In 2005 mother - daughter team Jennie Nass (daughter) and Vera Mirkovic (mom) made the decision to leave their very successful careers behind and bring their talents into the world of gourmet confections. These two ladies brought together business savvy, creativity, and an old fashioned work ethic to build a company that amongst other numerous achievements became the exclusive cookies for the 2009 Grammy and Academy Awards.
If you've never had the good fortune of tasting a cookie from Jennie and Vera's, then I can personally attest to the fact that each and every one of these handmade works of art are something that you truly have missed out on. The freshest ingredients that are used in every baked to order batch are evident when you first feast your eyes on these little slices of heaven.
Your first clue pertaining to the freshness of these cookies will be the strength of the delicious flavor scent that will immediately be evident. Your first bite will scream "first rate and superior quality"! The usage of the top quality fresh butter is released, followed quickly by the strong presence of for example, french or Italian jams, chocolate, marmalades, or cocoa. You might also detect imported spices and liquors from around the world, perhaps the dried sweet cherries from around the world, which happen to be a part of my all time favorite Jennie and Vera's cookie, the beyond delectable "Oatmeal Cherry"! Organic products are used whenever possible, and finally the vanilla used in the baking is none other than the finest and most expensive Madagascar.
These cookies don't stop there! The packaging is beautifully and elegantly done with a lovely all white gift box and your choice of a gorgeous black (my choice) or white ribbon tied around it. This has definitely made it to the very top of my Mother's Day gift list!
