One thing I’ve learned about moving across the country is that products you may be used to “back home” aren’t necessarily available in your new location. “Do you have _____ there?” has become a common part of conversation with friends and family back West – whether it be a store, restaurant, or favorite items found on store shelves.
Until recently, I hadn’t even thought about Mother’s Cookies not being available everywhere in the US. The yummy treats seemed like such a “normal” part of childhood, I figured everyone shared the memory of the cute Mother’s logo and delightful taste of my all-time favorite pink & white frosted Circus Animal cookies. You know what made those my favorite? The crack of the frosting, plus the crunch of the cookie, then the snap of the colored sprinkles = YUM!
Well, it turns out that not everyone *has* had the pleasure of buying Mother’s Cookies, as they are only now branching into markets in Kansas City and the midwest. Lucky you! Whether it’s a bag of chocolate chip cookies, a tray of iced oatmeal cookies, or another of Mother’s delicious cookies, I’m sure you’ll enjoy these as a special family treat. Folks in Kansas City and the midwest – as well as all around the country! – can use the Store Locator to see where Mother’s Cookies are sold, or buy online from Amazon’s Mother’s Cookies storefront.
For more information on Mother’s Cookies market expansion, here’s a remarkably interesting press release on the topic. (and trust me, I don’t usually offer press releases as recommended reading!)
And finally, because I adore the spirit and nostaliga of these commercials, here’s a collection of old Mother’s Cookies commercials, filmed with actual employees (years of service are listed for each). Enjoy!
*Disclosure [and a note]: “I wrote this review while participating in a blog tour campaign by Mom Central on behalf of Mother’s Cookies and received two bags of cookies and a $20 Amazon gift certificate to facilitate my review.” [By the way, we received the Circus Animal Mother's Cookies while the kids were home and I was at the grocery store. My 5 kids ate an entire bag of the cookies before I even got home, but they were gracious enough to save me the second bag. Clearly I am raising Mother's Cookies fans of my own.]
