Sand Angels win Salesforce.com Cookie Throwdown!

It was a day of cookie scandal... Cookiegate they called it.

Here is the short, sweet (pun intended) version of the story.


Tim, my boyfriend, works for Salesforce.com. His office held a global cookie throwdown contest today. Sneakily, I sent Tim in with some cookies to submit, including the Sand Angels. More out of curiosity than anything, I wanted to see how the Sand Angels would fare in an unbiased, blind competition where no one knew of Batter Bakery or of me.

The verdict came at approximately 2pm... the Sand Angels were the champion!

Then the scandal ensued.

One of Tim's coworkers, "Joe" was convinced that HE should have been the winner, or at least the runner up. Our Sand Angel cookie submission had been made by an anonymous coworker. Enjoying his "championship," he sent an email out to a select group of coworkers detailing out what he and Tim had pulled off.... or so they thought.

It turns out that the email was accidentally sent to the ENTIRE department! All was exposed, and Joe was convinced he would then be awarded the rightful title of runner-up. He was dead set on highlighting the fact that "a professional baker" had baked the cookies, forwarding the email to the judges and contest officiants.

Tim gracefully rescinded the Sand Angels' championship title. As it turned out, Joe did not, in fact, even place in the competition. Poor Joe. Apologies that you did not place... but it is confirmed: SAND ANGELS ARE THE BEST COOKIES EVVVVVVERRRR!!!!!!!!!!! :-)
