NEW BEDFORD — Attention cookie lovers, there’s now a way to satisfy that evening confectionery craving while supporting a New Bedford bakery.
Let’s Get Baked Cookies is a newly launched cookie service available 5 to 10 p.m. on Fridays and Saturday, delivering warm from the over within a 30-mile radius, from its “ghost kitchen” location at On the Run Cinnabun on Rockdale Avenue.
The store then transforms into her exclusive cookie delivery service. "Cookies are a great all-American treat,” owner Mary Kelly-Zis said. “People love cookies and they’re good anytime.

“I’ve wanted to do something like this for a while because there’s a need for this,” she said. According to Kelly-Zis, her cookie is unique. “They’re 4.5-5 ounces, almost a half a pound,” Kelly-Zis added. “And they have so much flavor.”

The menu features 13 cookie flavors. Kelly-Zis says their best seller is the chocolate chip but the peanut butter one sounds just as yummy. “We have a peanut butter base, then crushed Reese’s peanut butter cups, then roll it in roasted peanuts, then add chocolate chips.”
Kelly-Zis noted any cookies containing nuts are baked separately from her other cookies to accommodate allergies. The shop also offers brownies, cookie dough and cereal milk such as fruity pebbles, cocoa puffs, cinnamon toast crunch, plain, coffee and chocolate.

And big news, Let’s Get Baked Cookies will be selling the Mariah Carey cookie line, Mariah’s Cookies, featuring eight flavors. Kelly-Zis says she has the exclusive rights, in a 35-mile radius and the singer’s treats will be available starting March 5.
How it all started
Born and raised in New Bedford, Kelly-Zis learned to bake from her Nan, but, would bake frequently with her sister and mom. “My mom is an awesome baker,” Kelly-Zis said. “I learned from who I consider to be the best in the business.”
A Voc-Tech (class of 1991) alum, Kelly-Zis first opened a little French bakery in 2015 called “Le Desserterie.” After only a year, she had to make the difficult decision to close. Then, in summer 2019, she made a triumphant return with her seasonal shop, Dough Fairhaven. It was the success of her dough (also available for pick-up and delivery) that led her to crossover into the cookie world.
In Summer 2020, Kelly-Zis opened On the Run Cinnabun. The 750 square-foot shop is located in the old Wallie’s Café, only a stone’s throw away from Buttonwood Park. “It’s a very homey kitchen, a cozy experience in there,” she said. “When you come into the shop, in the morning, you’re going to smell cinnamon.”

Kelly-Zis runs the store with her 18-year-old daughter, Kat. “It was a great opportunity for her to do something so close with me, we’re almost a partnership… It’s helping to make money to pay for her college.”
The name, “Let’s Get Baked Cookies” was her daughter's idea. “She thought it would attract the younger crowd,” Kelly-Zis said. “They’re probably the ones looking for a late-night snack.”
Every 20 minutes we’re pumping cookies out of the oven,” she said. “They’re warm, they’re fresh, they’re soft.” And rest-assured, Kelly-Zis says the cookies stay warm in the containers for up to 30-40 minutes when out for delivery.
“I love to bake and I love making people happy,” Kelly-Zis said. “Baking something delicious to make people smile or happy...that’s what this is all about.”
Let’s Get Baked Cookie is available to order online, pick up in person and curbside take-away at 218 Rockdale Avenue. Their menu is available on their website. Follow on their official Facebook for more information. Catering options are also available.
