An extra value meal from [McDonald's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grinch-meal) has been turned into a cookie meal. In my opinion, this is one value meal that I would love to try. If you are a someone that likes to be inventive when they bake, or someone who enjoys eating baked good, this is perfect for you. The fast food sculpted cookie meal is sweet, not salty. At first glance, you would never know that the picture is made entirely from cookies. The combo includes a cookie cheeseburger, cola and fries that look extremely appetizing. The cookies were created by the [Twitter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mcdonalds-makunouchi-bento)-user's older sister who captioned the image by saying that "Can make anything out of cookies." I like to bake, but I definitely wish I was this artistic with my food. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.6/10 - Popularity: 43% | Activity: 28% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Cookie-based Fast Food:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Creating unique and visually appealing cookie-based fast food items for bakeries and specialty dessert shops. - **Creative Baking:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Developing innovative baking techniques and recipes to create visually stunning and delicious cookie meals. - **Artistic Food Presentation:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Exploring new ways to present food creatively and artistically, such as sculpting fast food meals out of cookies. ### Who This Affects Most - **Bakery:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporating cookie-based fast food items into bakery menus to attract customers with unique dessert options. - **Dessert:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introducing cookie meals as a new concept in the dessert industry and revolutionizing the way sweet treats are enjoyed. - **Food Presentation:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Providing artistic food presentation services to restaurants and caterers, showcasing visually appealing cookie-based meals. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Film-Inspired Holiday Meals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grinch-meal.md) - [Cookie-Flavored Mini Donuts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cookies-cream-lil-donut.md) - [Hackable Fast Food Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hacked-menu-items.md) - [Savory Cookie Porridges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oreo-congee.md) - [Nostalgic Adult QSR Meals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mcdonaldland-meal.md) - [Burger-Inspired Snack Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/choco-burger.md) - [Multisensorial Gourmet Cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nerds-sugar-crush-cookie.md) - [Convenient Meal Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/momofuku-and-milkbar.md) - [Content-Inspired QSR Meals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mcdonalds-as-featured-in-meal.md)
