About Our Cookies by Design Franchise

Cookies by Design offers a low-entry cost and scalable confectionary bakery and gifting franchise featuring custom, hand-decorated cookie bouquets, gourmet cookies, cupcakes, and other sweet treats.

Our Omnichannel business model combines a local bakery retail shop offering personalized gifts and local hand delivery with the online ordering site and a National B2B Gifting program. This gives each location a national selling reach with the charming option of neighborhood delivery.

For nearly 40 years, Cookies by Design has been delighting people across the US with a unique and delicious gifting alternative to flowers. Our ability to create custom cookie bouquet designs with a personalized message and provide local hand delivery sets us apart from competitors.
