An edible cookie dough company is searching for taste testers to judge new, top-secret flavours.

Gookie Dough - a gourmet edible cookie dough company based in Nottingham - will send out a box of four limited edition cookie dough flavours every month for one year.

Taste testers will need to share their thoughts on the cookie dough's taste, texture, smell, quality and appearance.

The job advert reads: "You must have a passion for cookie dough & possess extremely sensitive taste buds to be able to advise us on the tiniest of changes in recipes.

"We know our cookie dough is the best & now we are looking to expand our flavour range through the help of this new team of taste testers to perfect the recipes.
"We cannot wait for the successful candidates to join us!"

Gookie Dough added: ⁠"Apply for the greatest job in the world and become a real-life cookie monster!⁠"

Anyone who wishes to apply for this dream job should send off their application here.

Other taste-testing roles

There's lots of taste-testing roles currently on offer in the UK.

Artisan doughnut maker Project D needs people with a sweet-tooth to take it to the "next level".

Successful volunteers will receive a box of six different doughnuts once a week for a month and must provide feedback on quality, selection, flavours and toppings.

Meanwhile you can also get paid to eat cheese and drink wine this Christmas as Cartwright and Butler's official food reviewer.
