Hey there cookie lovers! Are you ready for the most delicious and meaningful treat of the year? Check out Maya’s Cookies’ 2023 Black History Month Collection! This year, Maya’s Cookies is paying homage to the arts and honoring the incredible contributions of Black women in literary arts, dance, the music industry, and beyond. Each cookie tells the stories of these changemakers and features ingredients from fellow Black-owned, woman-owned small businesses that we all love.
The Prodigy
Indulge in The Prodigy, a graceful cookie inspired by Misty Copeland, her mentor Raven Wilkinson, and all the trailblazing Black women making history in ballet and the dance arts. This one sparkles with flavors of bubbly champagne, fresh strawberries, and dazzling sparkle sugar. And the best part? The Prodigy features Sparkling Rosé from the Black-owned, woman-owned brand Stuyvesant Champagne.
