Cookies and Milk delivers warm and freshly baked cookies to people within the East Sacramento area, satisfying any sweet tooth cravings during the late hours of the night.

Founder Will Countryman started this cookie delivery business in February, and thought that delivering cookies and milk to doorsteps would be a cool concept.

“No one else was going to do it, I thought it would be a really cool idea,” Countryman said. “We got the permits, found a kitchen and now we are Sacramento’s first delivery service for cookies.”

Cookies and Milk offers four types of cookies: chocolate chip, sugar, peanut butter and chocolate crinkle. They currently offer their pumpkin spice as their current special.

In the past, red velvet, white chocolate chip, cranberry white chocolate chip and fruity pebble cookie have been customers’ favorite specials.

Cookies and Milk is open Thursday through Saturday from 8:00 p.m. to 2:30 a.m.

Orders can be taken online or by phone. Once the cookies have been ordered, delivery takes 30 to 45 minutes. The business’ delivery range spans from downtown to Sacramento State.

The cost of a cookie and milk is only $1.50 each.

Apparel marketing and design major Amanda Weberski, 21, lives close to Sac State and said having cookies delivered to homes is an ingenious idea.

“I would totally order from this place,” Weberski said. “Cookies are one of my favorite desserts and are the perfect munchies after a night out. It’s such an amazing idea and it’s affordable.”

Countryman said that their late hours fit his schedule due to having other priorities and plans during the week.

“We figured it would be the best time,” Countryman said. “Dessert spots are never open really late, and I don’t think you can find one that offers delivery.”

Zac Warren said that Cookies and Milk has a great concept and he would definitely order some to his doorstep.

“I love cookies, and having some freshly baked cookies come to my house late at night would be amazing,” Warren said. “It’s great that they are trying something new. [Restaurants have] been delivering pizza for years, why not cookies?”

One of Cookies and Milk’s largest orders was actually delivered to a Sacramento State organization who ordered six dozen cookies and eight cartons of milk, Countryman said

Countryman said he delivered to numerous clientele from big parties to people that had too much to drink and mostly to customers with big cookie cravings.

“You would think our biggest customers would be that kind of crowd, but it’s actually a lot of older women who order cookies during the late hours,” Countryman said.

Cookies and Milk has also received calls from customers who want to deliver cookies to friends and nurses who order cookies for patients in hospitals.

Cookies and Milk will be open on Halloween and customers will be greeted by the delivery boy dressed in costume as either a life-sized cookie or a carton of milk.

Countryman enjoys his job because it is simply fun and loves seeing the joy of his customers when they receive warm baked cookies.

“It really is so much fun—it beats sitting at a computer all day,” Countryman said. “The best part is our customers because they are really happy when they get the cookies, customers being satisfied is what I get the most joy out of.”
