Dough Gold is a premium, small-batch cookie dough manufacturer based out of Eagan Minnesota. We developed our recipe with the mission of providing clean cookie dough to people that care through simple, clean ingredients and no preservatives. Our family is committed to bringing you the best tasting cookie period. Irish fair has been a tradition in my family since 1994. We attended every year—my sisters performed Irish dance, my mom coached and my brothers and I enjoyed the festivities. Now that we have our own family, we want our children to feel as much part of the community as we have felt over the years. Follow Dough Gold here.
