The Official Dancing Deer Baking Co. Blog

It’s been a long winter, but spring has finally come! The grass is green again, birds are chirping, and Easter will be here before we know it. Rabbits and eggs, both ancient symbols of fertility, have been associated with Easter since the Middle Ages, and the idea came to America centuries ago with Pennsylvania Dutch immigrants. Ever since, the Easter Bunny has been delivering colored eggs and sweet treats to us every spring. This year, why not add some cookies to the basket? Our delicious Easter Cookie Collection includes crunchy, all-natural vanilla cookies shaped like happy chicks, spring daisies, and striped eggs, and decorated in cheerful spring colors. We guarantee these yummy treats won’t stay hidden for long!

Growing up in Boston, it would be hard to avoid the Red Sox (if for some strange reason you wanted to).  Fenway Park, Kenmore Square, the Green Monster, the Citgo sign…they’re all city landmarks.  For Father’s Day, we found a way to celebrate baseball-loving Dads, summer and the Sox with our Limited Edition Fenway Park Gift Tower.  The tower includes a Fenway Park replica tin filled with yummy, vanilla shortbread cookies that are shaped like baseballs!  They’re not regulation size baseballs, but they are tasty (IR)regardless. 

Once we featured Fenway, we couldn’t help but feature Yankee Stadium for our New York, New Jersey and (select) Connecticut residents.  You will never find me rooting for the Bronx Bombers, but baseball season would definitely lose most of its excitement without those anticipated Sox/Yankees games.

And if you find yourself on neither side of the rivalry, but still love our national pastime, celebrate with the Baseball National Hall of Fame Gift Tower.  Each tower includes traditional, gourmet vanilla baseball cookies and chocolate chunk brownies – you really can’t miss with that combination.

Peanuts and Cracker Jacks are great, but why not do something different for Dad this baseball season?  Check out all three baseball gift towers on our website: http://www.dancingdeer.com/baseball-gifts.

At Dancing Deer, we love our holidays.  We get to bake decorative cookies for the season and we always make time for a celebration in the bakery with all the Deer.  St Patrick’s Day is next on the calendar – and you know what they say, “Everyone’s Irish on St Patrick’s Day!”  So, send some Lucky Clover Cookies to all of your IRISH friends and if you enjoy arts and crafts, click here to learn how to make an Origami 4-leaf clover (don’t worry, I tried it myself to rate the difficulty – I give it a rating of easy to medium difficulty level)

Friday, how we wait for you all week!  Now it’s time cool off and warm up for the weekend. So the weather is cold, and I am ready to snuggle up with latte and my favorite cookies, Sugar Cane Lime. Do you have a favorite Friday cookie?
