Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have a storefront?
No, I do not. Batter For It is a home based custom cookie studio located in Ocean Pines, Maryland. Everything I do is custom made to order. Batter For It is not open to the public.
How far in advance should I place my order?
Simply put, the earlier the better. I book up to 3 months in advance (but do not take orders further out than out than 3 months). Once you submit payment, your order is reserved I am a one woman show, and have a very limited volume of cookies that can be baked, decorated and delivered per week. I advise you to reach out as soon as you know your event date. All that being said, if you contact me with very little notice, even just a few days, if I have availability I will fill your order.
Are you still making cakes?
Thanks for asking! While I focus mainly on cookies, I certainly still make cakes! That being said, I only take a limited number of orders for custom cakes. I am currently booked for custom cakes through May 2025. Occasionally have a cancellation, so please reach out if you need a cake. Even if I'm not available I will be able to recommend an excellent baker in the area. As a side note, my custom cakes are available in two sizes: 8" and 10". I do not offer tiered cakes.
Can you duplicate cookies from another baker?
While I don't make exact replicas of cookies from other bakers, I will use the pictures you send as inspiration to create your cookies with my own artistic style. Every single order will require some creative freedom on my part.
How much are your cookies?
It all depends on the complexity of your design. Custom cookies start at $70 per dozen and increase from there depending upon complexity of design, number of colors, etc. Logo cookies start at $60 per dozen and may increase depend on number of colors and size / shape of logo. Please reach out for a custom quote making sure to be as specific as possible with your theme, colors, designs, etc. Inspiration pics are always helpful.

Do you ship your cookies?
Unfortunately, no.
Ok, I've ordered. Now how do I get my order?
Thank you so much for your order! I know you're busy so I offer three flexible options for getting your cookies.
​
Option 1. Delivery: Let me deliver to you. It's free if you're in zip code 21811. Delivery fees apply outside of zip 21811. Delivery days and times are based upon my availability. An adult must be at delivery location to accept cookies. Cookies will not be left on doorstep.
​
Option 2. Pick up: You pick up your order in Ocean Pines at a SET time (no windows of time). You won't even have to get out of your car! Once pick up time is set, I'll be ready and waiting for you with your cookies. Your punctuality is extremely important since maintaining a timely schedule is crucial for my home based business (and my own personal life).
​
Option 3. Pick up: You pick up your order in Ocean Pines during a 15-20 minute window of time (example: between 1:00-1:20). Your order will be waiting for you in my secure, enclosed outdoor cookie hut. If you choose this option, it is extremely important that you arrive during the set window of time as cookies will not be left in hut for longer than 20 minutes. This option is not available during the hot months.
What forms of payment do you accept?
All major credit cards, PayPal and Venmo. Payment must be made at time of order. Checks are not accepted.
I'm interested in ordering cookies but I'd like to see some sketches before I commit.
Thank you for your interest! While I'd love to share my ideas, I reserve brainstorming for confirmed (paid) orders only. Once you book with me, I'll be happy to collaborate on creative concepts tailored to your specific event.
Do you send progress photos?
No, I do not send progress photos. Once your order is placed and we've decided on the designs, you can trust that I will work hard to make your vision come to life in cookie form. I will not be sending any progress photos.
Will the cookies individually wrapped?
Yes! Each cookie is individually heat sealed in its own cello bag. This keeps the cookies fresh and protects the decorative work. Cookies are carefully arranged in a bakery box and tied with a bow.
How long will the cookies stay fresh? Can they be frozen?
Cookies will stay fresh in their heat sealed package for up to 10 days. Decorative cookies freeze beautifully. All orders will receive instructions with details on how to store / freeze cookies.
Do I need in order in dozen increments?
There is a two dozen minimum order. Once the two dozen minimum is met you may order in half dozen increments.
