As soon as we entered the shop the smell immediately brought back childhood memories. It comes of no surprise that the taste of the cookies brought the same warm feeling of when I was a child. The cookies tasted like home to me. The wholesome ingredients were the same type of basic simple ingredients my Mom used. The cookies are baked daily with fresh ingredients like real butter and nuts without added preservatives. The cookies were a delectable treat and we were honored to have met the owner & baker Elizabeth Kizito!
We purchased a snickerdoodle, ginger snap, white chocolate chip, and oatmeal cookies. These cookies were recommended to me. I thought the snickerdoodle needed more sweetness. I must not like ginger snap cookies but they smell great. The oatmeal cookie was dry. The white chocolate chip cookie was quite good. The service was good. The cookies just did not match my taste.
My Wife and I have been eating these wonderful cookies starting the in 1990’s to present day. So very glad that our beautiful Sister has made a brand that is great. May God continue to bless her efforts. ❤️👑🙏🏾
Elizabeth kizito is such a kind, humble, & hardworking lady. I stopped by for the first time today and chatted with her & I got to say, Louisville is very blessed to have her. Her cookies were also excellent which made me wished I couldve bought more...nonetheless, this is one of the local businesses I will continue to support so long as Louisville is still my home.
Two words delicious cookies muffins and biscottis of different flavors made from the hands of the motherland... Mount Kilimanjaro gingersnaps on my favorite, all cookies are made fresh, and as an extra bonus there are so many African artifacts to choose from jungle animals carved from wood, staff /scepter, walking sticks, jewelry trees, mask, necklaces, earrings and rings, hats and clothing so take a tour and have a taste of Kizito😋
I ordered the pumpkin chocolate chip cookies and they arrived today. They are so delicious! I would definitely recommend them. They arrived so quickly, everything about my experience with this company was wonderful!
Love this place. Superb cookies! Lots of choices too.
The best cookies in Kentucky. Espicially the oatmeal. They are the best to be found. Highly recommended if you enjoy cookies. The chocolate chip and the sugar cookies are also favorites.
Great lady! Greets you with a huge, kind smile and lets you feel like part of the deeply cultural family.
I love these cookies. I live in Cincinnati and 20 plus years ago I was visiting my sister. We went to the Cherokee art festival and I remember saying “what’s she got in that basket?” Little did I know that she had quite possibly the best cookie I’ve ever had. Now if my sister doesn’t get me at least a dozen for my birthday every year I will disown her.
I ordered a variety pack of a dozen Kizito cookies on Sunday and they arrived on Wednesday. They shipped perfectly and had a very nice presentation. They are big and chewy and beautiful and delicious. I plan to send them as thank you gifts in my business. So happy to have found Kizito Cookies!

Wonderful little local bakery that might just be Louisvilles best kept secret. Everyone coming to town should try a Kizito cookie, they are freakin delicious and come in countless varieties.
Interesting store with some great eclectic gift items. Let’s not fail to mention the best cookies in Louisville, if not the world!
Always AWESOME!
My daughter moved to Indiana years ago but still remembers the Kitzo cookies. She requested that I bring some up when I visit but I kept forgetting! I felt really guilty when I visited last weekend empty handed. So I ordered them online yesterday. I worried that they would get stale even though they are well packaged. Well, the shipping was free and I just received a text from her “Thanks Mom! They’re delicious!” They arrived in one day!! Yay! Thank you!
Great place!!! Love just about every Cookie . Will go back.
A family recipe passed on generation to generation and brought to America by 1 woman to give the warmth of a good cookie muffin of incredible flavor and in a smile youll warm your heart over in every bite. KIZITO COOKIES ARE THE BEST!
Excellent cookies. In town visiting and had to stop by.
Best cookies and brownies in the world, period. No words can describe how good they are. Love every bit of it!
Who doesnt love the Kizito cookie lady? This place is awesome! Highly recommended for cookies, jewelry, etc.
A great store with great cookies and lots of wonderfully fascinating imported novelties! Quite a unique and fascinating store in terms of Bardstown shops!
Started right here in the city and has become a part of our fabric. Cookies are delicious, but the peanut butter blondies are better. Wonderful store front.
Elizabeth used to come to my high school and talk about her journey to American and how her business became so successful, through hard work. She is truly an inspiration and an amazing person, and her cookies are fantastic!
