As a proud DC native, father, and Southeast entrepreneur, Rick founded Rick’s Cookie Co. out of a love for good desserts and a deeper love for the city that raised him. What started as a simple passion for baking turned into a mission: to create gourmet, high-quality treats while pouring back into the neighborhoods that shaped his story.

This Black-owned business is rooted in the values of community, sustainability, and excellence. Every cookie is made fresh with organic, thoughtfully sourced ingredients — because the people of DC deserve nothing less.

Specializing in catering, events, and wholesale, Rick’s Cookie Co. isn’t just here to satisfy a sweet tooth. It’s here to build something bigger. From a future of creating local jobs to launching baking programs for youth, every cookie is a small step toward a brighter, stronger DC. One batch at a time.
