I didn't get there on their opening day a few days ago but I finally got there last night. I was a little surprised at the price of the cookies but later when I was nibbling on them at home I realized that each cookie is so huge it probably equals a delicious cupcake in a different shape. They are huge, bigger than the palm of my hand, and thick. The first thing I noticed was how wonderful the place smelled even from outside. There was a long line. It probably took me 30 minutes from the time I got in line to the time I walked out with my cookies. I got a four pack for a little under $13. I took a little bite of each one just to taste as soon as I got to my car. They are very good and the icings are incredible! I would definitely buy the sugar cookie again and also the one with the cream cheese frosting, carrot cake cookie I think it was? My pictures didn't turn out that great because the Sun and shadows just weren't right. Right at sunset.
I went to the movies when I left the cookie store and then when I got home I broke off about a third of each cookie to taste again before I went to bed. One thing I noticed was the cookies are very soft. They might have even needed to be cooked longer, especially the chocolate chip cookie which was very thick. If you like cookie dough you'll love this one! I usually prefer my cookies a little crispy on the outside and soft on the inside if at all possible. That's hard with store-bought cookies. I got the carrot cake, chocolate chip, sugar cookie, and a peanut butter with chocolate frosting cookie. All were delicious. My mother was an excellent cookie maker so it's pretty hard to beat her cookies but that sugar cookie comes pretty close and the frosting is spot on. I would go in and just buy the frosting from them if I could. Maybe I will ask next time. They had tons of employees, probably three at the front counter and what seem to be around a dozen in the back trying to keep up with the demand between baking them and frosting them. It was kind of cute to see the table with several girls standing around it frosting the cookies and having fun together. Everyone was cheerful and friendly and the place looked incredibly clean.
I didn't get a picture of it but next to the big cookies were a few little cookies. I asked about the little cookies and was told they were for parties and catering but I didn't catch what the guy said about ordering them. He might have said that you have to order a minimum of them or something. I'll have to ask about that next time.
I realize they've got a winning concept already but if I was to make a suggestion it would be to make up a box of those little cookies that included one of each flavor they carry and sell it for a set price so that people new to the concept could buy a sampler, like buying a sample box of candy so you can try a lot of different kinds. read more
