I Scream, You Scream, We All Scream for Free Cookies

Is your hair painted like a unicorn? Do you have a beard that would rival Simba’s in the Lion King? Does your granny have the most awesome cat glasses and flair for style? Does your child run around as Spiderman in a tutu? Is your best friend into cosplay?

Today, we’re kicking off our “Show Us Your Character” contest. It’s a two week-long photo competition that runs from June 27, 2019 to July 11, 2019. Our goal? We want to see the faces and personalities of Little Rae’s cookie lovers everywhere. Our customers are what keep our bakery going day after day, year after year. Each of you is unique — and we want to see that!

Need more convincing? After the contest is over, we’ll send a free box of our I Scream cookies to our top four contestants.
