One game-day superstition

A full-blown cookie obsession

I’m Heather, founder of Top Shelf Cookies. It started with black & gold cookies I brought to The Fours before every home game—and a recipe I couldn’t stop tweaking. When it was time to get the duck boats ready, I called that recipe finished. The experimenting? Not even close. More than 200 original recipes later, we’re still creating. Boston baked, from the very beginning.

Why Top Shelf Cookies?

What makes your recipes different?

Every cookie starts with a flavor idea. From there, we test and tweak the recipe until the flavor, texture, sweetness, and bake all work together.

Can I send these as a gift?

Absolutely. Choose from ready-to-send gift boxes, build your own assortment, or pick something especially Boston like the 617 Box. We make gifting easy without making it feel generic.

Do you offer recurring deliveries?

Yes. You can join our Cookie of the Month Club or Snackin’ Sampler Club, or subscribe to select individual flavors you already know you love. It’s an easy way to keep the cookies coming for yourself or send them as a gift.

How does shipping work?

We ship nationwide, and orders of $60+ ship free. We ship Tuesday - Saturday.

What if something goes wrong with my order?

Real people are behind every order. If something arrives wrong, damaged, or otherwise not right, we fix what’s broken.

Do you offer local delivery or pickup?

Yes. If you’re local, you can choose from our available pickup and delivery options at checkout. We also ship Top Shelf Cookies nationwide.
