Recent Chow Review!!

Below is a posting from the Chow website where the lovely TLC shortbread cookie received a wonderful and delicious review.

This Little Cookie's shortbread cookie

While at Rainbow Grocery yesterday, I spied a tall package of a dozen shortbread cookies that looked good. They are made by This Little Cookie. Molasses cookies are also available. I wasn't sure about buying the large package of what surely were expensive cookies (no price on display) that I had never tried, so I was happy to see a package of 4 at the checkout stand. I bought the small package instead.

These shortbread cookies are nothing short of outstanding. For me, they are the Platonic ideal of the shortbread cookie. They have the perfect sweet/salty (she uses fleur de sel), perfect buttery-ness, and perfect color and texture. Best cookie I have had in eons, and I sent them a note telling them so. Turns out that This Little Cookie is a company started by a (current) baker at Tartine. Her bio says she's also worked with Michael Recchiuti and at Chez Panisse. She does special order cakes and other goods too. Her damn shortbread cookie has made a believer out of me.

I have zero connection to the business and I don't know the owner or anyone connected with it, just to be clear.

Everything is custom to fit your taste buds. I work with my clients to create a heavenly treat taylored to your dessert desires!! We can then schedule a tasting where I will make a small version of the treats you will be having at your big event.
