Hello! My name is Sara, the baker behind Cookie Box.

​

About 10 years ago, I had to remove gluten from my diet and was constantly disappointed by the gluten-free cookies that were available. Cookie Box was created with the intent of bringing homemade, better-tasting, gluten-free cookies to those who can’t eat gluten — or anyone who just wants a good cookie! While my speciality is cookies, I also make cinnamon rolls and scones.

​

In 2019, I decided to pursue my love of baking and obtained my pastry certificate through Edmonds Community College. Armed with my existing pastry knowledge, and tired of not being able to eat what I made, I decided to branch out into the world of gluten-free baking. I spent the next few years perfecting my cookie recipes through lots of trial and error and feedback from my gluten-eating peers.

​

Sometime in 2024, I decided to start my application for a Cottage Bakery permit. I eventually submitted and became an officially licensed Cottage Bakery in February of 2025!
