Bountiful • Like many family-owned businesses, Cutler’s Cookies and Sandwiches began with a simple idea. Sandra Cutler wanted to start a small business in 1979 that would sell homemade bread and cookies. She opened the first store at Bountiful’s Five Points Mall. Four years later, the family-run operation moved to the town’s Main Street, offering sandwiches and salads in addition to cookies.
