What should I do?

This is my code

    return Response::make(View::make('pages.home'))->withCookie($cookie);

Route::group(array('before' => 'setcookie'),function() 
{
    Route::get('/', function() {
        return View::make('pages.home');
    });

    Route::controller('productrest', 'ProductRestController');
    Route::resource('product', 'ProductController');

You can use the Cookie::queue function of laravel.

Route::filter('cookie',function(){
    Cookie::queue('key', 'value', 5);
});

From Laravel doc :

Queueing A Cookie For The Next Response

If you would like to set a cookie before a response has been created, use the Cookie::queue() method. The cookie will automatically be attached to the final response from your application.
