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? 

Email us your favorite cookie and WHY and the Deer fan with the best answer will get a box of their favorite cookies for FREE!!!! (click here to email us your replies).

Roses are Red
Violets are Blue
Our cookies are too good to be true!

I started working here at Dancing Deer in November as a customer service representative (who happens to like blogging). Since November, I have tried to find a better cookie or brownie - to no avail. I have had cookies from all over the world and to this date Dancing Deer has won that spot in my heart for sweets. The brownies are gooey like they just came out of the oven; the cookies are chewy like a cookie should be. I truly love our cookies and I don’t know how most people share them because I don’t or won’t.

Move over roses, you’ve been replaced with our decadent Valentine’s Brownie & Cookie Tower. Our tower is the perfect gift for kids away at college, or friends and of course that special someone to show them you care. It showcases our chewy yummy cookies with our perfect gooey brownies and our perfect crisp shortbread cookies. Bon Apetit! 

…. Or at least that’s what I hear. I love giving brownies to loved ones. First off - our Brownie Hearts are the size of my head and nothing says love like a brownie the size of a 1st grader, right? Right. Oh, and by the way my head is quite large, but more so I was going for the effect.

So now’s the time to get your list together for Valentines Day, show the people closest and furthest away that you care with Dancing Deer’s gourmet gifts. So here it is - we have hand-decorated L-O-V-E Letter Cookies for the special someone (me or significant other), humongous brownies for your kids & delightfully crunchy vanilla butter shortbread hearts for your friends to let them know your love is like a dancing deer cookie, you don’t want to share it’s soooo good.

So, friends, call us up and send some lovin!

You never outgrow snack time. And at Dancing Deer, we’re surrounded by the yummy aromas of brownies, cakes, cookies baking - it’s tempting to spend all our time on snack time.  What memories does snack time bring to life for you?

We ask our Deers on Twitter to share a few memories. Here’s what they wrote.

@talkingwithtami: At least once a week, I meet with my son for lunch at his school. This past monday was his birthday, I went to school and we had lunch with him and some snacks. The kids were pointing saying yes that’s his mom she is on tv. That was a great memory of snacktime with my son plus the kids laughed and so did he!

@tubgoddess: snacktime - ants on a log (celery w/ peanut butter and raisins) or graham crackers with peanut butter! apples and peanut butter…

This holiday there’s plenty of time for snack time. May we recommend that one of your snacks include a Two-Tier Holiday Cookie Tower. 

These bite size shortbread cookies are in 8 yummy flavors and shapes.
Happy Holidays, from Dancing Deer Baking Company!
