Cheryl & Co.




Tucked between ball bearing factories and the Westerville Post Office is Cheryl & Company, a cookie outlet that seeks to overpower your New Year's resolution to eat better and to lose weight. Don't worry...your weight gain will taste quite savory as you throw your best intentions right out the window.

As a diabetic, I might be the wrong person to review a cookie shop. Luckily for me, Cheryl was kind enough to whip up some sugar free cookies that are light years better than the crap you can buy at your local grocery store (I'm partial to the chocolate chip cookie...but there are usually at least three different options available).

The main business of Cheryl & Co. is on the internet. This holiday season, however, they experimented with a retail wing of their manufacturing facility in the Westerville industrial park. The holiday experiment was so successful that they decided to keep it open year round.

There are many other retail locations open throughout the area. There are a number of sales on the holiday cookies, which are still fresh but are priced to move. They also make a ton of Buckeye-themed cookies, which most fans are now trying to move to the deepest part of their subconscious after the third straight National Championship defeat at the hand of the SEC (football-basketball-football).

The frosted cookies are fantastic (don't tell my endocrinologist). If buying cookies directly from the source isn't fresh enough, you can also buy dough and bake the cookies at home. Check out the pictures, and I'll add additional ones as I eat them. So much for MY New Year's resolution!
