Hi! I'm Roberta, your local Shrewsbury, MA cookie lady! I started making decorated sugar cookies in the Summer of 2019.
I bake all of my cookies from scratch using premium ingredients including: Organic Unbleached Wheat Flour, Organic Eggs, Organic Grade AA Butter, Organic Grade A Madagascar Vanilla Beans, Organic Freeze-Dried Fruit, Ghirardelli Cocoa and Domino Powdered & Pure Cane Sugar.
I prefer using premium brand and organic ingredients in all of my cookie recipes - because it matters! My gourmet sugar cookies taste as good as they look. They're not just for show!
I offer a variety of gourmet cookies but I specialize in custom designed, artistically decorated royal-iced sugar cookies for holidays, events and occasions.
NEW for 2025
I'm now offering artificial dye-free coloring for custom cookie orders using natural food pigment powders by PRSM Sugar Co. We currently use Americolor food gels and will continue to offer both options until we fully transition to artificial dye-free coloring by the end of 2025. (Please note that coloring options are more limited and muted with natural colors. Let me know when ordering if you prefer natural coloring).
I work in small batches and decorate each of my cookies individually by hand using royal icing with edible details. It's a slow process and a labor of love. I'm a one-woman show and only make cookies part-time. Please contact me early for best availability if you'd like me to create custom cookies for you.
My custom cookies are offered by the dozen (12 cookies) and are priced according to size, design (amount of detail) and number of colors used.
Custom decorated cookies are between 3 1/2“- 4“ in size and start at $72 per dozen.
I also offer mini / small sized 2 - 2 1/2 inch cookies (in limited designs). These small cookies are ordered in quantities of TWO dozen (24 cookies) and start at $36 per dozen.
All cookies are heat-sealed in individual cellophane bags for freshness and are boxed together in a brown bakery box or white window presentation box. Cookies may also be arranged on a platter. Gift bags, ribbon and tags may be added to each cookie for an additional charge.
All custom orders must be paid for at the time the order is placed. I do not offer refunds for cancelled custom orders.
Because each cookie is made and decorated by hand, cookies may vary slightly in style and color.
How far in advance should I place my custom cookie order?
I recommend 12 weeks ahead for ordering custom decorated cookies. I'm able to accept a limited number of custom cookie orders each month and my availability is more limited during Summer months and close to Holidays. Ordering early is the best way to secure your spot on my calendar.
When is payment due?
Payment is due upon ordering. Custom cookie orders are not considered booked until paid in full. I do not offer refunds for cancelled orders.
Do you deliver?
Local pickup is in Shrewsbury, MA. No shipping or delivery is currently available.
What flavor are your decorated sugar cookies?
My signature flavor is Organic Vanilla Bean. I also offer Ghirardelli Chocolate, Gingerbread Spice, Lemon, Strawberry, Raspberry or Blueberry (made with Organic Freeze-dried fruit). One flavor per 2 dozen cookies ordered.
Do you offer gluten-free or sugar-free cookies?
Unfortunately, I do not at this time.
Do you offer artificial dye-free cookies?
YES! We now offer (limited colors of) artificial dye-free coloring options using PRSM Sugar Co. natural food colors (spirulina, beet root, turmeric, etc.)
Do your cookies contain nuts?
My sugar cookies do not contain nuts as ingredients. They may contain trace amounts of nuts and other potential or known allergens due to being made on shared equipment.
How long do your cookies stay fresh?
All cookies are baked fresh to order, decorated by hand and once dried they are heat-sealed in individual cellophane bags to maintain maximum freshness and flavor. When kept in their sealed bags at room temperature cookies will stay fresh for 2-3 weeks.
Can I freeze my decorated cookies?
Yes! Cookies may be frozen in their heat-sealed packaging for up to 2 months. DO NOT refrigerate decorated cookies as condensation may develop which may ruin the design.
ServSafe Food Manager and Allergen Awareness Certified Cottage Food Kitchen. Cookies are made using shared equipment and are not considered allergen-free.
