Flowers and sweets aren't just for Valentine's Day; the combo is a surefire Mother's Day hit, too. Here, we rate 5 edible gifts, from super sugary to barely sweet, so there's something for every mom. As for the bouquet? Let this slideshow of the top-selling blooms from last year's holiday give you some ideas.

For the mom whose middle name could be Wonka...
Isabella's Cookie Company's Blooming Blossom Sugar Rush Cookies. She'll flip for these flower-shaped goodies, which are made with butter, eggs and buttermilk, and frosted with creamy vanilla icing and sprinkles.

For the mom who never packed a lunch box without a candy bar...
Cookie Panache's I Heart Mom Cookies. These adorable sugar cookies are decorated by hand with red, pink and white designs. Each treat is as big as the palm of your hand; sweettooths will love that they can "just eat one" and still get their sugar fix.


For the mom whose cookie jar is always full...
Lady Fortunes Flour Pots. Here's a bouquet of little sugar cookies dipped in pastel icing, embellished with candy dot centers, each one on a stick and planted into a terra cotta flower pot. We challenge any mom to walk past the enticing display and not sneak a nibble.

For the "I just need an afternoon pick-me-up" mom...
Cheryl's Gardening Mom Gift Tin. Each item in this assortment--which includes cookies (some frosted with buttercream), mini fudge brownies, buttercream layered chocolate cookie sandwiches and sweet pretzel clusters--comes individually wrapped, so if she eats just one a day, the last treat in the box will still be fresh by the time she gets to it.

For the mom whose sweets lean toward the savory...
