Hello, I’m Hilary!
In 2018, I opened a custom, appointment-only cookie studio for sweet-toothed Angelinos. There, I happily created cookie confections for everyone, from local neighbors and small businesses to iconic brands and beloved celebrities.
My desire to share the joy of baking and crafting delicious and beautiful treats grew into what is now The Cookie Studio LA. A place where cookie and craft lovers can gather to experience and celebrate cookie magic. So, while you can still order my hand-crafted custom creations by the dozen, I am pleased to invite you into my sugary world to see all the sweet things I have in store for you.
