The Autumn Shortbread from Cookies United is a shortbread cookie topped with orange sugar, a chocolatey drizzle, and harvest sprinkles, packed in a 5 lb bulk box at about 22 cookies per pound. It comes finished and ready to serve. We stock it in bulk and wholesale for bakeries, delis, caterers, grocery bakery counters, and foodservice.


The orange sugar and harvest colors put this one squarely on the fall table, from the first week of school through Thanksgiving.


The Shortbread Base

Shortbread gets its character from a lot of fat and not much else. That keeps the dough tender instead of chewy and gives you the dense, sandy crumble that a sugar cookie or a soft cookie never quite has. It also makes a solid little cookie, which matters here, because there is a lot going on top.


These run about 22 to the pound, so each one is a good three quarters of an ounce and a case comes out around 110 cookies. A cookie this size has the room to carry a three-part finish without looking crowded.


A Three-Part Finish

Most decorated cookies get one thing done to them. This one gets three, and each layer pulls its own weight.


The orange sugar sets the color and gives the surface a bit of sparkle and crunch. The chocolatey drizzle runs across the top for a second flavor and a darker line against the orange. Then the harvest sprinkles go on to finish it, and that mix of color is what makes it read as a proper bakery cookie rather than something plain with sugar shaken over it.



Where It Fits

It works anywhere the season shows up: fall festivals, Halloween and Thanksgiving spreads, harvest events, or just a bakery case that needs to look like October. And a rich shortbread was made for a hot drink, so it sits well next to coffee and cider service.


Buying it done also takes three decorating steps off your plate during the busy fall stretch. Sugaring, drizzling, and sprinkling are each their own job by hand, and here they are already handled.


Applications

  • Fall and autumn cookie platters
  • Halloween and Thanksgiving dessert spreads
  • Harvest festivals and fall community events
  • Bakery and deli autumn cases
  • Coffee shop and cafe seasonal counters
  • Catering and fall buffet service
  • Grocery bakery seasonal departments
  • Grab-and-go autumn retail packaging
  • Office and workplace fall events
  • Volume and institutional foodservice

Allergen Information

Contains Wheat, Soy, Egg, and Milk. Processed in a plant that also processes peanuts, tree nuts, and sesame. Contains bioengineered food ingredients.


Kosher Certification

Certified Kosher Dairy.


Storage and Handling

Store dry at room temperature on a cool shelf. The chocolatey drizzle is heat sensitive, so keep the case away from ovens, proof boxes, and warm delivery areas, and mind the temperature on early-fall orders while the weather is still warm.


Keep the box closed between uses. Shortbread has enough fat in it to soften in a warm room and lose its snap, and a cool dry shelf keeps the drizzle firm and the sugar sharp.


Bulk and Wholesale Options

Comes in a 5 lb bulk box, about 22 cookies per pound. Available in bulk and wholesale for bakeries, caterers, grocery counters, and anyone moving seasonal cookie volume. Quantity pricing available.


Sourcing and Production

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the harvest sprinkles on the Autumn Shortbread?
The harvest sprinkles on the Autumn Shortbread are a mix of warm fall colors, usually oranges, browns, and golds, scattered across the top of the cookie. They go on as the last of the three layers, over the orange sugar and the chocolatey drizzle.
Does the chocolatey drizzle on the Autumn Shortbread taste like real chocolate?
The drizzle on the Autumn Shortbread is a chocolatey coating rather than pure chocolate, which is what you want on a cookie meant to sit in a case and travel in a box. It gives you the chocolate flavor and a darker stripe against the orange without softening the way real chocolate does in warm weather.
Will the Autumn Shortbread hold up in shipping without breaking?
The Autumn Shortbread travels well because shortbread is dense and solid rather than thin and brittle. The three toppings are set onto the surface rather than layered up in a fragile way, so the cookies come through a bulk box in good shape.
What drinks go well with the Autumn Shortbread?
The Autumn Shortbread is a natural next to coffee and hot apple cider, both of which suit its rich, buttery base and its fall styling. Black tea and chai work too, since the warm spice in those drinks plays off the autumn feel of the cookie.
