Why it's worth checking out

The Cookie Box Hawthorn is a dedicated dessert stop on Glenferrie Road, offering chunky artisan cookies that are baked fresh and available to build into boxes of three, six or 12. The shop also offers delivery across Melbourne and Australia, with customers able to choose a delivery date when ordering. Smaller boxes suit a personal treat or gift, while the larger options are positioned for sharing with family, friends or colleagues. Corporate gifting is also available for teams, clients and end-of-year occasions.

The cookies are described as crisp on the outside and gooey in the centre, with a menu built around generous fillings and Belgian chocolate. Regular choices include The Classic, made with vanilla dough, dark and milk Belgian chocolate, and Triple Chocolate, which combines chocolate dough with all three Belgian chocolate varieties. Red Velvet has a cream cheese frosting filling, while Macadamia pairs roasted macadamias with white chocolate. Other named options include Nutella, Churros with dulce de leche and cinnamon, and a vegan vanilla cookie with Belgian dark chocolate. A gluten-free version of The Classic is also listed, although it is made in a kitchen that handles gluten products.

The monthly special adds a changing option to the menu. At the time represented on the website, that is Miso Peanut Butter, made with miso dough and peanut butter chips. The Hawthorn shop is part of a wider Melbourne presence that also includes locations in Windsor, the CBD and Fitzroy, giving the brand a local footprint as well as its delivery service. For a straightforward visit, the focus is firmly on choosing cookies and assembling a box rather than a broad café menu or a full sit-down dining experience.

The Cookie Box began experimenting with recipes in 2015 before opening its first store in Perth in 2017. After growing through markets, a pop-up shop and a cookie van, the team moved into Melbourne in 2020, opening in Chapel Street before expanding to Hawthorn. Their stated approach centres on using quality ingredients, refining recipes and making food that brings people together. That makes the Hawthorn venue a practical choice for solo cookie runs, small gifts, family sharing, office treats or anyone wanting to try several flavours in one order.
