BLONDIE'S COOKIES
When Brenda opened her first cookie store in 1985 at the age of 21, she had no idea just how successful and popular her delicious treats would become. With 12 retail stores, 8 in Indiana and 4 in Florida, Blondie's Cookies grossed approximately $2.2 million last year! The secret behind their cookies? They are baked from scratch everyday. Blondie's Cookies have successfully displaced several of their competitors in Indiana, including Mrs. Fields and Cheryl's Cookies. With a $250,000 investment from the sharks, Brenda will be able to increase product development, expand to other states and larger corporate companies and become the next Mrs. Fields.

COPA DE VINO
Last season, James Martin turned-down Kevin O'Leary's lucrative offer to buy his patented, portable, plastic wine in a cup business. James knew his business was more than just an IP, and now he can prove it, his company grossed $5 million last year. He's coming back to the Sharks to offer them the proverbial second bite of the apple… and offer them one more chance to buy into his wine business – this time at a higher price.
