About Coqui Cookies & Treats : A home based bakery for life's simple moments.
My name is Laura M. Morales. Since I was very young, I loved being in the kitchen. I remember propping myself up on a chair -so I could reach the countertops- to help prepare family meals. Helping with desserts was always my favorite part! By the time I could reach the countertops, I was coming up with my own recipes and giving them out at school.
After college, I realized I wanted to pursue baking as a career and work towards having my own business. After working at a local bakery for a few years and sharpening my skills with my fellow baker friends, I took the leap in creating Coqui Cookies. Sharing my baked goods, and my culture with the Savannah community fills me with joy every day.
🇵🇷 Why the name “Coqui” Cookies?
As a young girl raised in Puerto Rico, I grew up with the sound of Coqui -pronounced: kow•kee. These little frogs could produce a unique and tremendous sound which would be the Puerto Rican equivalent to Cicadas in the South. It wasn't until I moved to Georgia that I came to miss those little Coqui frogs that would keep me up at night. I realized they helped define my heritage.
Coqui Cookies combines two key elements of who I am.
