About Us

Founded by Verlie Payne, Hudson's Cookies has quickly made a name for itself in the world of irresistible treats. In just a year, Verlie opened three locations, bringing her delectable creations to cookie enthusiasts far and wide.

With over two decades of experience, Verlie has dedicated her life to perfecting her cookie recipes. Her journey began when she left behind a high-finance career in New York City to pursue her true passion. She honed her skills at culinary school and even had the privilege of working at Bobby Flay's esteemed Mesa Grill in Manhattan, gaining invaluable expertise along the way.

Armed with her perfected recipes, Verlie transformed her modest 4 x 4 New York apartment kitchen into a cookie haven. However, seeking a warmer environment for her children, she made the bold decision to move to Orange County. There, she embraced the role of a private labeler, supplying her exceptional cookie dough to esteemed establishments ranging from cozy coffee shops and inviting cafes to even larger businesses like Legoland California.

Today, Hudson's Cookies stands as a shining example of Verlie's unwavering commitment to creating the most enchanting crispy-yet-gooey cookies. Our unique creations have garnered immense praise from cookie aficionados who are captivated by the perfect blend of textures and flavors found in each bite.

At Hudson's Cookies, we invite you to indulge in our mystifying treats and experience the passion and dedication that goes into every batch. Whether you visit one of our locations or savor our cookies through our valued partners, we promise to deliver a moment of pure delight with every cookie we bake.
