Have you ever wondered how cookies are made? It seems logical right? When we bake cookies at home, we buy what we need from the supermarket, knead the dough and bake the cookies\u2026pretty simple. Well, at Dough & Co., the process is a bit different and it might surprise you. Here\u2019s how.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Best Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A cookie is nothing without its ingredients. Ingredients make the taste, so we make sure that ours come from the best possible suppliers. We use real butter, Fair Trade chocolate, organic fruits and flour and the best quality almond flour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once we receive our ingredients from the supplier, they are additionally tested and sifted through to ensure top quality and hygiene. Lab professionals and factory heroes with years of experience are appointed to these jobs and perform them like experts every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mixing, Kneading and Spreading<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n

At home, you are doing it all, mixing the ingredients, kneading the dough and spreading the cookies out on a baking tray. At Dough & Co., the process is highly automated to ensure efficiency, but we have expert factory bakers monitoring and adding to the process, to ensure that true craftsmanship is added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The mixing of the wet ingredients happens in large batches. Ingredients are added one by one until the right consistency is formed. Each batch is individually tested by our expert bakers to ensure the right taste and top quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The dry ingredients are then slowly added until the perfect cookie dough forms. Of course, this dough is tested too. Next, the dough is spread out on large trays and formed individually by a machine, then double checked. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

P.S. If you want to achieve the perfect cookie shape for any occasion, use quality cookie cutters.<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baking and Packaging<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The cookies are then baked in giant ovens of the best quality. We bake our cookies at high temperature to ensure a crispy outside layer and then reduce to a lower heat to keep the inside soft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once the cookies are done backing, they are removed from the oven and places in a cooling unit to cool down. Once they are cooled down, our employees package the cookie boxes according to order. This process can take quite some time, as our boxes are completely customizable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All orders are double checked (including allergy indications!) before they are sent out and ready for delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
