If, as they say, virtue is its own reward – sometimes cookies
can be an added bonus. To explain: While straightening out a food cabinet last
weekend, I found some treasures from the Sweets and Snacks Expo. One treat I
discovered was a package of Shortbread Fingers from Walkers Shortbread, Inc. (walkersshortbread.com).
The cheery red and green plaid package greeted me like an old
friend. The shortbread inside had the
great, melt in mouth rich taste that I remembered. With the weather getting
colder here in the Midwest, the shortbread is a perfect companion for a cup of
coffee, or, maybe more appropriately, a cup of tea. It’s just sweet enough to
be a light dessert. It would also be good paired with ice cream or fruit.
Pure butter shortbread is one of those great comfort foods.
They are baked in the Scottish Highlands, with just four natural ingredients. They
would also make a good gift and Walkers offers several varieties in an array of
charming tins.
With the holidays approaching, the shortbreads would make a
nice addition for retailers. The
packages would also be a festive addition to a gift basket. And, of course, you
can always offer samples, so your customers can enjoy the goodness.
