A Maryland family tradition
Same family. Same recipe. Since 1881.
Otterbein's started as a local Maryland bakery with one simple idea: make a memorable thin-and-crispy cookie and keep sharing it with generations of families. More than 140 years later, that signature crunch remains at the heart of every bag.
What cookie fans are saying
I brought Otterbein’s cookies to a school event and had parents asking where they could buy them before the event was even over.
I stocked our office snack area with Otterbein’s and they were the first thing to disappear. Now the team expects them at every meeting.
The Ginger Cookies are in a category of their own—thin, crisp, and full of flavor. Once you try them, every other cookie feels too heavy.
