Tiff’s Treats is opening its 8th Austin store in Steiner Ranch this month and is hosting a grand opening on Dec. 16 with cookie deals, giveaways and fundraising.
Austin-based Tiff’s Treats — the first in the nation to create the warm cookie delivery concept — will now have 31 Texas stores with its new Steiner shop.
The company has been servicing the Steiner and Lakeway areas through a courier service for some time but until this latest addition, it did not have a store close enough to send its own delivery drivers.
