Valentine's Day Cookies

As featured on the Martha Stewart show today, The Jewels of New York is offering their unique and dazzling Valentine Day coookies. They are sugar cookies topped with a special jam, consisting of lychee, prosecco, and tart raspberries. The cookies are beautifully decorated to look like a jewel.

The company is founded by two young women, Diana Yen and Lisel Arroyo. I saw their segment taped live on the Martha Stewart show. The cookie itself is a simple sugar cookie (without baking soda, which surprised Martha). To make the jam, they blended the lychee and poured the mixture with a jar of raspberries and prosecco. I would imagine this to be quite sweet and tasty! The application of the jam and sprinkles looks to be the most time consuming part of the process. At $25 for 4 cookies...even Martha said that they should be charging more money!

As for myself, I think I'll eat chocolates on Valentine's Day!
