Press Release Body = Milton, DE - December 6th, 2006 - Bella\'s Cookies of Milton
released their special Holiday offerings this week. Known as Delaware\'s only all
natural and organic cookie company, Bella\'s makes available on select holidays
special cookie creations that are sold through through their online store. Among
the items offered this year are a few previous Holiday customer favorties as well as
some sneak previews of new cookies to expect in 2007.

You\'ll find speciality cookies on Valentine\'s Day, Easter, Mother\'s Day, Halloween,
and Thanksgiving... but December is the big month for Bella\'s. \"Cookies are a hands
down favorite this time of year,\" said Mark Leishear (Director of Sales & Marketing
for Bella\'s Cookies) \"and when our specialty cookies are available, people really
enjoy them.\"

The earliest Christmas cookies in America came with the Dutch (inventors of the
cookie) back in the 1600\'s. In 1796, American Cookery, written by Amelia Simmons
(considered by food historians as the first American cookbook) described making
rolled and cut sugar cookies, called Christmas Cookeys, but it wasn\'t until the
1930\'s when shaped cookie cutters became made of tin that the Christmas-cookie
explosion formally started.

In 2005 Bella\'s Cookies became Delaware\'s 1st all natural and organic cookie
company, named after owner\'s Kelly and Mark Leishear\'s 5 year old daughter Bella.
Unlike other cookie companies they started offering special cookies during certain
holidays; special cookies being cookies you might only find baked by your mother or
grandmother. Making a return to their cookie lineup this year is their \"Silver Lake
Shortbread,\" which is a clean ingredient version of a Twix bar, \"Snowballs\" or also
commonly called "Russian Tea Cakes," and \"Thumbprints\" which are delectable hand
rolled cookies filled with an organic red raspberry jam. New to their holiday
lineup is the holiday classic \"Gingerbread Man & Gingerbread Boys,\" which are
decorated with a non-hydrogenated buttercream icing, and customized with organic
gummi bears, organic peanut butter malted milk balls, Sun Drops (an organic version
of M&M\'s with no artificial colorings), or yogurt covered raisins, etc. Also
available this year are rum balls & rum cakes (made with Dogfish Head Brown Honey
Rum) and two new signature cookies... the \"Choco-Mint\" which tastes like a "Thin
Mint" and a preview of a 2007 release called the \"Woo-Woo\" a white chocolate cherry
cookie.

Bella\'s Holiday Cookies range in price from $7-20 and are available through online
and phone ordering. \"In December, we see a big increase in orders for gift baskets
with customized holiday cards. people enjoy sending their loved ones something from
Delaware, whether it be a basket of our standard cookies, or a mixed assortment of
the special holiday cookies\" said Leishear. Thank the Dutch for bringing cookies
to America, but thank your ancestors for starting the cookie craze around Christmas,
and Bella's for continuing on the tradition.

Bella\'s Cookies is Delaware\'s 1st all natural and organic cookie company and
specializes in the afforementioned, vegan cookies and holiday cookies. Holiday
cookies can be ordered via Bella's website at www.BellasCookies.com or by phone at
