We had the good fortune of connecting with Ashley Carlton and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Ashley, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
Not As Famous Cookie Company is a gourmet cookie shop on wheels that caters to cookie lovers and others with a sweet tooth that desire gourmet treats. A great tasting cookie is an idea that my father, Mr. Ronald Carlton, envisioned many years ago. He created several recipes for gourmet cookies which he intended to market to various businesses that desired a gourmet product. Watching him develop the base of these great recipes has largely been the driving force behind my aspiration/desire/want to further the development of the business.

What should our readers know about your business?
Not As Famous Cookie Company distinguishes itself from other gourmet vendors by offering gourmet cookies that are freshly made with only the finest of ingredients. Hence, the company will make a better cookie! We always knew we had a great family recipe, but now we share this experience with the world. We are a family owned and operated business in every sense of the word. At Not As Famous we want every single customer to feel like family as they enjoy our delicious gourmet cookies.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
The atlanta beltline. So much fun between the james room, Ponce city market and other bars. Also lots of history with civil rights museum, MLK museum and more
