New York Black & White Cookie

Black and white cookie made famous nationwide from the TV series Seinfeld, episode - The Dinner Party. If you ever travel to New York City, you must try this regional favorite, the B&W Cookie, which is really more of a cake than a cookie, covered with vanilla icing on one half of the cookie and chocolate icing on the other half. Make sure you try a fresh one from a real bakery to understand why this is a beloved NYC favorite.

This is a unique, artisan made, Black & White Cookie pendant necklace. Cookie is 1-1/8 inch across. Made of sturdy polymer clay, with a lead-free, antiqued silver colored bail 1/2 inch long. Signed and dated on the back. It is soooo New York and so very cool! I get compliments and smiles from people every time I wear it!

You will receive a cookie very similar to the one shown. Please contact me if you wish to see a photo of the actual cookie before you purchase.

I make these pins with the same attention to quality and detail as my doll house miniature Masquerade Masks.
