About: Schmackary’s
| Zachary Schmahl, known as “Schmackary” created his namesake bakery in 2012 out of his passion for baking and Broadway. Zach moved to NYC to pursue a dream in acting but, as luck would have it, created a cookie culture instead. Inspired by nostalgic childhood memories, Zach created a souped-up spin on cookie classics. These days Schmackary’s has more than 75 flavors, some of which include Funfetti, Maple Bacon, Cookies and Cream, Oatmeal Scotchie, Schmackaroni and Cheese, Sch’mores and Lucky Charmed to name a few. |
Chef's Note
Schmackary’s creates perfectly round and wonderfully constructed flat cookies. They do this by “smashing” the cookies, or flattening them, halfway through the baking process. This helps the cookie hold shape. They always smash with a large flat spatula.
Experience
Our experiences at Schmackary’s are always extremely positive. The main location in Midtown is decently sized with indoor seating. The staff is fantastic, always boasting an energetic and positive mood regardless of how chaotic the bakery gets. The cookies and treats are displayed deliciously behind the glass with many coffee options, hot chocolate, water and milk all available to order. You will get your goodies in a Schmackary’s box, or you can spend a little extra and buy a cool Schmackary’s tin.
Review
Appearance
The Schmackary’s Cookies and Cream cookie is large, hefty and flat. It’s spectacularly black with Schmackary’s signature frosting smeared over the top. The color of the frosting can vary depending on the season or celebration they are observing.
Touch
The cookie has some weight to it. It feels a little dry with a slightly rough exterior. The icing is thick and applied generously.
Smell
The smell is sweet from the icing. The cookie gives off a buttery, chocolatey aroma. It’s a very aromatic cookie because of the fragrance given off by the frosting.
Taste
The first bite is soft and chewy. The flavor of the chocolate is enjoyable but not overpowering. The icing, although sweet, is fantastic. We, like most cheaters, don’t love overly sweet things. However, the combination of great frosting with a deliciously flavored cookie negates the sweetness for us. We love basically everything at Schmackary’s. It’s a great place to score some cheat day treats. And who doesn’t love to score?
What to Tell Your Friends
A perfectly baked cookie with a flawless combination of soft texture and chewy bites. The generous portion of frosting on top is sweet but goes incredibly well with each and every cookie creation at Schmackary’s.
