Farmington’s New Chocolate Chipped Bakery Offers Delectable Treats for Cookie Lovers

Farmington Welcomes a Sweet New Spot: Chocolate Chipped Bakery!

Hey, Farmington! Something delicious has just popped up in your downtown area, and it’s all about cookies! Welcome to Chocolate Chipped Bakery, a delightful new destination for all you cookie lovers out there. You’ll find this cozy bakery in the former Big Salad location, and trust me, it’s a treat you won’t want to miss!

From Hobby to Bakery: How It All Started

So, let’s rewind a bit. This all started back in 2015 when Mary O’Connor, co-owner of the bakery, was juggling her veterinary studies and feeling the weight of stress. All that pressure led her to start baking, and not just any cookie—she was on a mission to create the ultimate chocolate chip cookie. “I had a long commute, and baking became my side hobby,” she said. After what she describes as “nearly a hundred trials,” she finally nailed her classic cookie recipe. Picture a quarter-pound cookie with a crispy edge and a luscious soft middle. Sounds heavenly, right?

Mary started sharing her creations with friends, but the response was big! Her husband, Derek, began taking cookies to work, and soon people were placing orders. The couple quickly realized they were onto something big when they began selling at local farmers markets. “We went from selling an average of 100 to 300 cookies per week to nearly a thousand at the Farmington market!” Mary explained with excitement.

A Sweet Vision Comes to Life

Fast forward to 2023, when Mary felt something was off with their wholesale efforts. That’s when a spark hit her like a bolt of lightning! “I had this very clear vision come into my head,” she recalled. She envisioned herself at the bakery counter, surrounded by happy customers. She excitedly shared this vision with Derek, and guess what? He was all in! By early 2024, they had found the perfect spot right in the heart of Farmington.

Why You’ll Love Chocolate Chipped Bakery

At Chocolate Chipped Bakery, the cookies are a labor of love, made with the finest ingredients—think real butter, King Arthur flour, and Belgian chocolate. Mary emphasizes, “We don’t use any preservatives or shortening, and everything is made totally by hand.” With daily offerings rotating between five delicious flavors, including the classic chocolate chip and the more daring salted chocolate toffee, there’s always something for everyone. And don’t forget about those seasonal flavors, like mint and sugar!

Some crowd favorites include oatmeal raisin, oatmeal butterscotch, peanut butter chip, and double chocolate chip. But wait, there are more unique flavors like the decadent triple peanut butter cup and a fun cornflake crunch cookie! Mary reminds us, “We try to accommodate everyone. Each person that walks through the door has the opportunity to indulge because we have gluten-free and vegan options available.”

What’s New at the Bakery?

Now, if you think cookies are fantastic, wait until you hear about their supersized brownies that have just been introduced! These are reportedly even bigger than the cookies, so your sweet tooth is in for a serious treat. Pricing for the cookies begins at just $3.75 each, and you can grab them individually or in packs of four, eight, or a dozen.

Partnership and Passion

Baking aside, Mary and Derek’s partnership is another story worth sharing. “We both have a shared dream of growing our brand by offering amazingly delicious products and top-notch service,” Derek shared. With Mary’s creative flair and attention to detail balanced by Derek’s focus on efficiency, this duo is all set to bring something special to the community.

Don’t forget to check out their festive holiday gift boxes, which include a dozen cookies, a spatula, and a cookie cutter wrapped in a beautiful bow. And yes, gift cards are available too! So, whether you’re treating yourself or someone special, Chocolate Chipped Bakery has something for everyone.

Come on Down!

So what are you waiting for, Farmington? It’s time to treat yourself at Chocolate Chipped Bakery, where every cookie is crafted with love and a touch of magic. You won’t be disappointed!
