![New Unicorn Cookies!!]()

This week we are unicorn cookies obsessed!
With the wide selection of cookies we offer, we try to make themes each week. This week, we have what I think is our most colorful week yet. It is also sure to be one of our most popular. Yes, that’s right, it’s UNICORN COOKIES WEEK!
From a bottle of unicorn magic to a pandacorn, we’ve got at least 10, yes, TEN new unicorn cookies to offer you this week!
And let’s not forget Carlie’s personal favorite, The UNICORN POOP EMOJI
What’s new?
Because we don’t have enough cookie cutters (insert an eye roll from my dad) we headed to the internet to see what new and exciting shapes we were waiting. And boy, did the wonderful people over at SweetDesignShoppe not disappoint! UNICORNS everywhere! Oh my gosh, we had a blast picking out just about every unicorn shape they offered.
After what seemed like an eternity (actually, sweetdesignshoppe is fast with shipping, we’re just impatient women when it comes to our cutters), our box o corns came in. AMAZING!
Due to the Saturday delivery, it pained us to wait until Tuesday to bake them, but we sat on our hands like good girls. Once Tuesday arrived, however, we got busy and now are BEYOND pleased at how they turned out.
We hope you will be as well.
Where can you see the Unicorn Cookies?
We’ve posted some of our favorites from Unicorn Cookies week up on the site in the Cookies section so if you missed them in our store, you can check them out here.
We love when we find new places to broaden our cookie cutter collection. Each time you bite into one of our hand made, scratch based cookies, please know you are keeping our artistic dreams alive.
As always, we encourage new ideas on our cookies. And if you know me, I absolutely LOVE to buy new cutters and stencils. So, if you ever have an idea or know of a great place to buy quality cookie cutters, let us know.
Until then, come on in and check out our daily creations.
See you at the counter.
In cookie love,
Melissa

National Donut Day is JUNE 2nd!
Each year, more and more days are added to our calendars in celebration of an obscure color or underrated food and we celebrate them all in joy. JUNE 2nd 2017, however, is one of our favorites here in the bakery! It’s National Donut Day! Finally, an entire day devoted to donuts! It’s about time these sweet babies start getting the respect they deserve!
What is this, National Donut Day?
During WWI, women referred to as “Doughnut Girls” served on the front lines providing our men with coffee and donuts. Thus, the Salvation Army Doughnut Lassie was born.
In 1917 over 250 volunteers headed to France to serve our country. In addition to providing hot coffee and baked goods, these women provided clothes, supplies, and moral support. There are several stories on the two women who adapted to the conditions in wartime yet overcame to give our men the best they could.
In 1938, in honor of those who served in both WWI and WWII, the Salvation Army created National Donut Day.
And, now that they are, we’re celebrating in a BIG way.
What are we doing for National Donut Day?
Friday, June 2nd is NATIONAL DONUT DAY and we are all hard at work prepping to make it the most special day yet.
We will be offering a wide array of fresh made donuts in a variety of flavors and toppings including our SPRING signature donut flavor of STRAWBERRY and, for this one day only, we will roll out our Cinotti’s original, PUMPKIN donuts.
**Due to the overwhelming demand of PUMPKIN donuts, we have a two (2) dozen maximum on Pumpkin donuts only. We STRONGLY suggest pre-ordering these donuts to insure we have them for you.**
As always, we thank our men and women of the armed forces who serve.
Your sacrifice and service to our country can never be repaid. From the bottom of our hearts…. THANK YOU!

Strawberry Donuts!
Our signature SPRING flavor donut is hot off the fryer!
After months of testing out formulas we didn’t think fit the Cinotti’s level of perfection, we finally found a combination of flavors we like enough to bring to you. Using the finest cut strawberries and our secret flavors, we’ve masterfully created strawberry donuts you’re sure to LOVE!
What’s so great about these donuts?
Did you know, strawberries are full of antioxidants and vitamins? Did you also know they are one of the best fruits for lowering cholesterol and blood pressure?
So, why not put these heart shaped power snacks in your favorite breakfast item?
At least that’s what Mike thought as he pondered his next big idea. He loves strawberries and loves donuts. And, he knows his customers do as well. So, he and his team got busy working on formulas to bring the next big creation to life.
What they came up with is truly wonderful.
A flavor-packed donut full of enough vitamin C to allow you to forego the orange juice but with a thin layer of glaze to allow a hint of sweetness. These donuts are light and airy, yet satisfyingly filling. A success as far as our taste testers have affirmed.
How long will these donuts be in our store?
Our Strawberry Donuts are only here for our SPRING COLLECTION.
We start making these little bites of goodness April 1st and carry them through the end of June. If you’d like to get your own Strawberry Donuts, be sure to give us a call. We always strive to keep our showcase full, however, preordering is always recommended.
Our sales team is ready to take your order, give us a call today!
As always, we appreciate each and every one of you and love your continued support of our family business.

We love having children swing by on a scheduled tour of our bakery. Their wide eyes full of wonder as they pass our six foot tall mixers and large revolving ovens warms our heart. When considering our bakery as an option to your summer school activities, please keep these things in mind:
Cinotti’s Bakery Field Trip Procedures:
Introduction & definitions :
Thank you for considering Cinotti’s as part of your learning experience. We feel it is our family’s mission to teach where we can, what we can, and the best we can with what we were given. Through community outreach and opening our doors to young ones, we offer a quick glimpse of the importance of following directions, working together, and overall safety.
The purposes of these procedures are to help ensure the safety of all customers and staff and to help reduce the district’s liabilities by effectively eliminating and/or reducing loss exposures and risks.
Scheduling Field Trip at Cinotti’s Bakery: Cinotti’s opens its doors for field trips most* Wednesday mornings at 10 am. This ensures guests will observed all areas of the bakery in full production.
What activities are included in the field trip? After hair restraints are approved and hands are washed, students will go over a set of rules involving interaction with food products. Students will then be led through the facilities observing the functions of the equipment. i.e. Bread slicer, mixer, ovens, coolers, freezers, and dough sheeter. Students will then gather in the cake decorating area to observe a cake decoration in progress. Once the tour is over, students will be escorted back to original gathering room where they will receive a cookie. The decorated cake will be boxed up to be taken off premises for consumption.
What are the rules during a field trip?
* Closed toed shoes must be warn at all times.
* Hair must be restrained via hat or hair net. (Cinotti’s will provide hairnet if needed.)
* Proper hygiene must be observed. i.e. Hands off face, no picking noses, etc.
* Hands must remain off of any equipment, food, or other bakery items during entire visit.
* Due to the amount of equipment in our facility, we cannot allow strollers during tours.
How much does it cost? As of now, we offer our tours as a gift to the community.
How many children are permitted? Our tour will comfortably hold up to fifteen (15) children at a time. Groups with more will be placed in a holding room and be taken in shifts. Our overall goal is for everyone to have a fair turn at seeing everything in our bakery.
Food for thought:
We are a fully functioning bakery making various food products all day. We are NOT a nut free facility nor do we have the means to be one while a tour is present. When tours are in our decorating area, all other operations in said area cease. Our decorator will decorate a cake in front of the children and encourage the children to engage, however, if at any time our staff feels a child may jeopardize the integrity of our products, the child may be asked to step away.
