The Cookie Lady
About Us
The Cookie Lady bakes low cholesterol, low fat and sugar-free desserts. We believe everyone who wants a treat should be able to have one, so we bake for people with chronic health conditions such as diabetes and heart disease.
Our Business
The Cookie Lady is a virtual bakery. We bake and ship our desserts to your home. Every cake, cookie, cupcake and pie is made to order, so you're always receiving a fresh personalized dessert. We pride ourselves in baking the most delicious and healthful desserts available, including Omega-3 enhanced eggs, margarines and nuts. We sweeten our diabetic-friendly desserts with fructose, a fruit juice reduction, instead of refined sugar. We bake our low cholesterol desserts with egg whites and premium margarine specially made for baking for people with heart disease. As a result, our desserts are lower in cholesterol and fat, and contain no transfats or hydrogenated oils. We use the highest quality ingredients and never use preservatives. Your health is our business. We serve all our cookies to our own families--they're much healthier than the "baby cookies" on the supermarket shelves.
Who We Are
Hi, I'm Mari, the owner of The Cookie Lady. After thirteen years as an educator, I decided to follow my dream and opened my virtual bakery in 2008. I am trained in Wilton Cake Decorating and ServSafe certified.
I recognized the need to create more healthful baked goods for my family after my husband's second open heart surgery. He urged me to bake desserts he could eat, explaining he wanted to be around when our children grew up. I perfected a few recipes and shared them with my friends and family. Now, I'm baking sugar-free and low cholesterol desserts for families all across America.
What's Next?
I'm working on a few more recipes to share with you, including several for diabetic chocoholics. The new line of chocolate goods will premiere in June, just in time for Father's Day.
I will add nutrition information, including calories, sugars, fat, fiber and serving size soon. I am working with our distributors to provide accurate health information for you.
Wedding Cakes! I would love to bake and design your customized sugar-free or low cholesterol wedding cake, if you're in the Sacramento area. Call me at 916-317-5113 to discuss your cake today.
