How to check if a cookie is set in laravel

Question

I have made a cookie with my controller and this seems to work because if I check my resources in my developer tools it is there. But now I want to do actions with it in my view , but this doesn't seem to work , this is the code I used in my view:

@if (Cookie::get('cookiename') !== false)
    <p>cookie is set</p>
@else
    <p>cookie isn't set</p>
@endif

this is always returning 'true'

Can anyone help me ?

Hello @kartik,

You can change:

@if (Cookie::get('cookiename') !== false)

to

@if (Cookie::get('cookiename') !== null)

Hope it helps!!

Thank You!!
