i have fond memories of cookie time as they were one of my favourite treats back in high school. this is a really cute store, bright and colourful, bursting with energy and brought back some good memories. it was fun to look through the different merchandise and products they had on offer, including a post card that is accompanied by cookies! we were lucky to have walked past the store during happy hour, and were treated to two warm cookies for $3. it was a tough choice but i ended up going for the lemon and white chocolate. it was alright but reminded me of a muffin instead of a cookie. i also tried the salted caramel cookie which was delicious but also on the sweet side for me (but i do generally prefer food less sweet compared to most people). i guess living in nz, this isn't really the place for me to be buying cookie time, as it seemed more expensive, however would definitely recommend visiting the store for a dose of sunshine in your day. my highlight was the dancing mascot who has the cutest voice.
