The DOUGH-preneur cart is the simplest way to be part of the Alumni family. There's no storefront, no kitchen and no prep. Just sealed 4 oz cups of our award-winning dough with a spoon in every lid, and the freedom to set up wherever the crowd is.
Founded in Athens in 2019 by UGA graduates Jennifer and Mike Dollander, Alumni Cookie Dough has been named Best Dessert in Georgia five years running. Now we're licensing exclusive territories to entrepreneurs across the Southeast.
