About Us

---

     We got our start in November 2022, when our founder, Alison, decided she had spent more than her lifetime’s budget for decorated sugar cookies and really needed to learn how to make them and save some money. Ha, well that wasn’t the easiest thing to do! First off, getting set up to make cool looking cookies is more expensive than buying a few dozen cookies! Meringue powder, vanilla, piping bags and some of the basic tools already cost more than the first 2 dozen cookies you will ever buy! Then there are the skills! Well, let’s just say, there are many skills required, and none of them are intuitive!

    After the first batch, Alison almost gave up. She almost quit after that first plate-full of orange and blue cookies. They were soooo ugly.  But when putting her supplies away, Alison ran across her favorite Snoopy cookie cutter she had had since growing up on South Hill Terrace in Ithaca, New York as a child. It was more than just nostalgia. She had a friend with a similarly worm Snoopy connection who had lost her father earlier that year. Suddenly, there was a new goal. Get a snoopy cookie to LOOK LIKE SNOOPY for Emily. It took approximately 5 batches to get some of the most basic skills down, but by Christmas they were coming out OK; and Snoopy was achieved!

   Over the next few weeks, everyone started asking for cookies and intended to buy them! By February 14th, 60 orders had been produced with no marketing and just a micro web presence of a different web site. It was primarily word of mouth, and it was such a thrill when we gor repeat orders from strangers!

  We do special seasonal cookies, which are listed in our products, as well as personalized cookies by the dozen. Our cookies are known for looking cool, having a soft bite and tasting awesome. Enjoy! receiving the cookies as personal gifts so that our skills would have proper motivation to improve skillsThe new website is the beginning of a new era with the launch of the official brand: Everything Nice Baking by Aligirl.

Sweet thoughts, 

Aligirl and the Team at Everything Nice Baking

Our cookies are known for being so yummy, looking super fun, and having a wonderful fresh soft bite! Here is what you can expect when you order cookies from Everything Nice Baking by Aligirl. 

1.  The cookies you buy will be bake fresh within a few days of your pick-up or delivery. The decorating happens in stages, between which the cookies have to dry. So, typically, you will get your cookies 3 or 4 days after they were baked. They are stored “covered” until you receive them. 

2.  The team is certified as Texas Food Handlers, as per the laws of Texas for Cottage Bakers. These rules ensure that there is little likelihood that food borne illness would pass through these products & the cookies will be packaged and labelled appropriately. 

3.  Our cookies (right now) Contain Wheat Flour, Almond Extract, Eggs, Vanilla, Baking Powder, Meringue Powder, Sugar and Food Coloring. We are working on Gluten Free and Almond Free recipes, but they are NOT PRODUCED IN A NUT FREE KITCHEN. Whenthe gluten free cookies taste great, they will be added to the site.

4.  The law states that cottage bakers are not allowed to sell and then ship cookies out of state.  You can pick up the cookies in Southlake or pay a $10 feel for them to be delivered.

5.  Each Cookie will be packaged in a sealed clear acetate bag with a label, unless it is a sealed set of bite sized cookies or a sealed mini-set.
