Introducing The Dough-Nut!
Posted by emily on October 01, 2008
It’s been over a month since we launched a new store. We launched the first three to test our site and to work with both producers and our customers to see what they liked and what they didn’t. We have many other producers waiting in the wings, but we’ve held off on launching them all until we finish the development of the front end of the marketplace, so it’s easy to search for and discover products.
If you’ve visited the site in the past week you may have noticed we broke that rule to add a new producer to the Foodzie family. Our fourth producer is Dough-Nut and no, they don’t actually make doughnuts, they are just really “nutty” about making the best cookie dough.
I have to admit adding the Dough-Nut was somewhat of a selfish move for us. We had discovered these cookies when we lived back in Greensboro, NC and were smitten with them ever since. We were desperate for a way to get our hands on them and of course share the goodness with all our customers.
Mary Jean Taylor, the founder and baker at The Dough-Nut, just loved making cookies growing up. Her mom was a homemaker and her dad was an FBI agent. She took the agent path and became a fed for the Office of Labor Racketeering in Chicago, IL. She did this for seven years until she had her first son. She always made cookies for the “guys” in her office and they went crazy for them (much like we did!). After leaving to have kids and realizing she was not going back to law enforcement, she decided to follow her passion and start baking cookies. People that tasted her cookies quickly were addicted, so she decided to sell them full time. Each order is made from scratch, one batch at a time. And she uses her grandmothers scoop to make just the right size cookie.
Mary Jean nails everything from appearance to flavor to texture, which is directly related to her obsession with including only the best ingredients in her cookies. So which cookies are our favorites? Rob aka “cookie monster”, goes crazy over all her cookies but gets particularly excited about the oatmeal peanut butter chocolate chip for its heartiness and rich combination of PB and chocolate. Nik loves the classic Chocolate Chip, especially after a quick 10-second zap in the microwave (but if he was stranded on a desert island with no microwave, the Swedish Ginger would be the clear choice!). I on the other-hand am partial to the Swedish Ginger anytime…it’s soft and chewy and goes down easy with a big tall glass of milk. Hungry yet? Ok…go check out her store already!

Cookie Flavors
Swedish GingerThis cookie first began as a cookie I just made for the holidays. It fast became a favorite, even to discerning individuals who claimed “they didn’t care for this type of cookie”. It has the perfect blend of flavors. It has just the right amount of molasses to keep it soft and chewy blended with the right balance of spices. It is finished off with a vanilla drizzle.
Oatmeal Peanut Butter with Chocolate ChipsThe oats give this cookie a nice hearty texture and the organic peanut butter just adds a simple richness. Of course, you can't go wrong with peanut butter and chocolate, so I threw in some chocolate chips to finish them off.
Chocolate ChipWho doesn’t love a chocolate chip cookie? I think everyone will be overjoyed with this chipper. It’s the perfect size, not too thin and not too thick. It is moist and chewy on the inside, yet slightly crispy on the edge. The chewy, crispy dough is finished off with more than enough chocolate to please!
The Newest Flavor!Pretzel Crunch
We took the original Chocolate Chip and took it up a notch by adding yogurt covered pretzels! The sweetness and saltiness is just perfect!
