The Story of Naperville's Favorite Dessert Shop
Since 1994, Cookie Dough Creations has been serving sweet nostalgia. Learn about our local, family-owned ice cream shop on the Naperville Riverwalk.
A Family-Owned Naperville Tradition
Founded on tradition and powered by community, we are a true Naperville original. When local couple Jeff and Nikki Schultz took over in 2017, they preserved the institution known for its edible, egg-free cookie dough–was up for sale. To preserve a beloved local business with deep roots and flavor, they stepped in and carried the torch. They joined a three-decade legacy, and today Jeff and Nikki are proud to continue the mission that began with founder Jim Bewersdorf in 1994.
From Our Naperville Family to Yours
What began as one person’s leap of faith has become a family pursuit. Jeff, Nikki, Sami, and Tommy bring passion, consistency, and a touch of creativity. We believe every dessert shop should tell a story–and ours is one of preserving community tradition, honoring a legacy recipe, and delighting customers. Cookie Dough Creations is more than sugar, butter, and dough–it’s a Naperville staple, lovingly maintained by neighbors for neighbors.
