The baker behind the Los Angeles-going "Vote Pratt" cookies surprised Spencer Pratt with a personal thank you at a campaign event Saturday after her political-themed cookies became a national sensation.<\/p>\n
Daniela Romano, the baker behind the viral Spencer Pratt cookies that sparked a social media frenzy that also included Jimmy Kimmel's sister-in-law, told Pratt that orders are still pouring in from all over the country weeks after the cookie controversy first broke online.<\/p>\n
\u00ab"You've brought me so many orders, it's just incredible," Romano told Pratt. "I wanted to come and just return the favor.". <\/p>\n

The cookies have caused a stir online after a scandal erupted over their sale at a popular grocery store in Brentwood.<\/p>\n
Claims that Jimmy Kimmel's sister-in-law, Carly Kimmel, objected to a store selling candy in support of Pratt have sparked a social media storm.<\/p>\n
Now this attention is leading to orders from all over America.<\/p>\n
\u00ab"We're getting calls from all over the country," Romano told The California Post.<\/p>\n
\u00ab"I've had calls from Canada today. I've had calls from West Virginia, South Carolina, Florida. From all over the world. From Texas, most of Texas.". <\/p>\n

Demand has become so huge that Romano is still working on how to organize the delivery of cookies across the country.<\/p>\n
\u00ab"Oh, we're talking about thousands of requests," she said.<\/p>\n
For Romano, this success has special meaning. <\/p>\n

After decades spent growing his business in Pacific Palisades, Romano is now rebuilding it, opening a much smaller shop with the help of his brother and his team of bakers.<\/p>\n
The sudden surge in orders gave her business an unexpected boost during one of the most challenging periods of her life. <\/p>\n

\u00ab"It's definitely opened up a whole new sales opportunity," Romano said. "Now people know where I am because before they didn't know where I was.".<\/p>\n
At an event on Saturday, Romano told Pratt she was inspired by his campaign and his willingness to fight for local issues.<\/p>\n
\u00ab"I've worked in this city for 38 years, starting when I was 14," Romano said. "I saw you and thought, 'I could have done something.' Why didn't I do something? Why does he work so hard?"\u00bb<\/p>\n
\u00ab"You really impressed me," she added. "I thought, look at him, he's fighting for us, for our city.".<\/p>\n
Romano said the only challenge now is organizing the delivery of cookies to customers across the country. She's currently working on delivery and expects to begin accepting orders nationwide soon.<\/p>\n
\u00ab"People don't even worry about not getting them this week, next week, next week," Romano said. "They're all so beautiful and so patient.".<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
