Company description

Since 2015, Janie’s has been changing lives with baked goods. Baking holds a special place in our founder’s heart as it gave her hope, strength and inspiration after she struggled with addiction and homelessness as a young adult. Janie's is dedicated to helping other young women through mentorship and second chance employment. We currently have 3 locations in Manhattan as well as a robust e-commerce business and a growing wholesale side!

What Is a Pie crust Cookie?

Inspired by Janie’s quest to get the perfectly proportioned bite of pie she invented a cookie where each bite promises the perfect balance. Each bite delivers a flaky crust, a heavenly layer of filling and buttery caramelized streusel. This cookie has won Janie all sorts of awards, made her a Food Network Chopped Sweets Champion and given her a purpose in life!
