BY POPULAR DEMAND!

After debuting last year for Lunar New Year, our limited-edition Almond Shortbread is back for a limited time! We were glad to hear that customers were enjoying it at the start of 2022, and we are happy once again to offer it! If this is your first time hearing about this cookie, here’s a little backstory about how our Almond Shortbread came to be:

Originally, this shortbread was inspired by the classic Almond Cookie that is circular in shape, and features 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 a version of the traditional Almond Cookie that’s popular during the Lunar New Year). The color red is symbolic in Chinese culture of good luck; good fortune; joy; happiness; vitality.

This individually wrapped Almond Shortbread is perfect for sharing with those who bring you joy and happiness all year-round.

Fun Fact: National Chinese Almond Cookie Day is April 9, but why wait until then? We’re continuing to produce this special seasonal shortbread—but for just a bit(e) longer! Be sure to check our Signature Shortbreads page, where you’ll soon be able to order Almond Shortbread online!

Enjoy!
