Our Story

Behind the Buttercream

Building on the belief that the world deserved a better cookie, one made with the freshest ingredients and the utmost care, our founder compiled the beloved, old-fashioned recipes from her Midwest roots and set to baking.

Today, 40 years later, we still bake our famous cut-out cookies according to those original recipes before hand-icing them with our renowned buttercream frosting. As anyone will tell you, it’s our buttercream that makes our cookies extra-special. Made from just four ingredients—butter, vanilla, evaporated milk and powdered sugar—this frosting is what keeps Cheryl’s Cookies customers coming back, time after time. As the years have passed, we’ve added all sorts of delicious flavors like cinnamon, caramel, peanut butter and fruit to our buttercream recipe, but all of them have the same classic rich and creamy texture people crave.

Of course, that’s not all we make. Along with our butter-rich cut-outs, we also serve up a wide variety of cookies in dozens of flavors, gourmet brownies, cakes, and a host of seasonal items, all made with the finest natural ingredients available.

Ohio residents and visitors can find our delectable baked goods at our popular retail stores in select Central Ohio locations, but our catalog and website are the easiest ways for customers nationwide to browse our extensive collections and find the perfect gifts to send to friends, family and loved ones, near and far. Gift baskets, boxes and tins are thoughtfully designed for every season and every gifting reason, and come in a range of just-right sizes that allow you to celebrate one special person or more than one hundred. You’ll see and feel the quality in everything we do, from individually wrapping each item to our delightful presentation and 100%-satisfaction guarantee.

Our business and corporate clients are well served by our Wholesale Division and Business Gift Services which enable them to offer the world’s finest baked goods to their customers and clients. Just like our individual customers, they can choose from our wide selection of made-in-house baked goods as well as items from our wholly-owned Mrs. Beasley’s Bakery, the Los Angeles icon best known for their Miss Grace Lemon Cake.

Cheryl’s Cookies is proud to be part of the 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, Inc. family of brands, which is and has always been committed to delivering smiles for every occasion.
