Our story begins long before we moved into our commercial kitchen

While planning my first child, Morgan’s, first birthday party, I decided to test the waters of cookie decorating. I quickly found I had a knack for flooding, piping, and creating delicious, soft sugar cookies. From the beginning, my focus was cookies that were not just cute, but enjoyable to eat. With flavor combinations like brown-butter snickerdoodle, I quickly became a sought-after custom cookier. My passion drove me to stay up late into the night creating and experimenting.

Cookie creation can be extremely time-consuming for a mid-sized company. After spending countless hours focusing on orders instead of sleeping, I decided to focus my time and attention on my growing family and son with special needs late in 2019 and into 2020.

With years of experience under my belt and lots of encouragement from my cookie friends, I auditioned for Christmas Cookie Challenge on Food Network in 2020. Judges Ree Drummond (The Pioneer Woman) and Eddie Jackson (former NFL player and winner of multiple Food Network shows) raved about my brown butter snickerdoodle, double dark chocolate, and butterscotch pecan rollout cookies. Because many cookiers focus only on their decorating skills of regular sugar cookies, my focus on creative flavor combinations set me apart. I love to laugh, and that really showed on camera.

Fueled by my passions for teaching, cookies, and entertainment – oh, and did I mention a global pandemic? – I saw a once-in-a-lifetime chance to combine all of my talents. With the uptick in virtual communications and remote working, virtual team-building opportunities have become more important than ever to companies large and small alike. I saw an opportunity to make fun, informative content available to companies who were in need of joy with a touch of sweetness.

Wanting to find a community of like minds, I entered the world of my peers: Cookie Con. Soon after attending my first Cookie Con in 2015, I realized I was not only talented, but could combine my new talent with my love of teaching. I began to teach classes from my home, and was accepted to be a core instructor at Cookie Con in 2022 in Reno, NV where I taught over 900 attendees on recipe development and flavor creation.

A few years into this crazy idea, we have a team of experts, commercial kitchen, and eyes on the future for Tudor House Cookies. Having recently relocated to College Station, TX to build my dream home and cheer on the Aggies, my husband, Gabriel, and I are excited to make plans for our future. With dreams of one day writing my own recipe book, I continue to bring fun and delicious cookies to people around the world.
