artificial, nutrient rich, grab-n-go cookies! Just real superfood ingredients (nuts, chia seeds, dried fruit) to refuel, reward and restore. Soft-baked, moist & chewy...they satisfy cravings and sustain energy! A convenient snack for travelers, athletes, outdoor enthusiasts, busy families, & anyone leading an active, healthy lifestyle. Good anytime, anywhere! We don’t compromise on ingredients or flavor!

OUR VALUES:

BETTER FOR YOU
Our goal is to make a “better for you” cookie that still tastes great. We call it THE PERFECT BALANCE. Because life’s all about balance, right? PREMIUM SUPERFOOD INGREDIENTS
At Kakookies, we use the finest ingredients we can get our hands on. This includes energy-packed, nutrient-dense chia seeds, flaxseed meal, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, whole grain oats, coconut oil, dried fruits, as well as the best tasting premium vanilla extract. NOTHING ARTIFICIAL
No artificial sweeteners, flavors, or preservatives. No flour substitutes, protein powders, liquid sweeteners, or egg/dairy replacements. Just pure, real food ingredients. GRAB & GO
We’re all busy, right? So we’ve made this tasty snack portable for any occasion. Individually sealed, grab and go goodness when you need it most! Throw in your purse, stash them in your desk, toss in your work out bag, pack in your suitcase or backpack for all of your outdoor or travel adventures. Good anytime, anywhere. Lastly, but most importantly, DELICIOUS
Soft, chewy, unique artisanal flavors… I mean, they were created from a Pillsbury Bake-Off finalist and she knows how to bake. Just saying. CONCLUSION: You can have your cookie and eat it too!

----------

Kakookies are available in 5 flavors: Almond Cranberry, Boundary Waters Blueberry, Cashew Blondie, Dark Chocolate Cranberry, and Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip. Also available in an Assortment, Sampler Pack, and Gift Box!

OUR STORY

THE BEGINNING
When Sue Kakuk (aka Mrs. KAKookies!) discovered her daughter and collegiate cycling teammates were stopping at “Fast Food” for donuts and breakfast before their races, she started baking “Breakfast Cookies”.
“I wanted to bake something that was packed with energy, nutrition, and wholesome ingredients; a good pre or post race snack and certainly a better breakfast option than fast food or a bowl of cereal.”

THE CYCLING COMMUNITY
Grateful for the host families her daughter and team had when racing, Sue wanted to pay it forward and volunteered to host teams and training camps, preparing meals, and of course, baking cookies. This proved a wonderful opportunity to develop recipes that met the various dietary restrictions (gluten sensitive, dairy free, vegan) of many of the racers. She eventually refined the Kakookies recipe to be flavorful and popular with anyone, regardless of any dietary preferences or restrictions. "Most healthier cookies or snacks don't taste good so I wanted to make one that did!"

STARTING A SMALL BUSINESS
Eventually Kakookies was born. Comfortable with the challenges of developing recipes (a two time Pillsbury Bake Off finalist), Sue’s goal remained the same as the very first breakfast cookie and that was:
✔️To create a cookie (not another over-proccesed snack bar) that satisfies hunger and sustains energy
✔️Out of the ordinary flavors (not another chocolate chip or oatmeal raisin, but rather artisanal, unique flavors)
✔️Appeal to anyone regardless of age or dietary restrictions
✔️Portable, grab-and-go, individually packaged cookies available when people need it most

TODAY
Kakookies is actively involved in the cycling community, hosting teams, sponsoring athletic/community events and supporting charities. The story has also come full circle as Sue’s daughter is now an active part of the Kakookies team. THE FUTURE? We’re grinding day in and out to try to bring the Kakookie goodness to more people. As a small business, we’d love your help! Here’s how you can help us:
1. Find a way to Pay It Forward by sending Kakookies as a Thank You, Get Well, or Hostess gift.
2. Request Kakookies at your favorite coffee shop or retailer
3. Follow us on social media and share with your friends and family

We are excited to share some big news! Kakookies has been acquired by Valley's Own Bakehouse!

Repost from :

When Sue discovered her student-athlete daughter was eating fast food before competing, she baked up a healthful alternative—a Kakookie! “I wanted to pack the deliciousness and comfort of a with the nutrition of an energy bar.” Her gluten-free, superfood, re-imagined went from mom-hack to healthful snack.⁠
