Rustic Bakery Handmade Cookies, Meyer Lemon Shortbread, 4 oz

Not very lemony tasting or smelling.

Love these short bread cookies. Reminds me of the ones my mother and grandmother made.

These cookies are delicious. To bad they’re so expensive.

I picked up a box of these for a dinner party dessert. I was thinking it was about the size of a box of Girl Scout cookies (15-30 cookies). The box is mostly packaging. The picture on the box shows 12 cookies, but in the box is 10. The cookies were not bad, but not great. I wished I had just bought a box of Walkers.

I have to start with the price, $22 for 10 small, thin cookies. To put that into perspective, Fresh Market sells them for $5.50 and Rustic Bakery's on-line store sells them for $6.00. If you still insist, please respond to this review, we can make a deal.Then there's the taste. If you associate shortbread with buttery, dismiss that thought. They're a slight touch buttery coupled with a mega dollop of tart. It says Meyer Lemons. We use Meyer Lemons, they don't taste like Meyer Lemons. I'm not sure they taste of lemons as much as artificial flavoring. But it does not say flavoring in the ingredients. I figure since that's all we recognize in food, natural tasting products don't sell.Not recommended.

I order these for my mom in her assisted living place. She loves them!

I'm surprised by the other reviews because I purchased these for my elderly mom and neither of us could taste even a hint of lemon. They don't even have a nice buttery taste. Very disappointed.

Delicious, just the right amount of sweetness, lemon, and salt.
