Great American Cookie Co.

Great American Cookie Co. is another name for Great American Cookie Company, a chain specializing in cookies and cookie cakes. Mall-based stores bake on-site and sell cookies individually, by the dozen, and as decorated slabs for celebrations. The brand targets shoppers wanting nostalgic, simple desserts and customizable messages. Positioned in the value-to-mid dessert range, it competes on familiarity and shareability. Outlet-center locations mirror standard mall formats with strong visual cookie displays.

All of the cookies and brownies at Great American Cookies start with carefully tested recipes, highly controlled production and the finest premium ingredients from our batter facility in Atlanta, Georgia. The end result is the best possible fresh-baked products at an affordable price. From our signature Cookie Cakes to our sinfully rich brownies, Great American Cookies takes the time to do it right.
