The dessert chain Crumbl Cookies has opened at the Staples Plaza in Yorktown Heights. It was a tough job, but elected officials and members of the Yorktown Chamber of Commerce put on a brave face to savor the sweet aroma (and taste) of freshly baked cookies as they welcomed eager locals to one of the bakery’s grand opening events.
Supervisor Ed Lachterman and Councilman Patrick Murphy led the celebrations with a ceremonial ribbon cutting, marking a delicious new chapter for the community.
“We love it when businesses come, especially fun businesses,” said Lachterman. “Yorktown has been an extremely attractive market for businesses seeking communities with an abundance of families, children and teens. We really appreciate Crumbl Cookies’ investment, and we hope it will thrive like the other businesses at the Staples Plaza.”
Known for its rotating menu of gourmet cookies, Crumbl Cookies “has more than 980 stores across the U.S., topping $1 billion in sales across all franchises while selling more than 300 million cookies in 2022,” according to co-founders Jason McGowan and Sawyer Hemsley. The Yorktown Heights franchise is owned by the appropriately named Cinnamon brothers, Justin and Scott.
“We offer six gourmet desserts a week,” said Justin. “We have a rotating menu of more than 300 flavors. Every Sunday night we announce what the new flavors will be on our website.”
Added Councilman Patrick Murphy: “Yorktown is proud to have this new business in our community, and we wish them lots of success.”
And, we can’t resist adding, that’s the way the cookie crumbles.
Crumbl Cookies, 3333 Crompond Road in Yorktown Heights, is open Mondays through Saturdays. For more, visit https://crumblcookies.com/nyyorktownheights.
