How did Sweets du Jour start? A couple of years ago I thought it would be fun to organize a cookie competition. I had not baked a single cookie at the time but, if nothing else, I am competitive. I baked ten dozen cookies in a matter of days, experimenting and seeking feedback in preparation for the competition. To everyone’s surprise I pocketed best cookie and got hooked on baking.
Fast forward to 2023, and the need to find a creative distraction. I turned back to the oven and set the goal to sell 6 dozen cookies before year end. Thanks to supportive friends that was quickly accomplished and year one success was well beyond my wildest expectations.
It’s been so special for Sweets du Jour to be the obvious choice for birthday parties, teachers’ gifts, Airbnb welcome treats, sport events, holiday celebrations, bachelorette and wedding parties, corporate team outings, client gifts…or just because…cookies make everything better!
