DAVE'S GOURMET, INC.
Oatmeal Cookie Butter
KNOWN FOR HIS COMPANY'S PASTA SAUCES AND HOT SAUCES, Dave
Hirschkop struck out in a new direction earlier this year when he introduced
Dave's Gourmet's Oatmeal Cookie Butter. Hirschkop says the product
category interested him, and he wanted to create an all-natural cookie butter
that appealed specifically to the U.S.
"There are several flavors that seemed right, but the first was oatmeal
cookie," he explains. "Oatmeal is a healthy, delicious breakfast that many
Americans enjoy, and oatmeal cookies are a treat that is very popular."
The spread is made with wholesome, all-natural ingredients and can
be slathered on toast, apple slices, cupcakes, and many other foods. The
oatmeal cookie butter is the first of three planned cookie butters from Dave's
Gourmet; the others—including another American-inspired variety, apple
pie—are slated to become available before the end of the year. Suggested
retail price: $5.49/16.5 ounces. Contact: Dave Hirschkop; 415.401.9100;
