About Us!
Mr. Cory is a pint-sized entrepreneur who serves as Chief Executive Officer of Mr. Cory’s Cookies. He along with the Cookie Mom, co-founded, own and operate Mr. Cory’s Cookies, a purveyor of a huge variety of cookies. All of their delectable treats are made with all-natural, organic, high-quality ingredients (not wacky ingredients you can’t pronounce)
Mr. Cory, at age 6, with the support of this mother wanted to solve a simple challenge…commuting in bad weather. So, Mr. Cory decided he would sell Chocolate Chip Cookies to raise money to buy his mother a car because he was tired of riding public transportation. Fast forward, the cookies are a proven hit. Today, these delicious cookies are available nationwide online and in select bakeries and Fortune 500 companies.
That said, Mr. Cory and Cookie Mom are self-taught first-generation entrepreneurs who have honed their management skills over almost a decade through trial and error. They have learned to split responsibilities and collaborate on new recipes, brand management and operations.
Our Campaign
As Mr. Cory’s Cookies is growing fast and our customers want the joy of smelling our cookies bake, we are reaching out to the public to help us fund our new cookie home! A place where our fans, cookie monsters, single moms and kids can find love baked in a cookie.
We have been selling cookies for almost a decade. Mr. Cory and I have been through the ups and downs in building a business and like most entrepreneurs, we still have very challenging times. However, I am so proud of my son for dreaming six impossible things every day. Mr. Cory’s Cookies is something I never thought would exist. I was just a mother trying to survive and when our cookie hobby became a cookie business because Mr. Cory and so many other people took us seriously, I knew I had to nature nurture this moment.
We want our supporters to understand, this campaign is not only about Mr. Cory or Mr. Cory’s Cookies. It is about single moms and at-risk kids. Our Cookie Store will create jobs, provide a safe space for kids to be kids, and be a sweet space to enjoy life with a cookie.
What you will help us achieve?
Mr. Cory has been an inspiration to children all over the world. He and I continue to share the importance of nature nurturing the entrepreneurial spirits of young people. This Store will allow that story to continue to connect, inspire, and serve as an example of what happens when you dream six impossible things.
We are committed to our community and want to contribute to is economy at greater levels. Englewood, New Jersey, is a highly diverse city with an unemployment rate of 4.2% compared to the state (3.3%) and nation (3.7%) unemployment rates as of July, 2019. Our cookie store will allow us to employ several more community members.
More importantly, Our Cookie Store will allow us to continue organically growing the business, inspiring our fans while creating a destination/attraction in Englewood.

Your commitment to Mr. Cory Cookies has made us feel loved all over the World! Shout out to all our Cookie Monsters who believe in our story and what we are doing. We want to give you a place to come see us do our thing. However, we can't make this next leap without your help.
As I often say to my son, it’s not the man who makes the journey but rather the journey that makes the man. Our journey has not been easy and I would not change it! Why stop? We can’t. Mr. Cory and I are committed to achieving this impossible dream. Our hope is you are as well.
I never thought as a mother, a woman, I would be here. I am a single mom who was once on welfare, living in shelter with my son and going through drama. I did not let my beginning dictate the future for my son or myself.
Dream the impossible and achieve the possible.
Spread the word please and help this new chapter in our life become popping!
