These are perhaps the best store-bought cookies I know - wonderful texture, really vibrant flavor, not too sweet, very satisfying. You can really taste the fruit, but it doesn't overwhelm the cookie, which is sort of crispy and chewy at the same time. I hope to never be without these to serve to friends, or to have for my sweet tooth moments. (And all the flavors are good.)

We tried the apricot version and were very pleased. The shortbread cookies are delicious - not too heavy or sweet. The apricot is plentiful and oh so tasty too. These are perfect with hot tea or as a light dessert. Another plus is that inside the box the cookies are wrapped in packs of 3 so they stay good for longer.

I got these in the apple flavor - not something I would have picked out on my own, but they are wonderful! Light, buttery, and full of true, not artificial, red apple flavor. I wholeheartedly recommend these, particularly for fall with nice strong tea.

Excellent Flavor

By science boy from Whidbey Island, WA on 9/27/2007

Delicious, Rich

Cons:

A little dry

Best Uses:

Coffee

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Very similar to the imported Danish butter cookies. I had the apricot and I liked the flavor much better than the "currant" butter cookie in the Danish tin
