    The Cookie Countess, Royal Mahjong Society and Crown & Coastal

    For over 13 years, Hilary Ramos built a company called The Cookie Countess into one of the most trusted and beloved brands in baking and the cookie-decorating world. Yup — it’s a thing. 😉 It’s a world where creativity, community, and craftsmanship come together. After years of designing products that inspire joyful baking, she found herself falling in love with another kind of artistry: mahjong. And in the same way The Cookie Countess began — as a hobby (or, some might say, an obsession) — mahjong quickly became my new creative outlet. She was captivated by the history of the game, the sense of community it builds, and the way every tile set and tablescape tells a story about its owner. She searched for a set that felt like me — one that captured where I pictured playing the game: on our boat, surrounded by the ocean waters of Rhode Island. When sheI couldn’t find exactly what I was dreaming of, she started designing my own. First in her daydreams, and then in reality. The Newport Tile Set was where it all began. It celebrates everything she loves about summers on the East Coast — nautical stripes, lobsters, lighthouses, and hydrangeas, to name just a few icons of that world. From there while searching for the perfect mahjong bag she created Crown & Coastal, a handbag line.  The Royal Mahjong Society and Crown & Coastal were born from that same passion for design and detail that shaped The Cookie Countess — reimagining a classic game through modern themes, thoughtful storytelling, and beautiful craftsmanship.
