A huge thank you to the Shortbread Company for baking up the most delicious lemon shortbread cookies to help us mark this milestone. Because nothing says 10 years of love and support quite like cookies and cuddles. 💕

To celebrate 10 amazing years, Seth has been personally (and enthusiastically) handing out lemon shortbread cookies to thank all of YOU—our wonderful clients—for your support over the years. 💛 He takes his job very seriously… though we can’t confirm how many cookies may have “gone missing” in the process.

Stop by, grab a cookie, and maybe a snuggle from Seth (while supplies last… on both counts 😅).

A huge thank you to and all the other volunteers for all of your hard work yet again at this years Cobourg Waterfront Festival!
💛
The Shortbread Company has been involved with this show for 13 years and each one has been amazing! It really is the most wonderful time of year!
💛
Having said that, we have decided to end our run with the show and this season was our last.
💛
So grateful for all of our customers for keeping us laughing, smiling and on our toes all these years-we are ready to enjoy our July long weekends on a deck chair with a cookie or two.
💛
Thank you to everyone again and see you next year…as a customer!
