FAQ

How far in advance should I place my order?

I recommend placing your order at least two weeks in advance, but the earlier the better! Once you know your event date, go ahead and reach out. Popular weekends and holidays fill up fast, and I'd hate for you to miss out.

How do I place an order?

Simply complete the Order Inquiry Form with your event details. Once we've finalized your order, you'll receive a quote/invoice to reserve your pickup date.

What is the minimum order?

The minimum order is one dozen.

How much do your cookies cost?

Custom cookies start at $60 per dozen. Pricing may vary based on size, design complexity, edible printing, packaging, and quantity.

The best way to receive an accurate quote is by completing the Order Inquiry Form with your event details.

Filler dozens may also be an option depending on your order. Share your budget in the inquiry form, and we can discuss what options may work best for your celebration.

What is a filler dozen?

A filler dozen is a great way to complement a custom cookie order without adding the cost of a fully decorated dozen.

Filler cookies are typically 2½–3 inch shaped cookies with a solid-colored royal icing finish. For an additional charge, they can also feature a marbled icing design to coordinate with your custom set.

Filler dozens are available only as an add-on to a custom cookie order and are a great way to serve more guests while staying within your overall budget.

Do you accept last-minute orders?

Sometimes! Last-minute orders are considered on a case-by-case basis depending on my availability.

If I'm able to fit you in, it's most likely going to be a printed cookie order rather than hand-decorated cookies. Printed cookies allow me to create beautiful custom designs with a much faster turnaround.

If your order qualifies, a Miracle Rush Fee may apply.

Can I send inspiration photos or designs I found online?

Absolutely! Inspiration photos are always welcome and help me understand the style, color palette, and overall look you're hoping to achieve.

Rather than creating an exact replica of another artist's work, I'll use your inspiration to design a custom set that's uniquely yours while capturing the colors, theme, and overall feel you love.

I'll always do my best to closely match your party colors, but slight variations may occur due to the nature of edible food coloring and differences in screen and printed color displays. As the baking industry continues transitioning away from certain artificial food dyes, some colors may not be as vibrant or may appear slightly different than what you've seen in older photos or inspiration images.

Will my cookies look exactly like the inspiration photo?

Not exactly—and that's a good thing! Every decorator has their own artistic style. I'll use your inspiration as a guide while creating cookies that are uniquely yours.

Do you provide mock-up designs?

No. I don't provide mock-up designs before decorating. That time is better spent creating beautiful cookies for your order.

Will I receive progress photos before pickup?

No. I don't send progress photos or reveal completed sets before pickup. I love preserving the surprise for your special event!

When will you post photos of my order?

I love sharing my work, but I'll always wait until after your event before posting photos of your cookies on social media.

If you'd prefer that I not share photos of your order at all, just let me know when placing your order.

Do you offer printed cookies?

Yes! Along with hand-decorated cookies, I also offer direct-to-cookie printed designs that are perfect for logos, photos, branding, and detailed artwork.

Can I combine printed and hand-decorated cookies in the same order?

Absolutely! Many customers choose a combination of printed and hand-decorated cookies to create a custom set that fits both their vision and their budget.

Combining the two also opens up design possibilities that would be extremely time-consuming or impractical to create entirely by hand. Printed cookies can create detailed backgrounds, patterns, textures, and artwork that pair beautifully with hand-piped cookies for a cohesive, one-of-a-kind set.

Do you offer corporate and logo cookies?

Absolutely! Corporate orders are one of my favorite ways to help businesses celebrate. Whether you're thanking clients, recognizing employees, attending a trade show, hosting a grand opening, or promoting your brand, custom logo cookies leave a lasting impression.

Printed logo cookies are perfect for client gifts, employee appreciation, networking events, conferences, and marketing campaigns.

Corporate orders include white glove service, with delivery included so your cookies arrive professionally and on time.

Do you offer delivery?

Orders are generally picked up by appointment in West Fort Worth (76108).

Delivery may be available, based on my availability, for an additional fee. Delivery requests must be made during your initial inquiry so they can be factored into my production and delivery schedule.

Do you ship cookies?

In most cases, no.

Under Texas Cottage Food Law, one side of the transaction must take place in person. However, even when shipping is legally permitted, I generally choose not to ship my cookies.

Once a package leaves my hands, I no longer have control over how it's handled in transit. My goal is for every customer to receive cookies that look just as beautiful as when they left my kitchen, and shipping simply doesn't always guarantee that experience.

If you have a unique situation, feel free to reach out. I'm always happy to discuss your options.

Do you accommodate food allergies or special dietary needs?

No. I do not offer products that accommodate special dietary needs.

My cookies are prepared in a home kitchen where common allergens are present, and I do not make claims that my products are free from cross-contact with allergens.

I'd rather be honest about what I can safely provide than make promises I can't confidently stand behind.

What forms of payment do you accept?

I currently accept Venmo, Zelle, and PayPal. Payment instructions will be included with your quote/invoice.

Do you offer cookie decorating classes?

Yes! I offer both public and private Cookie Decorating classes.

Public classes are announced throughout the year and are listed on Eventbrite. Just search for Fabuela Q Cookies on Eventbrite to see upcoming classes and reserve your seat.

Private classes are perfect for birthdays, team-building events, holiday parties, showers, and other special occasions. Private classes require a minimum if 8 participants. Pricing is based on: the number of cookie designs (2-6 per person), the complexity of the designs, the length of the class, your location (if travel is required).

To receive a personalized quote, simply complete the Order Inquiry Form and tell me about your event. I will help create a class that's the perfect fit for your group.

What products do you offer?

Fabuela Q Cookies specializes in custom decorated sugar cookies, direct-to-cookie printed cookies, corporate gifting, DIY cookie decorating kits, and cookie decorating classes.

While I occasionally introduce seasonal specials, I do not currently offer cakes, cupcakes, or other baked desserts.
