Frequently Asked Questions
My child is allergic to nuts. Are your cookies really peanut/nut free
?
Our cookie dough does not contain nuts or nut products and is created fresh in our health-inspected, peanut/nut free facilities. In addition, we only use peanut/nut free ingredients.
What are your flavours?
There are seven scrumptious flavours: chocolate chip, gingersnap, oatmeal chocolate chip, double chocolate, sugar cookie, oatmeal raisin and shortbread. We also sell two flavours of dry mix muffin mixes. Both the Bran and the Oatmeal Muffins are great on their own but can have many options added for that special favourite flavour.
How much money can our group make?
There is $5 of profit per pail. An average organization with 20 sellers can easily sell 400 pails for a profit of $2000.
Who created the recipes?
Lorenda Friesen and her cousin spent hundreds of hours in the kitchen perfecting Cookie Crumbles' distinctive recipes for eight varieties of homemade-tasting cookies.
What are the keys to a successful fundraiser?
Please see the "selling tips and tools" section.
Can I thaw and refreeze the dough?
You can keep Cookie Crumbles dough in your freezer for up to a year and you can thaw and refreeze Cookie Crumbles dough any time. You can keep the dough in your fridge for up to three months, which we recommend so your cookies are always ready to bake.
Is shipping included in the price of dough?
Cookie Crumbles provides free delivery within your franchise area when 150 or more pails of dough are sold. Other arrangements can be negotiated with smaller orders.
Is Cookie Crumbles a Canadian company?
Yes, we're Canadian-run, family-owned business based in Meadow Lake, Saskatchewan.
How long does the cookie dough last?
You can keep Cookie Crumbles dough in your freezer for up to a year and in your fridge for up to three months.
How do I bake the cookies?
For optimum results, let the dough sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. Roll the dough into balls (don’t press down) and drop onto a baking sheet. Bake at 350 F for 10 to 12 minutes depending on your oven. If you take them out right before they look done and let them rest for a few minutes at room temperature, the results will be a nice, soft and chewy cookie. If you like your cookies a little crunchy, simply bake them a little longer.
Following are some variety specific instructions:
Gingersnaps – are more attractive if rolled in sugar before baking.
Shortbread – For thin wafer shortbread, you can roll it out and press down. You can also roll them out and cut them, but you will need a bit of flour on your board.
I’m a vegetarian. What kind of shortening do you use?
We always use all vegetable shortening and our dough never contains animal by-products.
Do you sell your dough in case lots?
No. We deliver only what you have sold and never a pail more.
Do you ship your dough?
No, but we personally deliver the dough to your club, group or organization.
