We’ve only just heard that cupcakes and cake pops are considered passé and macarons dismissed as mundane. The only way to stay on top of sweet treat trends is to stick with a classic. The cookie.

Twins Pammy and Mandy are satisfying Montrealers’ cookie cravings with their Twins’ Delights cookie delivery service ($19.99/dozen). We recently ordered the Melange ($23.99), a mix of 15 of the twins’ favourite flavours. We loved the deliciously chewy Chunks of Paradise, filled with chocolate chunks and gooey caramel, and the Pammy, a cinnamon-scented oatmeal cookie filled with plump raisins. But it was the classic Chocoholic that brought out our inner cookie monster.

Who says you can’t find the meaning of life in a cookie?

Inside Kukkii Wisdom Cookies ($5.99/10) you’ll discover inspirational quotes from soulful types like the Dalai Lama, John Lennon and Isabel Allende.  Better still, each dairy-free biscuit is made in Frelighsburg from certified organic ingredients like stone ground pastry flour, egg white, citrus fruit extract and sunflower oil. The Lemon-Lavender bickies promises to raise your yin while tangy Orange-Spice brings out a bit of yang.

We feel wiser already.

In your mind you spend Saturday afternoon happily baking oatmeal cookies with your kids. In your reality, you barely have time for lunch.

Sweetpea Baby Food’s new kids’ cookies are made the way you’d do them if you could: with whole grains like spelt and no dairy, eggs, or additives.

Healthful flavours like banana-pear and pumpkin spice mean there’s no guilt in doling them out by the handful. 

One for baby, three for mummy….
