Cookies by Design coming to Mountain Brook Village

Cookies by Design, a 20-year old bakery and cookie delivery company, is moving into the former Big Sky Bakery space between Ousler and Bromberg’s in Mountain Brook Village. The storefront is expected to open on Nov. 1.

The store was previously located off Highway 31 next to Chuck-E-Cheese in Vestavia and was primarily known for its mail order and delivery cookie baskets, bouquets and trays as well as personalized cookies. The store customizes cookies for teams, photos, business cards, holidays, dance recitals, babies and any other occasion imaginable.

In the new space in Mountain Brook, owner Stacy Lang plans to expand their bakery selection to offer items like brownies and cupcakes.

“I wanted to create more of a hometown cookie shop where you can sit down and have coffee and milk and socialize,” she said. “It’s kind of like Starbuck’s but not.”

Many of Cookies by Design’s longtime customers live in Mountain Brook and off Highway 280, so Lang decided to move the shop where it would get more foot traffic from current and new customers.

Like they have done for years, Cookies by Design will continue to deliver cookies around the greater Birmingham area and ship to areas beyond.

“I want everyone o know that we have great gourmet cookies,” Lang said.

Cookies by Design also has a pre-sliced cookie dough fundraising program.

The store will be open 8 a.m.-6 p.m. Monday-Friday and 9 a.m.-2 p.m. on Saturday.

Cookies by Design will be located at 2812 Cahaba Road and can be reached at 803-1054. For more information, visit cookiesbydesign.com.
