Sweet Success Follows Owner Of Painted Cookie
“I used to bake cookies for the kids,” Panter said. “Then my best friend’s husband, who is a chiropractor, asked me to make cookies for referral gifts for his clients.”
Panter, who lived in Olive Branch, Miss., was used to making a few cookies here or there for children or friends, but not anything like the 22 dozen that was commissioned. The clients who received the cookies then began calling Panter asking if she could prepare cookies for their events, and suddenly The Painted Cookie was born.
Making the move to Murfreesboro to be closer to family — she is from McMinnville — Panter began the search for her storefront and found it not far from downtown, right off Vine Street, across from WGNS and the Murfreesboro Police Department.
