Chocolate Covered Oreos and a GIVEAWAY!!!

I have mentioned before my love for the company Spinning Leaf and their cookie molds. I ordered my first cookie molds from them about 3 years ago and fell in love with the ease of making GORGEOUS chocolate covered Oreos. Then they came out with Nutter Butter molds and I fell in love with the ease of making chocolate covered Nutter Butters.

I recently placed an order for the Valentine's molds and they were a hit at Anya's school party. With that order, I also purchased the Easter egg mold so I would make sure I have it early. I can't wait to decorate those eggs... I think they will be ADORABLE!


One of the best things about this company is not just their molds but their customer service. I have never had a problem with them and whenever I have emailed, I have received a response within 24 hours, usually sooner. Also, along with every order they send a free sample mold! How cool is that?

I have been planning on hosting this giveaway for a few weeks now and it occured to me two days ago to let the folks at Spinning Leaf know about it. I had no intention of anything coming from it other than to tell them that I was a satisfied customer and that I wanted to spread the word about the cookie molds. I recieved an email back stating that not only were they happy that I was doing this giveaway but that they would like to donate FIVE molds for it! I was floored and extremely excited!


This giveaway is for 5 cookie molds of your choice from Spinning Leaf. Once the winner is announced, I will send over the shipping information and mold choices to them and they will ship them out to you!

You have the ability to enter this giveaway up to 3 times. Here's how:

Entry #1 - Visit Spinning Leaf and leave a comment here telling me which mold is your number one choice.

Entry #2 - Become a follower of my blog and leave a comment letting me know you are following. (Link on sidebar) If you are already a follower, please leave a comment stating so.

Entry #3 - Become a fan of Spinning Leaf on Facebook and leave a comment letting me know.

Please leave a seperate comment for each entry. I understand that this can be a pain, but it will help me when it comes time to count each entry. :)

The giveaway will run from today through 10 PM EST on Monday, February 15. The winner (chosen at random from random.org) will be announced Tuesday, February 16.

    Hi, I have been looking for this type of thing for a long time. I love anything that has to do with hearts. I really like your Valentine's hearts -candy hearts.

    My favorite time of the year is Valentine's day. It's my birthday on Valentine's day too. In February it's cold and lots of snow on the ground. It usually snows on my birthday. To bright up this cold winter day in February, I love to pull all things with hearts, it make me feel warm inside to see all red, pink and heart shapes everywhere. I love to make a lot of chocolate treats with heart shapes 1 week before, through valentine's day and 1 week after. Heck, this year at Christmas time I brought a package of candy hearts just to bring the warmth in. (I can't believe that they sell Valentine stuff around Christmas).

    So I am so glad that I found these molds and hope I win one and in the future buy more molds from you. Thank you so much!

    I have never heard of these molds either - what a wonderfully fattening idea :)

    My favorite would have to be the snowman face.

    It was really hard for me to pick an absolute favorite, but I think I'll go with the Music Notes. I love the Baby Feet and the Baby Blocks-they tied for an incredibly close 2nd place. I think I will have to go shopping at Spinning Leaf even if I don't win the prize. I have some baby showers I'll be planning in the near future and the music notes would be great treats for my piano students! But I hope I win!!!

    Love your blog, Cristine!

    What a fun and fabulous giveaway- thanks so much for running this contest and recommending such a unique product!

    I went to the Spinning Leaf Website and I'm having trouble choosing my #1 favorite cookie mold- there's so many I'd love to have in my pantry! I especially like the cherry blossom, big heart, and oh, the May Flower- SO CUTE!

    I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the drawing... thanks again :)
