We specialize in small-batch, handmade cookies and curated treat boxes that are perfect for events, parties, and corporate gifting.
Our cookie menu includes classic flavors like chocolate chip, confetti cake, and red velvet, as well as more unique offerings like coffee cake, s’mores, kitchen sink, and boozy-inspired cookies like limoncello and mimosa. We’re also constantly rotating and releasing new flavors. For catering, we offer a variety of formats depending on the event, including mini cookies, individually packaged full-size cookies, cookie 4-packs, and larger dessert-style setups for gatherings.
In addition to cookies, we offer curated treat boxes designed to celebrate life’s moments both big and small, from birthdays and weddings to Mother’s Day and just because. We also create themed boxes centered around special interests like Taylor Swift, Harry Potter, and more. Each box includes a mix of our baked goods alongside items like stickers, bookmarks, confetti poppers, candies, and pre-packaged drinks, all thoughtfully sourced from small businesses across the US. Just like our cookie flavors we love creating new treat box themes. Ask us about customizations!
