From Cape Cod to Boston and as far south as DuPont Circle in Washington DC, Kayak Cookies are delighting customers all along the Northeast. Founder Terri Horn began her cookie business in Washington DC after leaving her career as a pastry chef.
Inspired by her love of Maine, Terri would pack her Oatmeal Raisin Salty Oats for her trips which including paddling the coastal waters and spending time with family and friends around the campfire. These delicious cookies gave her the energy boost she needed and later became the inspiration for her company. In 2005 she moved to her current Cape Code headquarters in a historic warehouse in Hyannis, Massachusetts.
Salty & Sweet Like the Ocean Breeze
The success of Kayak Cookies is the salty-sweet combination of the cookie – there is no salt in the dough, just a generous sprinkling of coarse salt before each cookie is baked. The Salty Oats line has expanded from the Original Oatmeal Raisin to include Chocolate, Chunky Chocolate Pecan, and Peanut Butter. Every cookie has the finest ingredients like organic oats and raisins, European butter, French cocoa and Belgian chocolate. Terri’s newest addition is a butter cookie – Lavender Shortbread.
Amazing Cookies Deserve Equally Amazing Packaging
Kayak Cookies uses Nashville Wraps clear cello bags closed with kraft twist ties and raffia ribbon to showcase their product. They also use kraft pinstripe gourmet window boxes tied in grosgrain ribbon for their elegant cookie gift boxes.
Terri says, “We make everything by hand, so we must put our cookies in something high quality. We have worked a long time with Nashville Wraps and are extremely happy with the customer service and products. The boxes are so beautiful and our customers absolutely love them!”
Gearing Up for the Busy Holiday Season
The holidays are always one of Kayak’s busiest seasons. Customers love to give Kayak Cookies as gifts. Nashville Wraps’ Gourmet Presentation Boxes are a big hit for holiday gift giving because the packaging is festive, especially our Christmas Presentation Boxes. For cookie businesses, these are a great choice because the 2-piece hinged boxes with clear windows and attached ribbon make packaging your product fast and easy.

Great Video! We package our cookies in clear cello bags just like that. I am looking for cookie gift boxes as I wish to expand this part of our business. Can you help me? We use exactly the same size scoop (yellow) for our cookies. I have no idea what size I’d need.
