Choose between frosted cookies and gourmet cookie flavors. Edible cookie arrangements and bouquets generally contain two types of cookies. Frosted cookies can be shaped into various shapes and covered with colorful frosting. Cookies that resemble flowers can be arranged into flower bouquets or to look like any other imaginable item. For example, you can buy gourmet cookie bouquets in the shape hearts for a romantic gift. The more traditional type of cookie arrangement includes various gourmet cookie flavors. For example, you can order a chocolate chip cookie bouquet made of chocolate chip cookies. In this case, the chocolate chip cookies are arranged in a beautiful basket or bouquet but the cookies look like chocolate chip cookies and are not "disguised" as other items using shapes and frosting. Either type of cookie arrangement, bouquet or basket can be attractive and delicious.

Choose between a basket, bouquet, box or other arrangement. The packaging of the edible cookie arrangements is integral to the entire gift. For an edible cookie bouquet, frosted cookies are shaped and arranged on sticks to resemble a flower bouquet. This type of arrangement can be expensive. Edible cookie baskets are filled with all sorts of cookies and decorated with bows, ribbons and other decorations. This choice accommodates large cookie arrangements, as baskets can easily hold more cookies than a cookie bouquet. Cookie boxes contain cookies neatly and delicately arranged in boxes. Boxes can be covered if cookie arrangements will be delivered or left open if they are on display. This choice allows for easy handling and storing.
