Pittsford Cookie Co.
ABOUT
How Pittsford Cookie Co. came to be...
Maureen Lowe, Founder, Owner & Baker
A Jersey girl, born and raised, I moved to Pittsford in September of 2020 with my family to be closer to my sister, to provide my daughter with a better education and to leave the stress of a daily NYC commute far behind. I immediately started baking for friends and neighbors and before I knew it, Pittsford Cookie Company was born.
Aside from founding a Wall Street-media company in 2006 (which I still also currently run), I am a self-taught home baker. I have been baking for others for well over 20 years and have been working to perfect my craft ever since. I am constantly striving to push myself out of my comfort zone and to learn something new. People often ask me what sets my cookies apart from others and I always say, “Well, this may sound weird, but I have a connection with the dough.” And while that might sound strange, it’s true. I can tell from the smell of the butter and sugar as they come together in the mixer with other ingredients and flavors whether a cookie is going to be good or not. I also care about the quality of ingredients I use (no skimping out here) and using real flavors. Cookies shouldn’t just look good, they also need to taste good! We strive to present customers with a final product that they love to both receive AND eat!
The Pittsford Cookie Company is currently a registered home bakery with the State of New York. I am fortunate to have been able to completely renovate my kitchen to suit my baking needs and have baked THOUSANDS of cookies in my home oven.
We are proud to bring our gourmet cookies to Pittsford and the Rochester-NY area and we hope you enjoy them!
