Delightful Foods bakes and sells The No Cookie Cookie. No dairy, No eggs, and No wheat, but Yes they're chewy, Yes they're moist, and Yes they're delicious
The No Bakery is a new division of Delightful Foods, a family operated business.
Delightful Foods was established in 1978 as one of a few bakeries providing a variety of natural pastries.
The No Bakery specializes in cookies that use No Dairy, No Eggs and No Refined Sugar, No Wheat, No Hydrogenated Oils, and No Trans Fat. Our Vegan Cookies are made with the finest ingredients free of all artificial flavors, colors and preservatives. The No Bakery carefully researches and formulates its cookies to meet your standards of quality and taste.
I started the bakery in 1979 selling non-vegan cookies and pies. As a young man I was a good salesman and I loved to bake, so I decided to create and sell my own products. My biggest challenge in the beginning and now is lack of investment capital. I always talk about how I could write a book on how to grow a business (slowly) just with profits. I have had to grow my business without loans or investments.
We have 200 health food stores that sell our cookies. The No cookie is sold online, and we ship to individuals all over the country. We have a small local distributor who sells our cookie to dozens of stores. What makes the No Cookie cookie special is that it tastes delicious, even though we had to take the dairy, the eggs and the wheat out of the cookie. 95% of our customers are not vegan. They buy it because it taste good, and it just happens to be made with good clean ingredients.
The No Cookie has had the same label for 20 years and we (my family) and I are excited about putting my youngest daughter on the label and promoting a family run bakery. We are going to take this new energy and do PR, open many new accounts, and expand our web business. I am very proud that I am a first generation business man with out a college degree, that has kept this business going, provided for my family, and sent my children to college. Now all of them are taking some sort of interest in the family business, and maybe God wiling they will take it further one day.
