Professional Cookie Taster Heavyweight Crewneck Sweatshirt

Every December kitchen needs an inspector, and the official Holiday Division has finally issued a uniform. This sweatshirt is for the person who volunteers for quality control at every cookie exchange, who knows which tin holds the good shortbread and who is willing to test a second batch "just to be sure." The artwork is a round seal in the style of an official inspection badge, with a cookie at its heart and delicate snowflakes drifting around it. The curved wording reads "Professional Cookie Taster / Holiday Division," a wink at the serious work of sampling frosting, sprinkles and gingerbread. The design is printed in light ink, so the badge stands out boldly on dark garment colors. Underneath the humor is the Gildan 18000 heavyweight crewneck, a unisex fleece with a relaxed, true-to-size fit, ribbed cuffs and waistband, and a soft brushed interior. It is thick enough to handle a drafty kitchen and comfortable enough for a long afternoon of baking, decorating and taste-testing. Go up a size if you like room for a second helping. It is a fun present for the baker in your family, a teacher's holiday gift, a white-elephant winner or a neighbor who always shares their treats. Shipping is included in the price. Wash it inside out in cold water, tumble dry low, avoid bleach, and keep the iron off the print so the cookie seal looks fresh after every flour-dusted day.
