Hit the Sweet Spot by Sending Custom Cookie Tins as Corporate Gifts

Whether you are a small business or large organization in Sonoma County, corporate gifts are the perfect way to show your appreciation for your clients or employees. While many companies tend to give gifts around the holidays, it also makes sense to celebrate achievements, business milestones, and other events in the workplace. And, let’s be real: everyone likes cookies, any time of the year!

Our custom cookie tins will be a fantastic addition to your corporate gift giving program. COOKIE…take a bite! flavors range from classic Chocolate Chip to the tangy Lemon Moon … there is sure to be a flavor that every client enjoys.

Here are a few ways you can be sure you are giving the perfect corporate gift to clients.

Go Local with Your Corporate Gift

Say hello to local love and goodbye to generic gift giving! Not only does choosing local gifts show you care for your community, it is likely that you are sending a gift that is higher in quality than a generic one. In the case of our personalized cookie tins, the gift you send will be baked-to-order, ensuring fresh, mouth-watering cookies that your clients can’t resist — not those stale, baked-and-packaged months ago cookies they are used to receiving.

The COOKIE…take a bite! bakery is located in northern Santa Rosa and we are happy to help Sonoma County businesses give delicious, handcrafted corporate gifts.

Your Gifts Should Have Personalized Style

Custom printed cookie tins are a trifecta of personalized goodness. You can use your company logo and add a personalized message to clients, while a choice of four customizable tin colors can help you stay on brand. Clients won’t soon forget your gift — they will be able to reuse the custom tins for years to come.

Personalizing our cookie tins is easy. Simply upload your unique design on our website and let us take care of the rest. After you approve the artwork, tins will be ready for pick up in 3 to 4 weeks.

Customize Your Corporate Gift Based on Your Client’s Taste

Another great thing about giving custom cookie tins as corporate gifts is the ability to cater to your client’s taste (literally). If you remember that a certain client LOVES chocolate, you will be sure to include the Triple Chocolate Threat flavor in their tin. Is another client allergic to nuts? We’ll make sure to keep the Peanut Butter Drop out of there! There is nothing worse than receiving a generic box of chocolate and hating 75% of the pieces — we feel the same way about cookie tins! There won’t be a crumb left behind if you keep your client’s taste in mind.

There are three sizes of custom cookie tins to choose from, all of which we can take care of shipping for. Here are just a few of our delicious flavors you will be able to include in your custom cookie tins for clients:

  • Classic Chocolate Chip
  • Snickerdoodle Sugar Sparkler
  • Lemon Moon
  • Ginger Honey Snap
  • and more!

If you are looking for the perfect corporate gift to give, and hate the idea of a generic basket that claims to be “gourmet,” one of our custom cookie tins sounds like the right choice for your business. We’re ready to receive your files and fill your tins with fresh-baked cookies. Head over to our Corporate Gifts page to start your order today!

4 Reasons Why Cookies Make the Best Dessert

platter of various cookie flavors for dessert

You would be hard pressed to find someone who can resist the tempting nostalgic aroma of a freshly baked cookie. Cookies appeal to us all for many reasons. They’re perfect for on the go in a purse or backpack, come in a variety of flavors for any sweet tooth, and have the power to bring about a smile to just about any face.

It’s no wonder then, why you’re more likely to find a delicious spread of cookies at your next company lunch, family gathering, or community function than any other dessert.

1. So. Many. Cookie Options.

The flavor variety and combinations are practically endless. What that really means is there is something out there for everyone to enjoy. Cookies are like a sweet crunchy chewy canvas ready for just about anything you can imagine. Chocolate, nuts, fruits, and grains – just to name a few, create wonderfully contrasting flavors and textures that can satisfy even the most particular sweet tooth. 

If you’re a fan of the classics or wish to experience a bold new flavor combo, no matter what your taste buds happen to be craving, there is certainly a cookie for you.

2. Cookie Portability

Another reason why cookies are the best: you can take them just about anywhere! Easily transport 1 or 100 cookies with ease to any event. Unlike other desserts, cookies do not require additional utensils or tableware. Simply pick up and enjoy.

Whether you’re tossing a couple in with your lunch or feeding an entire congregation, cookies provide a convenient and favorable treat for any occasion. Plus, you can always bring the leftovers home for later!

3. Simple Portion Control

If you’re baking them yourself, you decide what size to make your cookies. If you’re not baking them, well you still get to determine your intake! Like many others, you may be watching what you eat and putting limits on your sweet tooth. Often, we pass up on dessert or a special treat… just because.

With cookies, on the other hand, you can easily keep track of what you’re eating and indulge in a little treat. Enjoy yourself and know this: you’re allowed to have a cookie (or two).

4. Oh, the Power of a Cookie

Cookies can come in a multitude of shapes, sizes, colors, and flavors. Consequently, it’s hard not to smile at the sight of a deliberately arranged platter of tasty sweet goodies. Bring some along to share with new acquaintances and co-workers to make a sweet first impression or maybe pass a cookie to someone who needs a little cheering up. For many, cookies bring back fond memories of childhood and time spent baking with loved ones.

Whatever your reason, sharing a chewy, crunchy, crumbly confection is sure to brighten anyone’s day – regardless of age.
