Cookie Decorator / Icing Artist

Location: Bartlett Production Facility

Schedule: Full-Time

The Role:
Precision at Scale

We are looking for a talented Cookie Decorator who views a butter cookie as a blank canvas. This role is a unique blend of high-volume production and detailed artistry. You will be responsible for the entire lifecycle of our signature cookies-from precision cutting and baking to intricate icing work. If you have a steady hand, a sharp eye for detail, and the ability to work quickly without sacrificing quality, we want to see your work.

Essential Responsibilities

• Full-Cycle Production: Manage the cutting, baking, and cooling of our butter cookies to ensure the perfect foundation for decorating.
• Icing Artistry: Decorate cookies with flawless consistency, ensuring every batch matches our established "work of art" standards.
• Process Discipline: Follow all decorating patterns and bakery processes exactly as shown. Consistency across hundreds of cookies is our top priority.
• Kitchen Pace: Work with a strong sense of urgency to meet daily production quotas and custom order deadlines.
• Quality Control: Monitor bake times and icing consistency to ensure every cookie meets our taste and aesthetic requirements.
• Workspace Excellence: Assist in keeping the decorating station and general bakery environment clean, sanitized, and organized.

Qualifications & Experience

• Experience: Minimum of 2 years of professional decorating experience, specifically with royal icing or specialized cookie flood techniques (required).
• Education: High school diploma or GED.
• Portfolio: Candidates must demonstrate their ability to produce clean lines, consistent colors, and intricate details.

Knowledge & Skills

• Fine Motor Precision: A steady hand for detailed piping and flooding.
• Logical Prioritization: The ability to manage multiple batches in different stages (baking vs. drying vs. icing).
• Positive Professionalism: The ability to maintain a productive and upbeat attitude with the rest of the decorating team.
• Methodical Approach: A focus on accuracy, ensuring that "Cookie #1" and "Cookie #100" look identical.

Physical Demands & Environment

• Visual Acuity: Must have excellent close-range vision and the ability to distinguish subtle color variations.
• Physical Stamina: Requires standing for long periods, bending, and the ability to lift/move items up to 50 lbs.
• Environment: Climate-controlled retail bakery with occasional exposure to a 0-degree walk-in (cold-weather gear is provided).
