Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
[East] Cookie Brigade EAST 2012 - Bake Cookies, help Child's Play!

People have definitely brought cookies in their luggage before. Just make sure they are packed tightly and cushioned well around the edges so the baggage throwers don't destroy them.

Also, just a note to people who are making things, we also take candy for the people who can't have gluten. Last year, we had someone make hard candy in the shape of Space Invaders that were really cool. If you can make amazing hard candy, chocolates, or gummies, make them as well.
Me too! Very tempted to make some!
If you applied and were not approved, please send a PM for more information.

Do you mean the chocolate popcorn in the baggies?
If so I can ask my step mother to make more again, she was happy to make it last year so I can't imagine she would mind making more.

That must have been it, yes
By all means go for it!
They were quite popular, along with the rice krispie treats. I can't make cookies because my oven is a entrance to hades, so I was planning to do rice krispie treats along with the candy I normally make.

Sweet! Thank you! I might cook up a batch or so. Also, no premade store bought things aren't worthy are they? haha
Well, if she was 'selling' cookies, then she wasn't part of the Brigade. Remember that we only give cookies away and if someone wants to give us a donation while we're there, then great! There might be some... issues with the coffee idea but I'm not sure. Regardless, it's a topic that's better off the open forum. Why don't you sign up on the Cookie Brigade website, where it could be discussed more openly? www.cookie-brigade.com
Premade store bought things are fine. The more the merrier! Besides, hungry conventioneers won't care if you have store bought cookies, they just want COOOKKKIES.

YAY! This makes it so much easier then. I can just pick up some "home made" cookies around Boston then haha
If I remember correctly, Sat morning (and/or Sunday?), the BCEC had a small vending cart walking around the queue room with coffee, donuts and small things like that for sale. I wonder if the BCEC is planning on having more of those going around in the early morning too and might not look favorably on giving away coffee.
The BCEC does not allow any food to be distributed inside the convention center other than the food that comes from their vendors. I very strongly suggest that you sign up on the Cookie Brigade website to discuss the issue further.

I would heed LexiconGrrl's advice that if you want further clarification/discussion on that point, sign up for the cookie brigade website and discuss details there.

Please be mindful that this does not replace the Cookie Brigade website, but it will be used during PAX itself.
Oh alright! Thank you! I was about to ask where it is should I drop off the baked goods. You beat me to the punch haha
Short answer: No.
Long answer: There's never an exact number as lots of folks just drop in unannounced to help out (or sign up but never show up), but we always need distributors! We're currently launching a new intake process that Ransim designed (it's really awesome) that hopefully will give us a better idea of how many folks we can plan on. It's going to help the planning and logistics a lot!

Non-cookie sweets have gone over well in the past. I know the rice crispie treats at East last year were very popular. I've made Space Invaders hard candy a few times:
We've also had popcorn with chocolate and I think cupcakes that I know of in the past.
OMG! I would so buy 10 of those things and nibble on their tentacles! Erm...
Behold the Glory that is the Fuck You Snickerdoodle:
