Telegram Cookies pouch — French shortbread cookies made with flour, salted butter, and sugar

Born in France

Made in Massachusetts

Georges Duverger, founder of Telegram Cookies

It started small. One winter, my wife, our children, and I baked butter cookies in our kitchen. We pressed little messages into them and sent them to friends by mail. They liked the idea, but they remembered the taste.

I grew up in France, where butter cookies melt in your mouth and stay in your mind. That same taste found a home here. When our kitchen could no longer keep up, we moved to a small bakery in Massachusetts.

Now we make French shortbread cookies the way they should be made, with pure butter and real cane sugar. Nothing extra. Nothing rushed.

I hope they bring a bit of joy to your table, as they have to ours.
