Brand: Melissa & Doug Product: Slice & Bake Cookies

Review Topics: Baby, Educational, Food & Drink, Household Products, Toys

Cookies! Well, pretend cookies anyway. Cookies that you get to slice, bake, decorate, and eat. What could be more fun?

Melissa and Doug has a super fun set of wooden sliceable cookies. The full set includes 12 wood discs with velcro, 12 toppings with sprinkles or chocolate candy, spatula, knife, cookie sheet (also with velcro), cookie tube (storage for cookies and toppings) and an oven mitt.

The cookie tube looks like one of the slice and bake tubes that you can get from the grocery store. The cookies have velcro on them so they are easily “sliced” apart with the wooden knife. The 12 cookies all stick together so they come out of the tube in one piece, just like the grocery store tubes.

The cookies are then cut apart and placed onto the cookie sheet!

Then you can bake the cookies. Just make sure to remove them from the oven with your oven mitt!

Let the cookies “cool”, then you can decorate the cookies with frosting in your choice of vanilla and chocolate (there’s 6 of each). The frosting attaches to the cookies with velcro. There are different icing patterns and candy or sprinkles too.

Once the cookies are all decorated, use the wooden spatula to remove the cookies from the cookie sheet.

Serve them up and enjoy!

This is a great toy for preschoolers and toddlers too. It develops imaginary play and fine motor and even prewriting skills. It can also help teach following directions as you can ask for specific orders. You can also work on patterns and counting.

As with a lot of Melissa and Doug toys, these are made with high quality, durable, and very pretty wood. They will last practically forever (assuming you don’t lose them!)

This is one of our favorite toys to play with together. Froot Loop asks to bake cookies with me all the time, but I really don’t want to have cookies in the house at all times (I have no cookie self control). I love it when he gets them out and bakes them for me.

What were the last cookies you baked?

Firenze McCowald - November 21, 2017 4:41 PM

*Wow*! That is such a fabulous idea! Melissa & Doug has always made toys that are favorites around here, but VELCRO to hold the "slices" together? - that is just genius!!!

Mama Writes Reviews - November 21, 2017 7:58 PM

Yes, they thought of everything!!!

Amanda - November 21, 2017 5:08 PM

So fun!! Mom confession: the last cookies I made were no bake cookies because my kiddos don't like them which means I get more. *hangs head with guilt*

Mama Writes Reviews - November 22, 2017 11:53 PM

HAHAHAHAHA! I LOVE IT!

Amanda from Hustle & Mom - November 21, 2017 5:21 PM

My daughter loves to play pretend in the kitchen. I bet she would love these cookies to add to her kitchen collection.

They've been a really awesome addition to ours!

Elise Cohen Ho - November 22, 2017 1:13 AM

That is pretty cool. I like that it brings them the whole way through.

Yes! I agree.

Emmanuel Damian - November 22, 2017 6:09 AM
