Georganne Bell — a Utah cookie artist, decorating coach and social media influencer — had just posted an Instagram photo of a decorated sugar cookie in the shape of the pointy-eared pack animal. The trendy treat, with its pearly white icing, feathery black eyelashes and a cherubic expression, instantly infatuated Bell’s 100,000-plus followers.
