Etobicoke, Canada Mary Macleod's Shortbread Full time

Mary Macleod opened her artisan shortbread business over 40 years ago (1981), as the first “shortbread only” bakery in Canada. Her success was assured when she began baking and selling her signature Chocolate Crunch shortbread cookies to the happy customers lined up outside her small shop in the heart of Toronto. Then as now, customers recognized the commitment to excellence and quality baked into every shortbread. At the heart of our renowned quality has always been Mary’s unwavering belief that high quality shortbread must be handmade in small batches using only the finest ingredients and following strict processes and our signature recipes. Our commitment to quality is underlined by our strong quality assurance and safety program which is proven by our AA rating under the BRCGS standard - one of the most demanding and best known in the food manufacturing world. Our success in making quality product is directly due to the team at MMS. Each team member contributes to, and maintains our quality program.
