The person behind The Cookie Drop

The Cookie Drop started with a love for baking that began at home. Growing up, I watched my dad bake whenever he had the chance. He even entered baking competitions (and won a few!), but he could never leave a recipe alone. Somehow, he always found a way to add his own little twist β€” and honestly, it usually made it even better. Watching him made me fall in love with baking, too.

The idea for The Cookie Drop actually came to me back in middle school. At the time, I thought, β€œThat sounds like too much work,” so I pushed the idea aside. But it kept popping back into my head, year after year. By my junior year of high school, with a lot of encouragement from my family, I finally decided to stop just thinking about it and actually go for it.

I started small, just selling fresh cookies at school every Tuesday. Before I knew it, people were coming back every week asking what flavors were dropping next. Seeing so many familiar faces each week made me realize I was building something special.

Now, The Cookie Drop is more than just cookies β€” it's something I'm incredibly proud of. Every batch is made with premium ingredients, baked fresh to order, and made with the same passion that first inspired me years ago. This is only the beginning, and I can't wait to see where this journey takes me. πŸͺ
