candy Hearts Cutter and Judit's boxes. I think I'll get 3 in the box and alternate colors. I'll be using the 2" Candy Heart stencils in red like the traditional candy!
Skinny Singles!
First up, Skinny Single Roses. I hope these are a great seller! I printed myself a 6" and 8" - I think both will fit nicely. I plan on putting crinkle shred in the bottom to fill the small point then sealing the cookie in a bag, then placing it in the box. Ah I love it! I think I will use the 8" (I don't really have any spread and I think it will fit better for me).
Here are the rose boxes from amazon!
Next is Skinny Love You 2 Piece! I had some extra boxes from Judit and I love this set in here. This is the long 8 inch version!
Next is Fries Before Guys. This one I will have to come back to and add packaging picture for you but we will be doing a tutorial on Cut It Out Cutters Patreon on the packaging for this cutie! I'm using the 4" Crinkle Fry Cutter and I'm going to give you a file over on Patreon to print out on cardstock and cut with a cricut so you can make your own fry container!!! AHH I'm so excited. I've wanted to do this for years. I'll come back and post pictures once I get one made.
Bagged Singles!
I don't really know what size bag I'll be using until I actually have them in front of me so I just keep my bags in all sizes stocked up.
The only single I have printed at the moment is the 3.5" Cute Kiss. The rest are from the upcoming release so I'll add those here after the release Monday.
2 Piece Sets!
I'm doing three 2 piece sets that go with the theme "we go together like." I think I am going to package them in bags and then connect the two bags with an extra long bag topper. I haven't done this before - but it looks cute in my head.
3" on each for the sushi set
2.5" peach 3" eggplant from this squishies set
3" buttered toast cutter cut twice for peanut butter and jelly!
Cookie Cards!
All cutters are 2.5"
Mini Cookie Cakes!
These are so easy and I make the actual cookie cake the night before (buttercream and mini cookie already prepped though) and slap them together the day of/night before!
Pink Mini Tins - Recipe - Top cookie will always be a tiny 2 inch cutter. So a heart, lips, envelope, etc. I haven't nailed that down yet.
This is a picture of the Teacher Appreciation ones I did and they were a hit.
Thank you for all this info! Going to buy cutters now!! 🖤
