EDMONDS, Wash. — The owner of Edmonds Bakery is apologizing following social media uproar over politically-charged Valentine’s Day cookies.
Ken Bellingham says he’s responsible for the cookie in question – a pink heart frosted with “Build that Wall.” The cookie was in his display case Thursday. He said he only made one of the design.
But he says he’s been making the style of Valentine’s cookies – some more suggestive than others – for years.
“Some are a little risqué, some are nice,” he said. “I’m back there trying to think of what to write on a cookie. I try to be funny.”
The "Build that Wall" cookie is getting more attention online.
