Lounge in luxury at home, by the pool, or…anywhere in this beautiful and comfortable lace kimono cardigan.

It will look awesome with leggings in the fall, skinny jeans in the winter, cropped pants in the spring, or cut off shorts or a bathing suit in the summer. There really is nothing this beauty can’t do.

A Triple Jammy of Delicious!

One Jammy…. Two Jammy….. Three!

Three delicious types of Jammy Cookies from Little Nevas Bakery.  Jaded Jammies, Blonde Jammies and  Original Jammies.

Jammie Cookies

Little Nevas Bakery is owned and operated by Wendy Russo in Earlysville, Virginia.

Little Nevas Bakery

Wendy opened her own online bakery after years of baking for restaurants and shops in Florida and Virginia.  Many of her cookies are based on favorites that she remembers from her youth, and her Jammie collection is definitely a culmination of her memories.

Wendy’s Jammie Cookies are snuggle up, feel good cookie delights.  In her Jammie Sampler Pack she offers 2 of each flavor for only $10.00.

The Original Jammie is her traditional all butter sugar cookie with raspberry jam spooned in between 2 shaped cookies which are flavored with pure vanilla and almond extracts and then baked. They are similar to the well known Linzer cookies, but she makes them without the spices added to the cookie dough so the vanilla and almond flavors jump out at you.

The Blonde Jammie is also made with her popular sugar cookie dough and filled with delicious Apricot Jam.

For her Jaded Jammies she has 1 cocoa sugar cookie layer and and vanilla layer, filled with raspberry jam AND semi sweet chocolate chips. Double chocolate pleasure, not too sweet.

Apricot filled cookies

All of Wendy’s cookies are cello bagged and boxed, or packaged in cute clear containers, tied with a bow and topped with a personal note or card.  She ships everything USPS Priority Mail, so you’ll have delicious sweet treats in no time at all.  All baked with love just for you.  What a wonderful gift these Jammies would make.

Be sure to stop by her shop and give her Jammies and other baked delights a try.
