NEW YORK, Dec. 16, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Callaway Digital Arts (www.callaway.com), interactive publisher of premium children's and lifestyle applications for the iPad, and Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia Inc. (NYSE: MSO) today announced that the Martha Stewart Makes Cookies application is now available for the iPhone and iPod Touch for $2.99 in Apple's App Store. The app provides home bakers with all the inspiration, information, tools, and functionality they need, including 50 recipes, shopping lists, "how-to" videos, and techniques. Additionally, a free version of Martha Stewart Makes Cookies for iPad is now also available in the App Store.

Already a hit on iPad, the Martha Stewart Makes Cookies app brings together the beautiful design, trusted recipes, and culinary "how-to" expertise that are hallmarks of the Martha Stewart brand along with the cutting-edge functionality and innovation that has distinguished Callaway's digital media offerings. This is the first of several apps that MSLO and Callaway are developing together.

"Whether you're an accomplished baker or someone who is first learning the baking basics, Martha Stewart Makes Cookies is a fabulous app that is fun and easy-to-use," said Martha Stewart, Founder of MSLO. "I'm especially happy that our innovative new app is now available on the iPhone and iPod Touch, just in time for the holidays when so many of us are celebrating the season by baking cookies for friends and family!"

"Martha Stewart Makes Cookies was an immediate bestseller on the iPad, and now bakers experienced and new can bring Martha Stewart's iconic cookies into their homes with their iPhones as well," said Callaway Digital Arts Chairman and Chief Creative Officer Nicholas Callaway. "Clear instructions, gorgeous photographs, and state-of-the-art technology combine to create an app that truly sets the standard for cookbooks in the digital age."

Features of the iPhone and iPod Touch app include:

• A visual "cookie runway" that allows users to search through all of the app's 50 recipes
• Shopping lists that can be emailed 
• Ability to share favorite cookies via e-mail or Facebook
• Sumptuous photographs of all kinds of cookies
• Baking tips and techniques 
• 11 easy-to-follow "how-to" videos
• A glossary of tools for mixing, baking, and decorating
• Links directly to macys.com, where users can purchase necessary equipment and more

Martha Stewart Makes Cookies Lite for iPad is also now available in the Apple App Store. This free app lets users explore the "cookie runway" and enjoy eight of Martha Stewart's signature cookies with fully functional recipes and features from the original app.

Martha Stewart Makes Cookies is both a baking resource and a cookie gift guide for the holiday baker. The app is expected to be updated with 25 additional recipes in January, just in time for Valentine's Day. 

The Martha Stewart Makes Cookies app is available for $2.99 from the Apple App Store on iPhone and iPod Touch or at www.itunes.com/appstore.
