About The Science of Cookies

Welcome to

The Science of Cookies

Hi – my name is Sarah Sloan! I’m a home baker in Greendale, Wisconsin. I began decorating cookies in August 2019 and haven’t stopped since. I launched The Science of Cookies in February 2020, and have been lucky enough to share my love of making cookies with hundreds of people. I have two beautiful children who are my biggest supporters (and are always willing to help eat any leftovers).

I chose the name The Science of Cookies because I perform experiments to guarantee you’re getting the best tasting cookies every time you order. I perfected my recipe after trialing 8 variations of sugar cookie dough, and have expanded into alternative ingredient doughs for those with food sensitivities. Each recipe has been taste tested to ensure you don’t have to sacrifice taste in order to have beautiful, custom cookies.

Design Process

I will make sure your cookies are exactly what you’re looking for – whether you have a very specific idea in your head, or you don’t even know where to begin. Here are some questions I may ask to get started:

  • What are the cookies for?
  • What theme are you looking for?
  • Do you have any example pictures?
  • If you do have example pictures, do you want them recreated as is, or are there things you like/don’t like about the pictures?
  • What colors do you want for your cookies?
  • What is the look and feel you’re going for? Simple, cute, elegant, fun, intricate, etc?

On average, it takes between 10-20 minutes to decorate each cookie. Nearly all cookie designs/styles are included in the price, however for extremely intricate designs (ones that take 25+ minutes per cookie) there may be an additional charge.

Notes on Pricing

  • Pricing tier will be determined and agreed upon prior to the order being started. Clients may request an increase/decrease of pricing tier up to 14 days before your requested date. After that date, The Science of Cookies will attempt to accommodate changes, but some may not be feasible. The Science of Cookies may decide to go above and beyond the allotted colors/designs for artistic reasons, however clients will never be charged for more than the agreed upon pricing tier.
  • Each cookie will be individually wrapped and come with an ingredient label if requested (included in the cost). Cookies are packaged in standard bakery boxes. If alternative packaging is requested (ie: individually boxed), there may be an additional cost.
  • These prices are for standard and/or chocolate sugar cookies. The Science of Cookies offers alternative ingredient cookies for those with food sensitivities. These cookies are NOT allergen free, as they are created with shared tools in a kitchen that processes all major allergens. There is a $12/dozen adder for any gluten and/or dairy sensitive cookies.

Special promotions & gift sets: Watch for promotions and specials, posted regularly on Instagram and Facebook. Some specials are fully customizable, and some may be limited designs. Most holiday cookies will be pre-selected options and there will be limited availability for customs. Flash sales may also be available. Additional charges for alternative-ingredient doughs will apply.
