It's doubtful that anyone was more heart broken than me when the news of Mother's Cookies bankruptcy broke. In disbelief I roamed the aisles of every market in town looking for one last bag of Circus cookies. Those little gems sparkled, especially as a child. Nothing spreads a smile across a little girl's face more quickly than a heaping plate of pink and white frosted cookies, with
sprinkles no less. It seems my cookie depression nearing an end. Today,
serious eats posted news of Kellogg's purchase of the Bay Area cookie company. Here's what they had to say:
Kellogg Company plans on reintroducing many of Mother's Cookies back into stores on the West coast by June, 2009. While we may not have all varieties of Mother's Cookies available at that time, we are working on some of your favorites like Mother's Circus Animals, Mother's Iced Oatmeal cookies, Mother's Parade Animal cookies, Mother's Chocolate Chip, Mother's Coconut Cocadas, Mother's Macaroons, Mother's Taffy Sandwich cookies, Mother's English Tea cookies, Mother's Double Fudge Sandwich cookies, Mother's Vanilla Crème Sandwich cookies, and Mother's Iced Lemon cookies.Image, via food librarian.
