About


My name is Shelby, I am the owner and sole baker for my home business, Life's a Batch! Baking is my favorite hobby and drop cookies are my favorite cookies to bake. I love baking for my husband and friends, they have always told me that I should sell my product. So now here I am, finally making my hobby a reality! 


I operate under MN cottage food producer laws, which is a registration with the state that helps home bakers sell certain non-hazardous baked and canned goods without a food license to customers within the state of MN. You can always look it up using my business name if you would like more information.


I'm always trying to come up with new flavors and perfect my recipes as much as possible. My husband is my certified taste tester to ensure only the best flavors are available! I hope you enjoy them as much as we do! 

 FAQs


How do I get my cookies?

Under the cottage food law of MN, I can only hand deliver cookies and I cannot ship anything through any mailing services. At checkout, you can choose to either pick your cookies up from my home, or I can hand deliver them to you at your home or an agreed upon meeting place. I do not offer cookies for same day pick up as I do have a full time job. Most orders need at least 5 days notice to fulfill, please contact me if you need these sooner or have a large quantity needed to ensure I have availability.

I will drive up to 30 miles away from my home, anything over that, we can work out a mutual meeting place or you can have someone else pick them up. The current charge for delivery is $7.50 for 1-10 miles from our address, $15 for 11-20 miles and $22.50 for 21-30 miles. Just click on the map at the bottom of the page to figure out your distance and select your delivery zone!


When can I pick up my cookies?

I do work full-time outside of my business but I am typically pretty flexible with my schedule. You will add a date you would like your cookies by at checkout, please mark a secondary date in the comments section in case I am booked for the date you select. I highly recommend you reach out to me before you order if you need your cookies by a certain date to make sure I have availability that day. I do need at least 5 days notice to fulfill most orders.

You will receive an email confirmation after you order, at that time I will respond to that email letting you know if I have availability that date. I highly recommend you add a secondary date in the order comments of when you would like your cookies.

*Disclaimer: if you do not pick up or are not available for the delivery at the set time and day we agreed upon, I am not responsible for stale cookies*


How long do your cookies last?

My cookies will come individually packaged and heat sealed to make sure they are as fresh as possible and to help stop the spread of germs if you want to share with others! Your cookies will always be baked and packaged either same day or the day prior to delivery/pick up to make sure they are as fresh as possible. Cookies typically are the best 3-5 days after pick up, after that time, I recommend putting them in the microwave for a few seconds.


Do you accept large orders?

Of course! Please fill out the contact me form at the bottom of the homepage to make sure I have availability before you order! I do need at least 5 days notice to fulfill most orders as each order is made as it is received. Please note that all cookies come in a single batch ~16-20 cookies as noted in the description of each flavor and you cannot mix flavors to make one batch.


Do you do weddings or special events?

Yes, please see the wedding & events section of the website for my details!


Do you offer other flavors or dessert options?

I only offer the cookie flavors that are listed on my storefront. I do not bake any other dessert options but you can always reach out to me to see if I know any one in the surrounding areas that do offer the dessert you are looking for.


What is your refund policy?

Since all orders are made as they are received, I do not offer a refund after the dough for your order has been made. You will receive an email saying your order is being processed which means the dough has been made or is in the process of being made. Most orders will have their dough made anywhere between 1-7 days before pick up to be frozen before baking.

Refunds requested before your order has been processed will receive half of your total back. *Please note that orders for weddings and special events have a separate return policy as listed in the wedding & events tab*
