ALMOND SHORTBREAD: ENJOY FOR A BIT(E) LONGER!
Our limited-edition Almond Shortbread is inspired by the Almond Cookie that’s enjoyed especially during the Chinese Lunar New Year. Those classic cookies are circular in shape, and feature a piece, or sometimes a sliver, of almond.
Our version is in the same shape as our signature shortbreads, and features an edible red dot, similar to what appears on another version of the traditional Almond Cookie. The color red is symbolic in Chinese culture of good luck; good fortune; joy; happiness; vitality.
We created a non-dipped variety and another diagonally dipped in our creamy white coating. These individually wrapped shortbreads are great to share with those who bring you joy and happiness, and to wish them much luck and prosperity throughout the year.
Initially, we were only going to offer these for the Lunar New Year, but due to popular demand, we extended the production run—for a little while longer. Here’s another occasion to share them, to enjoy them, or to try them for the first time: National Chinese Almond Cookie Day is April 9! So order our tasty take today, available in our Almond Shortbread Combo Box. And remember, even after April 9th, there’s still some time left to experience this “good-fortune goodie,” but it’s best to order today anyway. After all, almond good things must come to an end!
