Though it is part of a larger company, this branch of Cookies by Design has the personal touch of a small business. The bakers use local, fresh and natural ingredients to make all of the cookies from scratch. Since the cookies are baked with eggs from San Diego County, they will taste different than cookies from a distant branch, so you get a unique experience. As a refreshing alternative to gift giving, you can order customized, hand-decorated cookie bouquets for business or personal events such as birthdays or weddings. Cookies by Design can also feature your favorite NFL or NCAA teams or Disney characters.
