Busy Mom Aims To Succeed With Cookies
A lifelong stress-relieving activity has made Rachel Tedeschi a hero with her family, especially her children and their friends. Now Tedischi hopes to cash in on that activity, making old-fashioned homemade cookies.
Family and friends have been telling her for years that she should be selling her baked goods, but she just thought they were compliments and didn’t take it too seriously.
“I’ve always been intrigued by anything food-related,” Tedeschi said. “People have said, ‘Oh, you should sell these.’ I have three kids so I always thought, ‘That’s not going to happen.’” In addition to being a mother of three, Tedeschi also works as a real estate broker.
When Tedeschi sent a batch of treats from a new recipe to her brother earlier this year, he called her up specifically to again suggest she seriously consider going into business selling her treats.
This time, she did give it serious thought, and Rachel’s Cookies and Treats was born.
On Tuesday afternoon, Tedeschi sat in the kitchen at the Grab A Chef restaurant, wearing an apron with her logo on it and samples of her treats in front of her.
“There’s something warming and soulful about cookies. They make people happy,” Tedeschi said of deciding on the cookie business out of all her cooking endeavors.
She wanted one more summer to spend with her children before immersing herself in the new venture, but after getting her official documents ready over the summer she is ready to go full force with her all-natural cookies.

Good for her that she can make a living out of doing something that she not only loves to do, other people are loving her product and at the same time it serves as a stress releiver for her! That is awesome.
