Hello
I am your local cookie lady located in Aberdeen, NJ. I am 100% self taught and my sugar cookies are made from scratch right here in my own kitchen! I have always loved to bake and a few years ago I gave a try at cookie decorating using royal icing and well the rest is history! Check out my story below to get to know a little more about who I am.
My Story
I'm Sofia, the proud owner of Mommy's Little Sugar Cookies by Sofia, LLC. I am a married mother of two and I have always loved to bake. A few years ago, I decided to throw my sister a house warming party, complete with custom sugar cookies. How hard could that be, right? The party was easy but the cookies were not! The house warming cookies were not what I had hoped for, but I was determined to perfect the art of cookie decorating. I watched countless of videos and practiced endlessly. I taught myself the basics of cookie decorating and continued on to new decorating techniques. I couldn’t have gotten to where I am today without the loving encouragement from my friends and family. My husband has supported me every step of the way, including eating all of my messed-up cookies (it's a tough job but somebody has to do it)!
I recently made the tough decision to walk away from my 14-year career as a perinatal sonographer to follow my heart. I have since dedicated all of my time to Mommy's Little Sugar Cookies by Sofia. My cookies are made from scratch in my own kitchen, and I put 100% into each and every one them. My favorite part of running my own business is seeing the pride in my children's faces when they tell people, “Yep, that's my mom, she’s the cookie lady". I love sharing my creations with everyone and I hope my story inspires others to keep at it, whatever that "it" may be.
