Gingernuts Cookies from Hawkens Gingerbread

Hawkens Gingernuts are by far the best tasting gingernuts we have ever encountered. They are spicy and fiery, as befits a gingernut cookie. The rich buttery fat, combined with a unique blend of spices and crystallized ginger bits, make these Nuts a cookie you'll quickly become obsessed with. The Gingernuts are packaged in an attractive cardboard box printed with a metallic copper color. On the side panel you will find the history of the Gingernut cookie, its origins and its popularity around the world, including the different names used for the cookie in different countries.

Alastair Hawken saved Grantham Gingerbread from disappearing into the history books when he learned that production of the cookies his town had always been famous for had ceased. Alastair began baking without a recipe, and after much experimentation, failure, refinement, and taste testing by focus groups, the product re-entered the market and became the success it is today. After a chance meeting with a fourth generation family member of William Eggleston, it was later discovered that the recipe was identical to the original! So Gingerbread friends not only in England can still enjoy the classic taste of England's oldest cookie recipe.
