The OFFICIAL 2009 Gingerbread Man (Or Woman) Decorating Contest

December 8, 2009

The Great Gingerbread Cookie Decorate-off is over, and with a bevy of bejeweled bakery goods scattered amongst our break room tables, we have made our difficult but oh-so-satisfying decision.

But first, the cookies. Be warned – there are a lot of images after the jump.

Corey underwhelms with his rendition of a mall Santa after work. (Booze bottle and cigarettes are difficult to see, and also very inappropriate.)

Lisa’s cookie: Mistress.

Tammy and Lisa went topical with a pairing of newsworthy gingerbread cookies: Tiger and Mistress (respectfully).

Erik turned the creepy up to 11 with Mr. Sandman.

Karla’s grasp of fine art is only matched by her inability to leave the arms on her cookie. The armless Venus de Ginger, everyone.

Martha Stewart would be proud of Amie’s Martha tribute, complete with stockpot and stirrer.

If Heisman Trophy nominee and Nebraska Cornhusker Ndamukong Suh knew he’d have a cookie created in his likeness, he’d be assured the best week ever.

Peek-A-Boo, the Christmas Elf, explodes with good cheer and cuteness. So thanks for that, Becka.

Joey goes with a touch of morbidity thanks to a broken spoon, a bloody head, and a dead rollerblader.

Not everyone understands that this is the Celtics’ year, especially Justin. Which explains this Magic Johnson “Showtime” cookie.

An impressive head of brownie-assisted hair tops Teresa’s warm weather wishes: Bahama Mama

It’s a cookie. It’s an egg! It’s both. And thankfully, it’s here. Because, really, the original cookie that Cami devised is not appropriate for an All Ages Marketing Blog.

And finally – our winners..

An Honorable Mention goes to Melissa, who recreated Santa in the image of Kirby Schultz, complete with wire-frame glasses and candy cane sleigh.

Third Place goes to Jason, who accidentally flipped his cookie upside down and saw visions of Rudolph.

Lynell’s cookie: Gabriel Ann Halle Lu Lu.

Second Place lands in Lynell’s lap with HenkinSchultz’s guardian angel, Gabriel Ann Halle Lu Lu.

And finally, First Place goes to Wendy, who painstakingly knitted a sprinkle-laden sweater for Ginger. Sure, there’s no face. But…seriously. That was probably more work than it was worth.
