We loved being back at the Galleria for the 2025 Kids Christmas Cookie Bake Off! It was a a beautiful day with the most beautiful and delicious cookies ever!
Here are the kids who came out and competed this year. They were all so brave and worked so hard on their cookies. We wanted them all to win!
The judges had a hard time choosing trophy winners. The competition was so tough, and all the contestants made the most wonderful cookies. But, alas, winners must be chosen. The awards went to:
Age Group 7-10, Most Festive Cookie: Ellie Spencer, Hot Cocoa Cup Cookies
Age Group 7-10, Best Tasting Cookie: Harper Lepore, Rudolph Butterscotch Cookies
Ages Group 7-10, Best All-Around Cookie: Neely Pinson, Super Snowman Surprise Cookies
Age Group 11-14, Most Festive Cookie: Brooklin Kinney, Snow Globe Cookies
Age Group 11-14, Best Tasting Cookie: Gavin Kinney, Peppermint Kiss Cookies
Age Group 11-14: Best All-Around Cookie: Madelynn Trippe, Strawberry Linzer Cookies (missing a photo of these but you can see them HERE on WBRC Good Day Alabama!)
If you did not win this year, please know that judging is subjective - come back next year and try again with different judges. But, most importantly, KEEP BAKING AND BRINGING JOY TO OTHERS THROUGH YOUR CREATIONS!
Here are some more amazing bake off cookies from this year!
We want to extend a big THANK YOU to Lori Groce and everyone the Hoover Chamber of Commerce for letting us use their terrace at the Galleria Mall.
Also, a big thank you to Tara Vice from Any Reason to Plan, LLC for decorating our judges' table space.
And, a special thank you all three of our sweet judges who volunteered their time and thoughtfully considered each and every cookie before selecting winners. We appreciate you so much!
If you attended the bake off, make plans to put your baking skills to good use at our summer bake sale to support Feeding America on July 18, 2026. For more info go to www.ittybittybakers.com/events
