Renowned as the pioneer in the fresh-baked cookie business, Otis Spunkmeyer began in 1977 as a California chain of retail cookie stores. After six years of success, the company shifted its focus to selling its fresh-baked cookie program to other foodservice operations on a wholesale basis. More than twenty-five years later, the company continues to offer this popular program complete with its trademark pre-portioned, gourmet frozen cookie dough, pre-set ovens, and merchandising tools. Otis Spunkmeyer ready-to-bake, frozen cookie dough is the #1 brand in foodservice.

In 1990, Otis Spunkmeyer entered the retail market by rolling out its signature cookie dough in 1 lb. and 5 lb. packages. In that same year, the company added ready-baked muffins to its line of select bakery products. Otis Spunkmeyer Muffins are available in foodservice and retail outlets throughout North America and Europe. Today, Otis Spunkmeyer muffins are the #1 premium muffin brand in retail.

Otis Spunkmeyer continues to be the leading manufacturer and distributor of frozen gourmet cookie dough, ready-baked muffins, and a variety of other premium bakery products to foodservice facilities and retail outlets throughout the United States, Canada, Central and South America and Europe.
