OUR STORYABOVE AND BEYOND CHOCOLATE CHIP
Our signature Chocolate Crunch cookie took eighteen months to perfect, and it only takes one bite to love.
SHOP FLAVOURSGive in to Gluten Freedom
Sure, we respect tradition. But we also challenge it by creating gluten-free shortbread so good, it rivals our original recipes.
Shop gluten-freeAlways bake happy & Always use Butter
Shortbread is in our DNA. Also, real creamery butter. And pure, premium ingredients. And a borderline obsession with doing things right. Mary’s legacy started back in 1981, and we’re here and happy to keep it going strong one small-batch cookie at a time.
What's InsideBut don't take our word for it…
from 790 reviewsAbsolutely delicious. Everyone I shared with enjoyed the biscuits thoroughly. I first bought Mary McLeod's shortbread cookies at SAY TEA on Bloor Street in Toronto's Bloor West Village when we lived there in the late 80s/early 90s. Her biscuits were a big treat with tea! They still are today.
Like everything about the taste, however the price is high - which I understand because of the high cost of manual labour and special packaging. Great as gifts.
It’s difficult to find things made in Canada to bring as gifts overseas but these cookies are the best. Packaging is nice too.
We have enjoyed Mary McLeod's shortbread since the late 1980s, purchasing them from SAY TEA in the High Park area of Toronto. It's great to buy a quality product online to share with friends. Kind thanks for your exceptional customer service.
It is a Christmas gift and therefore I have not used it yet and cannot provide any review thank you
Never disappoints. Soooooo delicious
The dutch chocolate is the best flavour and it is perfect gifts to give out for friends and family oversea!
Purchased as a surprise gift for friends who we know enjoy Mary Macleod's shortbread. They were thrilled to receive the tin of goodies!
The tin makes a great gift for any occasion, and it's the kind of treat most people wouldn't usually buy for themselves.
I am unable to review those cookies at this time as they are all gifts for Christmas but they look great and the service I got from the office was great that’s all I can offer at this time thank you
Love the cookies. The tins a great size for giving and keeping. Gluten free also a big winner with my Celiac granddaughter
Moist & real chocolate taste. Not too sweet.
Box is ornate, held up during shipping. Smiles all around when gifted!
Both cookie jars were a hit and well received by the two parties they were given to. Would do it again if situation warrants it.
We’ve had these mini cookies last Christmas and thoroughly enjoyed them. Two weeks ago they were on sale, so we bought twice as many. However they probably won’t last twice as long as they are delicious.
Feeling Gifty?
Mary used to give a cookie to every customer who came into her bakeshop. Put the people you love on #MacleodNine with tins, jars and other elegant gifts.
Gifts & CollectionsWe have strong feelings about milk and cookies. Wine also works.
