DANVERS, Mass. (WHDH) -- A pastry shop in Danvers started a sweet showdown.

They make cookies for special events so how about candidate cookies for the presidential election?

"Cakes for Occasions" is making Mitt Romney and President Obama gingerbread cookies.

The back of the cookies also has the “Psychology of Eating a Gingerbread Cookie” which uses what part of the cookie you eat first to determine personality characteristics.

Each candidate gets a vote when someone buys their cookie.
