I have had this COOKIE TREE KIT since 1994 and have made 4-5 cookie trees, thru the years. Also many different sized star cookies and cookie ornaments. It make one of the greatest tree gifts for family and friends. It is always appreciated..trouble is no one wants to eat it!! It is so beautiful! It truely makes a lovely presentation, and fun to make. I believe Wilson sell the kit. Or try E-Bay. Mine was a gift from a cousin. Nancy...12/15/12
