"Invention Defies Convention”

...Some parents tell their kids not to play with their food. But if you're David Wild, you want kids to play with their food. Wild, 37, and his sister, Lisa Saffeir, 39, started a cookie business in 1990 and recently launched Color-a-Cookie, a line of cookies with patterns printed on the icing and packaged with food-safe colored markrs. Kids color inside the lines and then eat their creations. Now the Plainview-based business sells more than $4 million worth of cookies and counts Safeway, Target and Song Airlines among its customers.

"Food Coloring”

Anyone who has dined with a toddler knows that the key to a peaceful meal is a fully stocked bag of distractions, chief among them coloring books and sweets. Several producers who exhibited at the recent Fancy Food Show in New York have begun offering a treat that combines both: iced cookies that can be colored with food-grade markers and then eaten. Among the producers, Color-a-Cookie of Plainview, N.Y., offered a wide assortment of cookie images, including several characters licensed from popular kids' shows, from SpongeBob Squarepants to Dora the Explorer and Elmo. It's about as close as kids get to eating their TV.
