It Takes A Tough Mom To Make Tender Cookies


delawareonline:

The delicious fragrance greets visitors as soon as they step onto the driveway of the Leishears’ home in Milton.

The scent emanates from a nondescript building behind the garage. This is the home of Bella’s Cookies, Delaware’s only natural and organic cookie company.

The beach-area business, located in farmland just minutes from busy Del. 1, began in 2004. But the cookies are now so popular that owners Kelly and Mark Leishear are contemplating a West Coast location to ease shipping costs to distribution sites in California and Seattle.

The idea for the business stemmed from the family’s devotion to healthful food. Leishear, a vegan, is a runner and fitness buff who gets up at 4:50 a.m. to work out.

When Kelly and Mark Leishear moved to Milton, she baked holiday gifts for Mark’s clients. (He handles marketing and advertising for WBOC-TV.) The other moms at daughter Bella’s preschool were intrigued by Bella’s homemade snacks.

The interest prompted the couple to open a business, which started in their home kitchen. Since home bakeries are not allowed to sell wholesale to stores, the couple built the backyard bakery in May 2006.
