Hi, I’m Melissa—a lifelong Arlington local, mom of two, and passionate home baker. Baking has always been a creative outlet for me, and after years of making cookies for friends, family, and special events (plus plenty of encouragement along the way), I decided to turn my love for baking into something more. What started in my home kitchen has grown into a small business I’m so excited to share.

By day, I balance a full-time career and family life, and by night (and whenever I can sneak in the time), you’ll find me baking up my signature large, gourmet bakery-style cookies. Each one is made from scratch, and made to order, using high-quality ingredients and a whole lot of love.

As a mom of two young kids—my most enthusiastic taste-testers—I know how meaningful it is to bring a little extra sweetness to both everyday moments and special celebrations.

Whether you’re marking a special occasion or just craving a really good cookie, I’m so glad you’re here. Thank you for supporting my small business!

1. What cookie flavors do we offer?

I offer a wide variety of delicious flavors and am always dreaming up new creations to test in the kitchen. In addition to my core menu, I feature seasonal flavors throughout the year, so there’s always something new to try!

Some customer favorites include brown butter chocolate chip, triple chocolate, peanut butter lovers, salted caramel snickerdoodle, apple pie, and s’mores.

Flavor availability may vary, so feel free to reach out for the most up-to-date menu. Have a flavor in mind? I’d love to hear your ideas—I’m always open to creating something new and inspired!

2. When should I place my order?

To ensure availability, I recommend placing your order at least two weeks in advance. As a small, home-based business balancing a full-time schedule and family life, my baking calendar can fill up quickly.

If you have a specific date, quantity, or flavors in mind, feel free to reach out—I’m happy to check availability and work through the details with you. While I may be able to accommodate shorter notice orders, rush fees may apply and flavor options could be limited. Please note that orders are not confirmed until all details are finalized.

3. How are the cookies packaged?

All cookie orders are packaged in a box at no additional charge. Each cookie is individually wrapped in a cellophane bag and labeled for freshness and convenience.

Custom packaging and personalized labels may also be available upon request for an additional fee, depending on the level of customization and advance notice provided.

4. What is the pricing?

Cookies start at $50 per dozen.  Pricing may vary depending on flavor and packaging needs.

5. Do you ship your baked goods?

At this time, I’m unable to offer shipping due to Virginia Cottage Food Law regulations. I am based in Arlington, Virginia, and currently accept orders within the greater Washington, D.C. metro area for local pickup.
