What barbee cookies does

Barbee Cookies is a Tulsa, Oklahoma-based gourmet cookie bakery founded by Kat Graham in 2010, with family baking traditions dating to 1999. The company sells gourmet cookies, cookie cakes, custom-decorated cookies, cookie catering, and corporate gift boxes from a catalog of 132+ skus, with prices ranging from $2.47 per cookie to $150 for cookie cakes and charcuterie boards. It operates two retail locations in Tulsa (South Tulsa at 8393 S Memorial Drive and a downtown location), offers local delivery within the Tulsa area, distributes nationwide via a $9.77 flat-rate shipping program on its Shopify e-commerce platform, and fulfills on-demand orders through DoorDash. Custom decorated cookies and cookie cakes require 24–48 hours of advance notice, and gluten-free and vegan options are available for most product lines.

The company is privately held and family-owned, with Kat Graham as Founder and Co-Owner alongside her daughter Hallee Graham (who co-created the signature cinnamon roll cookie) and co-founder Kelli Stacy. The customer base spans individual consumers for personal occasions, event planners and celebrants, and corporate accounts served through a dedicated corporate gifting website (barbeecookiescorporategifts.com). Revenue is generated entirely through one-time purchase transactions across retail, e-commerce, local delivery, marketplace, and bulk/event orders, with no disclosed subscription, licensing, or recurring revenue model. The technology stack is centered on Shopify for e-commerce and a flat-rate nationwide shipping infrastructure; there is no mobile app, no disclosed API, and no advertised AI capabilities. Barbee Cookies has been featured in regional and national media including MSN.com, Southern Living, Good Housekeeping, ABC News, Fox News, and Tulsa World, and donates cookies to local Oklahoma nonprofits.

Direct peers

• Crumbl Cookies: Crumbl is the largest US specialty cookie chain with 1,000+ locations and a rotating weekly menu. It directly competes with Barbee in gourmet cookies, nationwide shipping, and Instagram-driven DTC marketing, but operates at vastly larger scale.
• Insomnia Cookies: Insomnia is a direct-to-consumer cookie delivery brand with late-night delivery and nationwide shipping. Same product category, same core customer (young gifting/snacking audience), and similar e-commerce-led model.
• Tiff's Treats: Tiff's Treats is a cookie delivery concept with multiple physical locations and a strong gifting/occasion focus. Highly comparable to Barbee on occasion-based (birthday, celebration) ordering and warm-cookie delivery.
• Levain Bakery: Levain is a gourmet cookie shop known for oversized premium cookies with nationwide shipping. Similar product positioning (premium, handcrafted, fresh-baked) and similar DTC-plus-flagship-store model to Barbee.
• Baked by Melissa: Baked by Melissa sells bite-sized cupcakes and mini cookies via DTC e-commerce with nationwide shipping. Comparable on mini-cookie SKU strategy, gift packaging, and e-commerce-first sales model.
• Milk Bar: Milk Bar is a dessert/bakery brand with nationwide shipping of signature baked goods (cookies, cakes, layered treats). Comparable on DTC shipping, novelty dessert products, and strong social-media-driven brand.
• Magnolia Bakery: Magnolia Bakery is an iconic bakery with multiple retail locations and nationwide shipping of cupcakes, cookies, and pies. Comparable retail-bakery-plus-e-commerce model with strong brand recognition.

Broad incumbents

• Mrs. Fields: Mrs. Fields is a long-established cookie brand with mall kiosks, retail products, and DTC shipping. Larger brand footprint but lower artisanal positioning; broadly competes with Barbee in the gifting cookie category.
• Great American Cookies: Great American Cookies operates mall-based cookie cake shops across the US. Competes directly with Barbee's cookie cake line and decorated/celebration cookie offerings, but as a franchise model rather than family bakery.

Emerging players

• Cookies & Dreams / Shared Bake Cookies: Smaller direct-to-consumer cookie delivery concepts with a similar artisanal/small-batch positioning as Barbee. Comparable on shipping fulfillment model and premium positioning, though smaller in scale.
