Sacha Patrick from Twickenham proved she has the biggest sweet tooth of them all.

Ms Patrick and her friend Ionna Grant visited the Maryland Innovation Centre in Edinburgh for a day of cookie tasting and making.

The pair had the luxury of tasting a variety of different cookies and also provided feedback which they thought would help the brand to reach its audiences taste buds.

The ladies were then given the opportunity to make their own cookie and turn it into a desired reality.
