Question 1

How much are your cookies per dozen?

Accepted Answer

Cookie pricing varies based on the level of detail and the number of colors in your set. As a general guide:

• Standard sets (simple designs with a few colors and a little bit more creative freedom) start at $60 per dozen
• Character cookies, florals, highly detailed and/or many-color designs start at $75 per dozen

Note: If you’re looking to match highly specific inspiration photos or recreate exact designs, pricing may be higher, as those require additional time for planning and detailing to get it exactly how you’d like.

Allowing me a bit of creative freedom is always the most cost-effective option, and often results in the cutest cookies!

Once I know your theme, colors, and any must-have elements, I’ll provide your exact quote.

Question 2

What makes Peaches & Dreams cookies different?

Accepted Answer

My cookies are made in small batches with quality ingredients and a lot of care. Every order is custom from start to finish, and most sets take multiple days to create. Here’s what goes into them:

• A soft-baked cookie that is thicker and larger than standard decorated cookies
• High-quality ingredients like Grade A vanilla beans, local honey, real butter, and premium extracts
• Small-batch royal icing made fresh for your order
• Custom color mixing to match your event aesthetic (I provide a color palette that you can review and tweak)
• Custom 3D-printed cookie cutters so your set has shapes and designs unique to you
• Time spent sketching and designing your set before I ever start decorating
• Hand-piping, layering, lettering, and detail work done completely by hand
• Each cookie is individually heat sealed, keeping them fresh 2–3 weeks, and making them easy to serve, gift, or display

Why the pricing reflects this

Decorated cookies are extremely time-intensive. From mixing and baking to prepping icing, coloring, layering, drying stages, and adding details, a single cookie can require multiple steps over 1–3 days depending on the style.

More detailed designs — like character work, florals, intricate piping, metallic accents, and sets with many colors — take significantly more time and precision.

Pricing reflects:

• The ingredients used
• The labor and time required
• The artistry and custom design work unique to your order

My goal is to create cookies that not only taste delicious, but feel special, thoughtful, and custom to your celebration.

Most of my customers come back saying the cookies were such a hit they wish they had ordered extra!

Question 3

Can you do dye free?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! Just let me know when you order. If you’re requesting dye-free colors, there’s a small additional charge to cover the higher cost of dye-free ingredients. Hopefully as more laws are passed and manufacturers make dye-free options more affordable, I’ll be able to remove the extra charge in the future!

Question 4

Do you do gluten or dairy free?

Accepted Answer

I’m happy to accommodate these requests whenever possible! However, if the allergy is severe, I may not be the right fit — I do not have a certified allergen-free kitchen. I take every precaution to avoid cross-contamination, but since allergens are present in my kitchen, I can’t guarantee complete allergen-free products. Please note there is a small additional charge for gluten-free orders to help cover the cost of specialty ingredients.

Question 5

How much notice do you need?

Accepted Answer

I request a minimum of 7 days notice for items listed. A longer notice may be required for custom items not listed.

I try my absolute best to fit in last minute orders, so if I can do it, I will! However, a charge does apply to rush orders.

Question 6

Do you deliver?

Accepted Answer

Yes! I offer delivery starting at a $5 base fee, plus $1.50 per mile (one way) from Saint Johns, FL, up to a maximum of 50 miles. Delivery is available for all custom orders — just let me know when you place your order, and I’ll calculate the delivery cost for you!

Question 7

Do you ship?

Accepted Answer

I can absolutely ship decorated cookies! The cost is dependent on the order size, but starts at about $9.95 and just covers the cost of shipping and packaging.

Question 8

Do you work with fondant?

Accepted Answer

While I will use fondant for some decoration, I do not make cakes covered in fondant. I have found that the flavor of fondant in general just isn’t very good. And I want my cakes to be delicious!

Question 9

Can I pick a cake shape other than a letter or number?

Accepted Answer

I’m certainly open to working with what you need, as long as it can be packaged with no problems! Just let me know what you’re looking for!

Question 10

Do you sell extra cake?

Accepted Answer

Waste not! When I make cakes, I package up the leftover cuts and add additional buttercream in cute little single serving cups. I will post on my business page when these are available, so make sure you like it and keep an eye out!
