Raising the bar on delicious.
Want to know what it takes to be Fancypants?
We’re not shy about telling you. We are proud to make our cookies with the real, recognizable ingredients our founder, Maura, used in her own kitchen. That means bonafide butter and eggs, with zero junky or artificial ingredients to ruffle your feathers. And we do it in a way that’s deliciously sustainable—baking with upcycled oat flour and turning our food waste into renewable energy.
We do all of that so you can have your own feel good, fancy moment. Whether it’s at the end of a long day or even at the beginning of one, we’re here to make your day feel just a smidge more special.
A little oven.
A lot of heart.
Maura graduated from Harvard with a master’s degree in Mind, Brain, and Education, but day after day she kept turning to baking to shake off the stress of working in statistical analysis. Inspired by the cookies she used to eat after school in her grandmother’s kitchen, Maura focused on real ingredients, homemade taste, and creating a delicious moment.
Seeing her passion (and tasting her cookies) her husband, Justin, quit his job as an elementary school teacher to make the other half of the amazing team that drives Fancypants today. Since 2004, they’ve made cookies that make you feel downright good, with incredible taste, great ingredients, and a positive impact baked right in.
