OUR STORY

It all started when I was just 12 years old. My family owned a bakery, as well as a chain of hotels, at which I would bounce back-and-forth to help. But something always drew me back to the bakery. I could truly utilize my passion for design and creativity... not to mention satisfy my sweet tooth! Coccadotts was born because of my passion for design and food.

So, in 2007 when I was a young girl with big dreams, I took a leap of faith and opened my first location in Albany. It took a lot of hard work, and help from my family and many friends, but in a short amount of time we really made a name for ourselves. From that little shop on the avenue in Albany, New York all the way to Hollywood, California.

People often think the name Coccadotts has something to do with “Cocoa” that many of us have used for baking. But, thats not the correct spelling or word. It actually has a unique and very special meaning to me! My maiden name is Cocca, and after marrying my husband, Luke Dott, my name became Cocca-Dott. It was cute and it worked. Now, it is a popular home brand.

Almost 15 years later, and tons of cupcakes and cake batter, we have grown and expanded down the east coast. It would be impossible to serve so many daily customers without the help of my family.  Luke took on the role of our day to day operations, and my father, Jim and stepmother, Michele, took over our Myrtle Beach location.

Although we have grown and changed very much over these last few years, one thing will never change: our desire to make you, our customers, happy. Taste, freshness, appearance and customer satisfaction are qualities that will never be sacrificed at Coccadotts.
