CINCINNATI, Oh. (CNN) - We are used to seeing the presidential candidates' faces on campaign ads, political signs, and oversized buttons. But plastered on a cookie is probably something new for most folks, but not those in Cincinnati.

Continuing with a 20 year tradition, Busken's Bakery is selling cookies stamped with the White House hopefuls' caricature images.

If cookie sales are any indication of the election outcome, President Barack Obama has a slight edge over Republican Mitt Romney. The bakery's owner said their sales have accurately predicted the presidential winner each year since they started selling the candidate cookies.
