“The world is ready for cruelty-free accessories. I think its important for us to be educated about what we are eating and about what we are doing. The more and more we learn about how horrible factory farming is, people become much more open to a cruelty-free lifestyle.”

Cornelia Guest will soon carry her vegan cookies in a sleek, stylish animal-free handbag.

A collection of leather-free bags, wallets and pet accessories are scheduled to debut in the fall of 2011, along with a jewelry line.

“I decided to do my own animal-free accessories collection so that I could design and wear things that I love, and so could my friends,” Guest wrote on her website.

Cornelia Guest has created her own line of vegan cookies.

The actress, author and socialite debuted these in a goodies bag given to attendees at a recent event for the New York Humane Society.

Guest hopes to sell the cookies, made with vegan chocolate and coconut oil, to bakeries, retailers and airports.

And she is really excited about the airline outlet.

“I really want my cookies to be on planes,” Guest said, according to the Wall Street Journal. “People should be able to have a healthy snack in the air.”

The packaging for the cookies reads, “No animals were hurt while making these cookies…I just have a bruises!”

The chocolate chip cookie is complete but Guest is currently trying to perfect another version–oatmeal raisin.

More information about the cookies can be obtained from the website, which currently exists in two different versions, but say the same thing, so that area of the business must still be in development as well.

Either way, CorneliasCookies or CorneliaGuestCookies will get you to the vegan cookie official you need.
