About Hargis Home Bakery
Hi, I’m Tess! The owner and baker of Hargis Home Bakery 🤗💝 I have always loved making sweets for my family and friends. With the gentle push from my fiancé, Alex, and my family, I finally opened my home bakery about a year ago. Find more pictures and reviews at Hargis Home Bakery on Facebook! Personalization is key to every order I take! You give me any info you can/ invitation/ inspiration photos and I will do my best to make every order unique to you. Whether it’s in the cookie designs, the packaging, or the gift tags, I’ll find a way to customize your order and make it feel like it’s perfect for you and your event. We are a Michigan based Home bakery that specializes in custom sugar cookies and gourmet drop cookies. All products are made in a home kitchen that has not been inspected by the Michigan Department of Agriculture & Rural Development.

Frequently Asked Questions
I recommend booking 3–4 weeks in advance. Since I am a small-batch home bakery, my calendar fills up quickly. For large events (weddings/graduations), 2 months' notice is ideal.
Pricing is based on the complexity of the design, the number of colors used, and any specialty add-ons (like gold leaf or hand-painting). Basic: Minimal detail, 2-3 colors. Detailed: Character work, intricate patterns, and multiple colors/textures. Please contact me for a custom quote!
Unfortunately, no. Under the Michigan Cottage Food Law, prohibited from shipping products. All orders must be picked up in person.
Your cookies will come heat-sealed for freshness. Do Not Refrigerate: The humidity in a fridge can cause the royal icing to "melt" or colors to bleed. Room Temp: Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. They stay fresh for up to 2 weeks in their heat-sealed bags. Freezing: Sugar cookies freeze beautifully! Place the heat-sealed cookies in an airtight Tupperware container. To thaw, leave the container on the counter unopened for several hours to prevent condensation from forming on the icing.
While I could offer recipes made without gluten or animal products, please note that I do not offer these as I have a shared home kitchen. I cannot guarantee 100% protection against cross-contamination for those with severe allergies, so I do not offer gluten free or vegan options at this time.
I love using your decor for inspiration! While I can’t guarantee an exact color match (food coloring behaves differently than ink), I will get as close as artistically possible to your theme.
I understand life happens! Please text me as soon as possible if you are running late. Because I run this business out of my home, pickup windows are scheduled to ensure I am available to hand you your order.
If you cancel more than 14 days out, your deposit can be refunded or applied as credit to a future order. Cancellations made within 14 days of pickup forfeit the deposit entirely.
