A sweet bit of history

December 18, 2010

In 1954, Lue Helen Green, a.k.a., Mama Green, spent her free time baking wonderful desserts. Throughout the years she perfected her recipes, and only when those recipes had reached perfection, Mama Green shared her delicious desserts at family parties, church events, and throughout her hometown, Milwaukee. In time, she passed the magical recipes down to generations of bakers in her family.

Today, her great granddaughter, Shatoia Starks, brings those popular recipes to you as Mama Green’s Gourmet Goodies. From childhood, Shatoia has fond memories of her great-grandmother’s house and the delicious aroma that came from Mama Green baking wonderful desserts. The family has always believed that “Nothing says lovin’ like goodies from Mama Green’s oven.”

Whole Foods Market shoppers can enjoy the great taste of Mama Green’s Gourmet Goodies four delicious cookie flavors, Crunch Red Velvet, Chunky Oatmeal Peanut Butter Raisin, Chewy Carrot Spice, and Rich and Creamy German Chocolate, prepared using heirloom family recipes just in time for the holiday season.

These delectable cookies can be found in the Whole Foods Market bakery area at the amazingly low price of $10.99 per box. Mama Green’s Gourmet Goodies are packaged in a beautifully designed, handmade box, a replica of Mama Green’s own loving home.

This Saturday, customers of the Whole Foods Market in Milwaukee, located 2305 N. Prospect Ave. beginning at 10:00 am.
