They taste as good as they look. I also received toffee which my husband is drooling over, saying it is the best toffee he has had in forever, and we are both inhaling our ginger cookies! Those ginger cookies are so pretty and so tasty...Matt is going to be very sad he is missing this as he is at National swim meet this week...we will save some for him! Margot, thank you so much for all of it, we love it. You are so generous...any one of those would have been plenty, but all three are over the top!
