Ownership. 1-800-Flowers.com agreed in March 2005 to buy Cheryl & Co. for about $40 million, and the brand still operates under that owner.
What's in the box: A typical box holds an assortment of soft cookies, often including buttercream-frosted sugar cookies and seasonal flavors.
Cheryl's Cookies is a well-established gift cookie brand best known for its buttercream-frosted sugar cookies, and it has been owned by 1-800-Flowers.com since 2005. Most of the site is built around one-time gifts: seasonal assortments, cookie towers, themed tins and a Choose Your Own option that lets you pick flavors. If you want a subscription, look for the Cookie Clubs section in the main menu. The site does not explain club details up front, so check how often boxes ship, how big they are and how cancellation works before you sign up. The range follows the calendar closely. Right now that means pumpkin-shaped frosted cookies, Halloween assortments, a pumpkin spice latte flavor box and fall gift boxes, with listed prices running from about $20 to $50 and many items marked down. A gift finder sorts options by recipient, occasion and budget, and there is a corporate gifting section for businesses. The main draw is consistency and presentation. These are soft, sweet, heavily frosted cookies packed to look nice when they arrive, which makes them better for gifts than for cookie lovers looking for artisan bakes. If you like less sugary or more unusual cookies, look elsewhere. Constant sale pricing also makes it hard to tell what the regular price really is.
