Following the release of its new English Fudge Collection, Trader Joe's has also added a new British Shortbread Cookie Collection to its holiday product selection.
The British are known for going all out for the festive season and one of their standout holiday dishes is shortbread. To perfectly capture the delicious taste of British shortbread, Trader Joe's worked with a bakery in Derbyshire, U.K., which is famous for producing high-end sweets. For Trader Joe's holiday lineup, the bakery developed a trio of delicious shortbread cookies. There's the Coffee cookie, which contains visible flecks of ground coffee, the Cocoa cookie studded with bits of meringue, and the English Toffee cookie, which features crunchy toffee pieces throughout.
Best of all, Trader Joe's British Shortbread Cookie Collection comes in a charming blue box that makes it perfect for a last-minute hosting gift,
