Saint Paul Classic Cookie, Fresh Baked Goods From Scratch

We've Found a New Home

2009-06-18T07:56:00.000-07:00

That's right folks. We finally have a new home. Although we are sad to leave downtown, devastated to leave the skyway and all our friends(I know you are customers, but you all feel like friends!) and our wonderful neighbors, affordability has been an issue for us for sometime.

In order to keep the doors open, we need a space in which we can grow, one that's affordable, and one we can be open more days and longer hours. We have found that space. Can I get a woohoo? Seriously, I need a WOOHOO! People, you have no idea how much I miss baking. I had no idea how much I would miss baking. I need to bake for YOU!

Our new location is in the University Ave. and Raymond Ave. area, as soon as the outside is painted I'll post the address so y'all can check our new digs. We will have off street parking, easy access from the highways(280/94), and the space is twice as big as our old space. Very exciting things to come! (This is mum, but down the road there will be a Cafe menu.)

I can't wait for daily specials again, gift cards, the whole shebang, we are very, very excited to reopen!

We should be opening sometime in July, with a huge party for a Grand Opening. Send us an email to saintpaulclassiccookie@yahoo.com so you can get on the list for an invite. It's going to be a blast! Free treats, maybe we can get some cool music, it's going to be a partay!

Want to help us plan it or sponsor part of our party? Send me an email at saintpaulclassiccookie@yahoo.com and I will send you more details.

We are also working on having a food cart downtown St. Paul while it's nice outside.

Have any questions, you can call our temporary number at 651-645-0178.

We miss you tremendously and we can't wait to reopen to see you all again!

Collaboration and Cooperation, Check us out on Twin Cities Live!

2009-05-13T14:23:00.000-07:00

An exciting thing happened this morning that I wanted to share with you all, KSTP's show Twin Cities Live came and video taped a segment for their show that airs today at 3pm on channel 5 and again at 8 pm on channel 45. The segment airs about 20 minutes into the show.

Twin Cities Live covered our story today talking about our move in with the Q Kindness Cafe and our collaboration. You also get to see me baking cupcakes with Elizabeth Ries.
For more info you can go to their website,
http://twincitieslive.com/article/stories/s928863.shtml?cat=10698
and there should be video up after the show airs.

It was lots of fun and I wanted you all to get a chance to get an insiders peek of our new kitchen. I can't wait for all the amazing things to come!

It Was A Great First Day!

2009-05-07T15:58:00.000-07:00

A ton of folks came down, which was fantastic. Thank you and we love seeing you come down!

We are still in negotiations with the case. As in, it decided the light was not going to work until after it arrived. Such as life. Ebba will work his magic over the weekend and voila we should have lights next week.

We are also working on figuring out our display arrangements and getting caught up on our mixes. We will be making a cookie and muffin calendar so you can know when we will be baking your favorite cookies and muffins, so look for that next week.

Our new menu should be up on the web by Monday and in the store, and you will start to see our refrigerated case get stocked with new goodies.

And if you are looking for those hot cookie updates, we will be back updating on those starting next week as well. How do you get hot cookie updates? Simple.

Update: We Are Moved in with the Q Kindness Cafe

2009-05-02T06:45:00.000-07:00

Alright, we have finished moving in and are getting things organized. We have a bakery display case on the way, so it won't be there Monday, but within the next week. We will have temporary display for our baked goods until then.

The kitchen is amazing. Simply amazing. And if you are a cook or a baker, you know how important that is. What does this mean for us?

Within the next couple of weeks you can look to see new products added to our menu. Bakery products like scones, mmm, scones. With raspberries and white chocolate. Or plain, although,a scone can never be plain and they are still amazing.

How about sticky buns, with pecans and honey, or almonds and maple syrup? And cinnamon rolls and orange rolls. And pie. Glorious pie. Apple rhubarb. Lemon. Mixed berry.

This update is making me hungry now!

If you have bakery goods that you have been looking for in downtown and haven't found them email us at saintpaulclassiccookie@yahoo.com so we can start creating recipes!

We will also be setting up a delivery system in downtown St. Paul so stay tuned for details on that.

As for our old menu, our baked goods will remain the same, however we will be offering new daily specials, so look for our new daily specials list come Monday.

What else will change? We will now be open on Saturdays too!

I know this is a big change for everyone, and we are overwhelmed with gratitude, for our loyal customers, for our wonderful neighbors in the Alliance Bank Food Court, and for the amazing Q Kindness Cafe for collaborating with us.

This is going to be beautiful and I can't wait for you all to come visit us in the Q Kindness Cafe in the Lowry Building at 350 Saint Peter Street, St. Paul, MN.

We Are Moving!

It's been a busy month since our last blog, and a very busy month at that. March Madness is upon us in downtown St. Paul and it is so wonderful to see the city so alive! If you haven't been downtown St. Paul in a while, come on down, we would love to have you. There are so many interesting and wonderful businesses in downtown St. Paul, you never know what treasure you'll find.

We are now listed on Indiebound, which is a great site that lists independent businesses. They have a ton of bookstores, but you can find all sorts of local, independent businesses of all types. Check it out, it's a ton of fun and who knows what independent business may be lurking in your neighborhood that you didn't even know about.

We have also been having a ton of fun on Twitter. If you haven't had a chance to check Twitter out or follow us, it's not too late. You can find us at http://twitter.com/spclassiccookie. We update about what kind of cookies are hot out of the oven; if we put something special out like Lemon Bars, Seven Layers Bars, or cake; or special recipes we are working on. We also update about new products and specials and have contests for gift certificates. Soon we will have one evening a week where we will be discussing baking tips, tricks, and ideas so stay tuned for that!

If you're reading this note, presumably you have had our cookies, and if you have had our cookies, I know you are a fan, so let us know on Facebook and help us spread the cookie love! If you haven't tried our cookies, what are you waiting for? You can't get downtown St. Paul, Minnesota? Have no fear, we ship throughout the U.S.

We had a lot of fun with our Shamrock cookies for St. Patrick's Day, but don't worry if you didn't have a chance to pick one up, we will have two fun designs for Easter, a bunny and an egg. Look for our display next week and I will post some pictures online for all you folks who can't get to downtown St. Paul.

Happy Spring everyone!
