It’s always great to bake hamantashen and share them with friends and family. But this isn’t a normal year, of course, and it may be harder to find the time to bake hamantashen because your kids are home doing remote school; or you’re worried about getting the packages out in time; or maybe you just want to share a little extra sweet cookie deliciousness with the people you love who are far away.
Whatever the reason, here are a bunch of wonderful bakeries from around the United States that will ship hamantashen for you. Bonus: Your kitchen will remain mess-free. Win, win.
Sunflower Bakery
This Maryland-based nonprofit bakery isn’t just baking up delicious kosher sweets shipped straight to your door: They are also doing important community work. Their mission is to provide training and job skills to adults 18+ who have learning differences. And since tzedekah is also an important part of Purim, you can give some hamantashen that have a little extra meaning. They have a huge selection of hamantashen flavors including cookie dough, coco-caramel, and even gluten-free hamantashen. To order visit their website.
Three Brothers Bakery
Three Brothers Bakery is an absolute gem, and the best hamantashen that I have personally ever tasted. Based in Houston, they are a family-run business dating back to before the Holocaust (read more about the family history here). You can order a package of traditional hamantashen or try their s’mores hamantashen. You might want to order some extra goodies while you are on their site. To order visit their website.
Breads Bakery
Each year Breads Bakery, based in New York City, comes up with brand-new flavors of hamantashen to keep us excited. And this year is no different: their apple pie hamantashen are a bite of heaven. They also have chocolate, poppy, halva, and pizza. And new this year will be their weekly rotating flavors, which include matcha, coconut-lime, and chai, just to name a few. You can order pick up or delivery if you’re in New York City, or you can have them delivered anywhere in the U.S. via Goldbelly. To order visit Goldbelly.
Ricki’s Cookies
Based in Memphis, this family bakery is beloved by locals. In fact, I have been hearing about Ricki’s Cookies for nearly 15 years from a friend who was raised in Memphis.
