At Passion for Spices™, we were thrilled to host our Second Annual Cookie Baking Event for our Veterans, in collaboration with Summit Elks Lodge.

It was so wonderful to see the community of Summit coming together to support our veterans for this holiday season. It was a great way to thank wonderful men and women who served our country.

In our cookie baking team, we had many community leaders including one of our City Councilmen for Summit.

Everyone enjoyed the cookie making workshop, and it was a joyful event where we made the cookie dough, decorated the cookies, and packaged these special treats. It was a lot of fun!

We baked about five types of classic Christmas cookies including Spiced Gingerbread Cookies, Lemony Butter Cookies, Chocolate Star Cookies, Fridel Grandma’s Candy Cane Cookies, and Mini Chip Snowball Cookies.

There were fifteen members from the Summit Elks Lodge who came to cheer on the vets at the Christmas Party in the Lyons Veterans Hospital this week. It was such a pleasure to serve the vets a Christmas dinner, and at the end of the event the cookies were handed over to the vets. We are sure that they will enjoy the delicious treats.

We love this tradition at Passion for Spices™, and we will be continuing this every year. It is a great way to celebrate the holidays, and say thanks to our veterans.
