How it works
A cozy night of swapping & giving
Bake a batch
Bring a batch of your favorite homemade cookies and an empty container.
Swap & mingle
Trade with neighbors and leave with an assortment of holiday cookies.
Everyone votes
Guests taste and vote together. The crowd picks the People's Choice winner.
Sip some cocoa
Hot cocoa and a Brown Sugar Delights tasting table, on us.
The People's Choice Award
The crowd decides. We crown the winner.
There's no single judge. Every guest gets a vote, and business teams earn extra votes through donations to FIVE18.
At the end of the night, Brown Sugar Delights presents the award on stage, and the winner takes home a signature Brown Sugar Delights winner's box.
