The owner
My name is Sophie McArthur, and I am the owner of Sophie’s Sweets Cookies and More. I've created this business with the intent to make the world a little sweeter. Whether it’s cookies, cupcakes, brownies, or cheesecakes, I aspire to share my love for baking with the world.
It would be incredibly easy to say that my love for baking sparked overnight, however that would be far from the truth. It all started during the 2020 Covid-19 lockdown, scrolling on TikTok, when a simple sugar cookie recipe popped up on my For You Page. I thought to myself “I have the ingredients, definitely the time, and nothing better to do, so why not try it?” and I did. That moment changed my life. That was when I realized that baking would turn into my new hobby. Since then, my love and passion for baking has grown more and more each day.

How It Started
How My Business Came To Be
Surprisingly or not, my business actually began in high school. When baking became more evident in my life, so did it in the lives of my friends, family, and peers as many were the ones that advocated for me to go public. With sweaty hands and many doubting thoughts, I posted on my personal Instagram account that I would be selling treats for the first time ever and asked if anyone was interested. The interest started with just my bandmates but, as time went on, the word spread faster than I could have imagined. I began expanding from just cheesecakes, to cookies, cupcakes, brownies and more. Before I knew it, my messages were full with pre-porders and I found myself in the kitchen on many school nights, up late baking for the following days. Since then, I've made many close connections and repeat customers, which I have been so grateful for.
