Mother-daughter duo brings allergen-friendly cookies to local markets

Boston Globe15-04-2025
Customer favorites include Chocolate Chip, Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip, and Molasses Ginger. (Don't skip over the Double Dark Chocolate cookies.) Her Triple Chocolate Fudge Brownie is incredibly rich and fudgy, and so satisfying that many customers cut the large square into small pieces and freeze them, perfect for when occasional (or more frequent) chocolate cravings strike. Silvia says she was particularly motivated to bake allergen-friendly sweets for children. 'I wanted kids to have a chocolate chip cookie that was safe to eat.' Many adults will be happy, too.

Know a cookie monster with food allergies? They can safely gobble these goodies.

The semisoft one-bite treats are made with a blend of almond flour, coconut flour, real fruit, dark chocolate, maple syrup for sweetness, and other good ingredients. They come in four flavors meant to evoke classic treats: Lemon Blueberry aims to taste like a blueberry muffin; Chocolate Chip channels a Chips Ahoy; Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip recalls a Reese's; and Cookies & Creme mimics an Oreo. To avoid cross-contamination, the peanut butter variety is produced separately from the others, Berger says. As for the package that produces a laugh, each bag features an illustration of Yogi Bear in various yoga poses. One 4.5-ounce pouch is $7.99; three pouches, $20 to $23 .

Princess Sofia Missed a Dazzling Tiara Moment After Debuting Baby Princess Ines at Royal Event

State banquets are always a highlight on the royal calendar, filled with pomp, ceremony, elaborate decor and, of course, tiaras. The Swedish royal family owns quite the collection of jewels, and they brought out the bling for a state banquet in honor of an Icelandic state visit on Tuesday, May 6. While King Carl XVI Gustaf, Queen Silvia, Crown Princess Victoria, Prince Daniel, Prince Carl Philip, Princess Madeleine and her husband, Chris O'Neill, attended the glittering event, Princess Sofia was notably absent. Although 40-year-old Sofia, who is married to Prince Carl Philip, recently brought her three-month-old daughter, Princess Ines, for her first balcony appearance on April 30, she stayed home from the banquet. The Swedish princess gave birth to baby Ines on Feb. 7 and therefore is officially on maternity leave, but she did step out on the palace balcony last month as it was her father-in-law the king's birthday. Along with baby Ines, Princess Sofia and Prince Carl Philip are the parents of three boys: Prince Alexander, 9, Prince Gabriel, 7, and 4-year-old Prince Julian. Sofia might have skipped this week's state banquet, but her mother-in-law and sisters-in-law dazzled in heirloom family jewelry—and even sneakers—at the event. Queen Silvia kept it comfy in white trainers as she recovered from a foot surgery, pairing her sneakers with a sparkly pink gown and matching wrap. And although her footwear might have been sensible, she went big with her jewels. The Swedish queen wore a diamond tiara known as Queen Sofia's tiara, adding a massive pink topaz and diamond necklace and matching earrings. As for Crown Princess Victoria, she repeated a white gown covered in colorful floral appliqués, adding the Swedish Aquamarine Kokoshnik tiara to her look. Meanwhile, Princess Madeleine—who wore a strapless, berry-hued gown—debuted a special family diadem, wearing the King Edward VII Ruby Tiara. Per The Court Jeweller, Madeleine is the only modern royal to have worn the 120-year-old piece other than Queen Silvia.
