Only 48 Hours Left & Pledges Are Pouring In for Once Upon a Chocolate Chip Cookie 🍪

It’s officially the FINAL countdown — there are just 48 hours left to back Once Upon a Chocolate Chip Cookie on Kickstarter, and things are getting wild in the best way. Pledges are flying in faster than we can bake a batch of chocolate chip cookies, and we are SO close to unlocking every single stretch goal for our sweet community of backers!

When we launched this heartfelt bake-along picture book, we hoped it would resonate with families — but never in our wildest dreams did we expect it to be fully funded in just four hours, let alone raise over $26,000 (and counting!) with 573 amazing backers. 😱👏

Preorder Your Copy

If you’ve been meaning to grab a copy (or want to gift one!), now is absolutely the time. When the clock strikes 7:58 AM CDT on August 7, the campaign closes forever. That means:

• ✅ Your last chance to get the Kickstarter-exclusive hardcover edition

• ✅ The only way to get your name on the “Secret Ingredient” page

• ✅ Access to add-ons like cookie charm necklaces, aprons, and even a personalized video from Missy

• ✅ A chance to get your book before the holidays — perfect for gifting!

📦 Shipping + Add-Ons Update

We’ve officially partnered with PledgeManager, which means right after the campaign ends, you’ll get an email where you can:

• Confirm your shipping details

• Add extra copies of the book

• Grab any last-minute add-ons (necklaces, aprons, plushies, etc.)

• Upgrade your pledge if you want more magic!

Yes — shipping is handled through PledgeManager too, and everything is super user-friendly. Just make sure you use a valid email address when pledging so you don’t miss that survey!
