Meet the Bakers

Jennifer Tackman

Co-owner/ Executive Baker

Hi, I’m Jennifer! Welcome to Cookie Creations. Me and my husband Matt have 5 children and 6 grandkids. We’ve been married for 31 years and have always loved making meals and baking for our large family. I’ve been making decorative sugar cookies as a hobby for holidays & celebrations for years. In 2018, I started taking classes and decorating seasonal cookies for friends and family. Then, out of nowhere, we were overwhelmed with how many of our friends and neighbors wanted to buy our cookies for parties, birthdays, weddings, and the holidays. This gave me the confidence to expanded my skills, and make a broader range of Cookies for all kinds of events. I love getting to create memories with my kids and grandkids through baking, and I love getting to be a small part of the special events In your life.

Hey, I am Alyssa! As my mom mentioned, she has made cookies for years and I often would help her create designs and ice the cookies. When I found out that my husband and I were pregnant, I wanted to find a way to step back from my full-time job to prioritize raising our kids. Everyone loves my mom’s cookies, and as word spread, we would get more and more messages asking for cookies for all kinds of life events such as baby showers, weddings, gender reveals, corporate events, birthdays, and more. So, we took a leap of faith and decided to pursue this full-time. It allows me to have flexible working hours to raise our daughter and for my mom and I to create special memories together while creating something special (and tasty) for you!
