Nicole’s entrepreneurial journey includes the creation of The Cookie Cups, a unique bakery concept that originated from a serendipitous baking experiment. When Nicole wanted to make chocolate chip cookies without the right oven pan, she used a mini cupcake pan, and out came The Cookie Cups—a reinvented version of the cookie. After a few years of selling cookies locally in the Twin Cities Area at farmers markets and festivals, she expanded to two retail bakery locations in Minnesota. The Cookie Cups is known for its innovative cookie cup bouquets and savory cups, such as Mac & Cheese, Meat & Potato, and Taco Cups. Adapting to the challenges of Covid-19, Nicole launched a successful line of at-home baking kits, now available nationwide. The Cookie Cups has been featured in prominent outlets like Real Simple Magazine, The Motley Fool, The New York Times, and The Today Show.
