A VERY HONEST REVIEW : I've always ordered from Corso's for gifts for other people. I've placed well over ten orders, for almost every occasion whether it be a birthday, congratulations, a cheer up gift, Valentine's Day, or just because. The cookies have always arrived quickly and on time (if I chose to pick a date). However, I have never tasted/tried/seen the cookies myself, just photos from friends and so forth when they had received them. I stumbled across the reviews on Google and other sites, and I was dumbfounded. To be honest, I panicked because many reviews complained about the awful taste of the cookies. I thought to myself, "have I been giving bad cookies as gifts to everyone?" I decided to solve it for myself and I finally ordered a cookie bouquet for myself. The cookie box arrived today - which is why I'm reviewing. The cookies were much larger than I had expected. They were extremely bright, vibrant, and overall just fun to receive. They were packaged in a box with a pretty white ribbon and little cards. I loved it. I finally tried them. They were good. Not bad, but not amazing. Nothing to write home about. It definitely tasted better if you heat them up in the microwave first. A lot of reviews said they were bland or too sweet and I didn't find that at all. The truth is, they are expensive so if you are expecting top notch cookies then it may be best to go to a local bakery or grocery store where the prices aren't as high and you can have a taste for yourself first. I can understand why some people are disappointed for the price. HOWEVER, to me, all the fun is getting a vibrant, beautifully packaged order in the mail. The cookies are fun. They are colorful. They have a lot of life to them. To me, I always prefer to receive things in the mail for gifts or otherwise, it's just more exciting that way. Also, if you look online - ALL online cookie shops or food arrangement shops are overpriced, and I mean ALL of them. I compared prices to other cookie decorating sites online, all the same prices, a lot of sites were more. And for any kind of delivered arrangement whether it be chocolate strawberries, a fruit basket, or fresh flowers - they are ALWAYS overpriced. They are pershiable items (which is why the shipping costs so much - because they have to be delivered relatively quickly and carefully) and any store has the same price as Corso's. Corso's also posts coupons almost every other day for at least 20% off, usually for more. They send them out via email and also posted on their site. Overall, I will continue to order from Corso's with coupons. I think a lot of these other reviews are expecting far too much. Keep up the good work, Corso's, I'll...

Read moreI ordered the Christmas themed cookies for a small event I was hosting and was super excited when they arrived in the mail. However, when I took the cookies out of the package, all of my cookies arrived broken. The cookies could not be used for the event, or even eaten as they were broken so badly it was pretty much all crumbs. When I contacted Corso's Cookies with images of the cookies still wrapped to show they were broken, I never got a response. I am very dissatisfied with the product and the...
