The Cookie Department’s Fully-Functional Cookies
03.21.18
The Cookie Department, a Los Angeles-based food company, offers a unique line of all-natural individually packaged fully-functional cookies without artificial preservatives or trans-fats.
The idea of creating fully-functional cookies took shape one afternoon in 2009 when Founder Akiva Resnikoff refueled with a jolt of caffeine and a sweet snack at the original Peet’s Coffee in Berkeley, California. He noticed other patrons were also experiencing an afternoon slump. It was at that moment that he decided to combine his love of coffee and baking to create a functional treat. After creating more than 50 batches of cookies in his mother’s kitchen, the trial and error phase was over when the first fully-functional cookie, the Awaken Baked, was realized.
Infused with coffee and chocolate, the Awaken Baked was the jolt the Bay Area needed. The caffeinated cookies were a hit as fitness centers, cafes, college campuses and specialty markets --from Berkeley to San Francisco-- stocked their shelves. Today, The Cookie Department is a nationally distributed brand offering discerning customers five kosher, fully-functional and decadent cookie options, including:
Tough Cookie™ – Peanut butter toffee cookie with 10 grams of rBST free whey protein
Great Full® – Sweet potato cranberry oatmeal antioxidant cookie (vegan)
Snap Back® – Ginger and cayenne spiced cookie
Chocolate Chip Nookie™ – Rich chocolate chip cookie infused with Maca Root
Awaken Baked® - Double chocolate chip cookie containing 40 mg of Fair Trade coffee
The Cookie Department’s line of Fully Functional Cookies are available at select specialty markets, juice and smoothie bars, gyms, college campuses, cafes, sporting goods stores, movie theaters, hotels, and grocery stores throughout the country.
