Who can resist a cookie? Cookies tempt us in a way no other sweets can...Because cookies speak to something deep in our sweet tooth's DNA. It's the smell of fresh-baked cookies that brings back memories of sharing special events with family and friends.....So, with the holidays coming up, are you looking for original gift ideas? If so, consider the Cookie Commander?
Michelle Yergensen (yure-gen-sen), owner of Cookie Commander, says an important part of this business is that it's both retail and wholesale. You can come into Cookie Commander at 892 E. Commerce Drive in St. George and pick up some cookie dough and with the wholesale part of the business, they're also set up to deliver cookies to businesses from Provo to Las Vegas in smaller quantities. She can also package cookies up and mail them to customers.
Cookie Commander is selling Otis Spunkmeyer and Best Maid cookies, which are exceptional cookies created using only the best ingredients, like real butter and sugar or brown sugar.....Both brands are well known and well established in the cookie market.
Cookies are sold as frozen cookie dough, called cookie pucks, come in packs of one dozen, so you can take them home to bake right away or keep them in the freezer to pull out when you want fresh cookies. And they come in resealable bags, so that means if you only want to make a half dozen, it's easy to save the rest for later....
Otis Spunkmeyer cookies have traditionally been sold to high-end hotels... Some businesses, including dentist offices, have started baking them to put people at ease with the smell of fresh-baked cookies.... They use all-natural ingredients and promise that once you taste one, that's all it will take to be a Cookie Commander fan...
Michelle offers 35 different flavors of cookie dough you can purchase from traditional chocolate chip to triple chocolate.... and how about The Monster, a peanut butter base with oatmeal, chocolate chips and M&Ms...
