Fancy Fortune Cookies®:

A colorful family business since 1988

Colorful Company History

Fresh-baked in Indianapolis. Custom messages. Bold colors and flavors. Real humans who answer the phone.

We’re Fancy Fortune Cookies®, a fun, family-run bakery in Indianapolis, Indiana—and we’ve been baking personalized fortune cookies (and giant fortune cookies!) since 1988.

We’re known for doing what other cookie companies can’t (or won’t): bold colors, unexpected flavors, gorgeous finishes, and custom messages that make people laugh, cry, propose, celebrate, and feel seen—all in one crunchy bite.

What we’re known for

  • Custom fortunes (Your Words - Our Yum, inside jokes, brand messaging, Logos, and more)
  • Bright colors + flavored cookies (we pioneered them)

  • Chocolate-dipped and decorated cookies

  • Giant fortune cookies for unforgettable gifts and moments

  • Fast turnarounds and “yes, we can probably do that” energy

Our story: innovation, mischief, and a whole lot of joy

A gourmet fortune cookie company should have a colorful past—and we definitely do. Our founder, Mike Fry, invented the concept of flavored and colored fortune cookies and spent decades dreaming up new ways to make fortune cookies more fun, more delicious, and more unforgettable.

Today, we carry that same spirit forward—still innovating, still baking fresh, still creating custom cookies for everyone from individuals planning a party to national brands running major promotions.

Bling Fortune Cookies

Hi, I’m Erin Jump Fry (CEO + “stuntwoman”)

I’m Erin, and I’ve been a co-owner and hands-on partner in all things fortune cookie since 2005. Over the years, I’ve taken on more and more of the day-to-day leadership—sales, customer care, and helping people turn ideas into cookies that wow.

If you’ve ever thought:

  • “Can we put our message inside?”

  • “Can we match our brand colors?”

  • “Can we make these extra dramatic?”

  • “Can you help us pull this off fast?”

…you’re my people. Call us—this is what we do.

Handmade in the USA.

Baked fresh in Indianapolis.

We bake all our fortune cookies right here in the U.S.A., in our Indianapolis bakery. We don’t outsource any part of the process—and we even print our own custom fortunes.

We’re proud to provide solid jobs for American families and to keep our quality (and creativity) in-house.

Why fortune cookies?

Because everyone opens them.

A fortune cookie is an irresistible message delivery system.

Inside every cookie is a moment: encouragement, optimism, laughter, surprise—something that sticks.

We’d love to help you create that moment for your people.

Carmel Dipped Fortune Cookies

Ingredients you can taste

Our cookies are made with care and intention—fresh ingredients, thoughtfully sourced, and crafted in small batches to order. For example, we’re known for our classic vanilla cookie, and we use a higher grade of vanilla than you’d find in a typical restaurant cookie.

We avoid the “warehouse cookie” approach. Our cookies are baked fresh—because you can taste the difference.

And yes: we take chocolate seriously. You can order cookies dipped and/or drizzled in white, milk, or dark chocolate as well as caramel—and we’ve spent years refining our chocolate process to deliver a smooth, craveable bite.

The “wow” factor: giant cookies + wild custom possibilities

Want something unforgettable? Our giant fortune cookies are nearly a pound and can be customized in vibrant colors and flavors—with giant matching fortunes and full-color personalization options.

We also love building over-the-top creations (like candy-topped, candy-stuffed giants) because fortune cookies should feel like an experience, not just a dessert.

Corporate cookie gifts

Trusted by big brands—and made for your big moment

Over the years, we’ve worked with major companies, celebrities, hotels, and media—plus thousands of customers planning weddings, birthdays, graduations, corporate events, and surprise gifts.

We’ve fulfilled enormous orders (including one promotion with over a million custom cookies) and we’re just as happy helping with smaller, highly personal projects too. Read our RAVE reviews here.

We’re also known for fast, can-do problem solving—like producing cookies on a tight deadline when a TV segment needed them the next morning.

Contact us today—your idea is probably possible (and we’ll be honest if it isn’t).
