About

Loraine, a chef by trade and having tried many cookies in her lifetime, found her inspiration in a Rosemary Shortbread at a summer party.

After some experimenting, she arrived at her family-approved recipe. Though loved by her catering guests, her cookies gained their name and popularity at her youngest son's summer job, after Blake regularly shared his mother's cookies.

Loraine realized their potential, expanding production and flavors, beginning to offer Blake's Mother's Cookies at the farm first, growing to serve shops across the country, still small batch, handcrafted and family-approved.

 

Loraine's local 6abc Action News presented Blake's Mother's Cookies to its East Coast audience and shared her inspiring Shortbread story.

It has been a fun journey, experimenting with flavors, developing different packaging,  learning, gaining great working relationships, and appreciative customers around the country. All this to become the brand you know and love.

    HOW IT ALL BEGAN. . .

    Loraine's youngest son, Blake, got a summer job working at a farm market and she'd send her homemade shortbread cookies with his lunch. Word got out about the cookies, and the rest is sweet and tasty history…

    DELICIOUS BY DESIGN

    We cut our cookies thin on purpose, so they aren't like a traditional shortbread — we prefer a more delicate cookie. Our shortbread names are an ode to the Hamptons on Long Island in New York.
