BY VICTORIA TAYLOR NEW YORK DAILY NEWS Published: Monday, August 18, 2014, 2:47 PM Updated: Monday, August 18, 2014, 2:47PM. Life is sweet for Cory Nieves. The bespectacled 10-year-old CEO of Mr. Cory's Cookies is building a dessert empire and has gained national attention for his treats as well as his designer threads — all before starting fifth grade. Mr. Cory's story dates back to 2009. He started off selling hot cocoa, lemonade and cookies from a stand in Englewood, N.J. Now, Mr. Cory's Cookies are available at markets and events in New Jersey and New York. He has even brought his pop-up store to a West Elm furniture store in Chelsea and is working to make his all-natural cookie dough available online. What makes his cookies special?

“They are made with love,” Mr. Cory told the Daily News. “They look scrumptious and they make your mouth water.” The pint-sized businessman also has a flair for fashion. Mr. Cory often showcases his sophisticated sense of style on his Instagram account, where he has more 24,000 followers. “I love because of the colors and the nice presentation,” he said. His favorite brands and designers include J. Crew, Ralph Lauren and Tom Ford, and he is a fan of the pocket square. Mr. Cory’s career goes beyond baking and sharing Instagram pics. The preteen is also an actor and child model and was featured, fittingly enough, in a Pillsbury commercial in 2012.
