The Sweet Dream​

​

Picture this: two college students 🎓 in their final semester with no idea how they were going to make it in the corporate world 😅.

 

Through crippling anxiety and tons of stress, they decided to bake some cookies 🍪, make some cash 💵, and calm some nerves.

 

The goal? Make enough money to travel ✈️, relax, and then start the job search again in NJ.

This is exactly where Ali Hajihaidari and Andrew Zerquera found themselves in the second half of 2016.

After promoting on Instagram 📱, selling some seriously delicious treats 🤤, and taking a little adventure—they were flooded with love ❤️ just as they were about to hang up their aprons and put on their suits.

 

People wanted these crazy cookies! 🍪🔥

 

Since then, Ali and Andrew have been opening up cookie shops all over NJ, sharing their fresh-baked flavors with the world 🌎.

 

These cookies have been featured in major publications, were named the Best Cookies in NJ 🏆, and even scored spots on Food Network and Thrillist!

 

But they didn’t stop at cookies…

The Cookie Connect is also known for its epic Cereal Ice Cream Bar 🍨, the signature Cookie Cup 🥤, and the jaw-dropping Giant 5lb Ice Cream Sandwich—some of the most Instagrammable 📸 desserts out there.

Let’s get #baked 😜
