San Francisco Business Times
Circus animal lovers rejoice: Mother’s cookies are back.
Mother’s Cookies, known for those pink and white circus animal cookies and iced oatmeal treats, closed its Oakland operation in 2006 and in 2008 ceased operations entirely, to the dismay of many loyal fans developed over its 74-year history.
Kellogg Co. (NYSE: K) purchased the trademarks and original recipes in December 2008, and has begun to re-stock grocery shelves in the Western U.S. with the Mother’s brand. In addition to the circus animals and iced oatmeal cookie, Kellogg will also bring back taffy, vanilla crème and English tea cookies, among others.
