Spring Fever
Spring Shortbread
Shamrocks
In Ireland, March 17 is an annual feast day celebrating the patron saint, St. Patrick. Here in the States, you don't have to be Irish to celebrate St. Patrick's Day - all you really need is a green shirt and a festive spirit! Live it up with our tasty shamrock shortbread cookies, available now through March 17.
Bunnies & Eggs
Ancient symbols of fertility marking the Spring Equinox, rabbits and eggs were first turned into tasty Easter treats in 19th century Germany. Achtung! You can nibble our shortbread bunnies and eggs Mar. 1 - Apr. 4.
Butterflies
Pretty pollinators and wildly interesting to nature geeks, butterflies also taste great in cookie form! Relive the memories of your childhood butterfly collection with our butterfly shortbread cookies, available April 5 - May 26.
You can find our spring shortbread cookies at local cafés, espresso stands, and fine grocery stores around Seattle, or you can pick up these tasty delights from our wholesale bakery in south Seattle. Give us a call to place a pick-up order!
Our shortbread cookies are handmade and nut-free with colors and flavors that come from nature.
Little Rae's Bakery - Seattle's Nut-Free Bakery
Message From The President
To improve our commitment to selling nut-safe products, Little Rae's Bakery has eliminated all peanuts and tree nuts from our products and converted our bakery to a nut-free facility. This means that there are no nuts in any of our products or ingredients and we do not allow them into the bakery.
Nut allergies affect 1 in 100 people in the United States.
The Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America estimates that peanut allergy is the most common cause of food-related death.
Peanut allergy among young children doubled between 1997 and 2002.
