Crema's Take

Tucked away in Raleigh, this beloved cookie shop pairs artisanal, lovingly-made cookies with solid coffee and ice cream in a genuinely warm, family-friendly space where the owner's care shines through every interaction. While opinions on the cookies themselves are mixed, the standout experience seems to be the handcrafted quality and personal touch that sets them apart from mass-produced competitors, along with creative offerings like ice cream sandwiches that elevate a simple cookie stop into something special. It's the kind of place where you'll encounter real hospitality and feel like you're supporting someone who actually cares about their craft.

Super nice lady but my dining hall has tastier cookies. These cookies just taste stale and old.

This is the second time I have purchased cookies from the Farmers Market location and been so disappointed. The cookies look delicious and the staff is very friendly. However, both times the cookies did not have a good taste. They taste as if the flavors were all melted together maybe they were stored together in transit? Also this visit 9/18 the spice cookies were stale. I would like to try your storefront because I am sure they would be different there!

This place is amazing!!! It puts all other cookie shops to shame (especially that national cookie chain that has popped up everywhere, but has forgotten they are supposed to have cookies!) We first stopped by their booth at the Raleigh Farmer's Market and instantly were hooked! We now go weekly! The Molasses cookies taste like a yummy Christmas Cookie...and, if you can snag a Peanut Butter Cookie before they sell out...you are in for a treat!!! We have tried every flavor, and each one is delicious!!!!

First, I’m coming in to this establishment today. Really enjoyed their cookies! I tried the butterscotch caramel and it was perfectly chewy and delicious! Highly recommend and can’t wait to try more. Also, the staff is very welcoming.
