Marnee's Cookie Bistro opens with cookie fanfare and strong community support 

Marnee’s Cookie Bistro opened with lots of cookie fanfare and community support on September 28, 2007. A cookie parade starting at City Hall kicked off a weekend of festivities. The 13 cookies (aka Marnee’s team of advisors and employees) and a Cookie Mascot, all wearing fuchsia and orange boas, carrying innovative cookie art, followed a marching band, and joined in the musical fun with tambourines. As the cookies marched to their new home of Marnee’s Cookies at 23 Elm Street, Bath, the community lined the streets to show their support while many even joined the parade fun.

Marnee Robinson, Cookie Executive Officer, John Richardson, State Commissioner of Economic Development and William Giroux, City Manager, together cut the ribbon to welcome the Marnee’s Cookie Bistro to downtown Bath. Marnee’s Cookies has expanded from the original home kitchen facility to a 4,000 square foot cookie facility in downtown Bath, Maine. This expanded facility is both a cookie factory and cookie bistro.

More cookie fun followed with a packed Open House, and a weekend of activities, all in celebration of the cookie. Hug a cookie day, create get a pink and orange milk moustache, create cookie art and get your picture with the cookie mascot.

Two cookie contests yielded two cookie winners. Marsha Conover was the lucky winner of the Win a Marnee’s Cookie Basket. And Anita Ruff provided the winning Name for our Cookie Mascot contest. Marnee’s Cookies is pleased to announce the official name of our cookie mascot will be Crumbles!

So stop by our new Cookie Bistro in downtown Bath, Maine. Why? Because life is simply too short to eat a bad cookie. Then meet at Marnee's any day (or every day!) for cookies & conversations with your friends. (Or your computer... yes, we have wi-fi!) Enjoy the cozy colorful ambience, the aroma of fresh baked cookies, and the taste of cookie-licious desserts & bistro beverages. Marnee’s Cookie Bistro offers cookies and gifts guaranteed to delight.

Marnee's Cookies awarded CBDG grant

Marnee’s Cookies was awarded a Community Block Development Grant (CBDG). This grant is awarded to businesses who will contribute to economic development and job creation. Marnee's Cookies expansion plans will do both. This $150,000 grant is a dollar for dollar match of funding and an opportunity of a lifetime for Marnee’s Cookies to build out a cookie factory and cookie bistro in downtown Bath, Maine.

Marnee’s Cookies is forever grateful for the strong support of local advisors that helped during the grant process. They include Brad Swanson, certified business counselor, Small Business Development Center, Al Smith, the City of Bath, Office of Community Development, the City Manager’s office, the Bath City Council, the city planning office and Orman Whitcomb, State of Maine, and his team at Office of Economic Community Development.

Cookies go to college!

Marnee’s Cookies deserve a diploma – they are just that good. So now that you have sent your kids off to college, now all you need to do is to treat them to cookies that are reminiscent of Mom’s home-made cookies… delivered to their college, every month. What better way to help them make fast friends – friends that will surely last longer than the cookies, which are guaranteed to disappear the minute you open them. So, who’s going to be the luckiest (and most popular) person on campus?
