I am thrilled to introduce the scrumptious Marinette shortbread cookies in their colorful themed boxes, just in time for the holiday season!
These heart-shaped biscuits bavards (chatty cookies) come with a different bunch of personalized messages in French for each of the nine themes we have selected, to delight your favorite people and celebrate special occasions joyfully and thoughtfully.
Based in Pompey, near Nancy in Lorraine, Marinette was founded by two young women friends, Cyrielle and Maud, in 2018. They named their company in memory of Cyrielle's mother.
Enjoy the flavors. Take good care of yourself.
