Press Release Summary: The Pink and White Circus Animal Cookies we know and love have been abandoned.
Press Release Body: After 94 years of wonderful cookie making and baking, Mother's, the bakers of Original Circus Animals cookies, was shuttered last Friday. The wonderful and tasty Pink and White Circus Animal cookies with the sprinkles on top, will no longer be made in the Oakland, CA plant, workers were told late Friday night. The Current owner of Mother's Cookies, Catterton Partners, a private equity firm in Greenwich, Conn., told workers last Friday: "[we]could not keep competing with the cookie monsters" and retain its flagship location in Oakland, CA." The original founder of Mother's, who started the bakery 92 years ago in Oakland; CA was a former newspaper peddler. When he hired his first employee, who he later married, the company took off when the word got out about how wonderful his cookies tasted. In a statement released by Catterton: "[we] took a number of actions to remedy" the company's financial crisis, "but these actions were not sufficient to overcome the losses and return Mother's Cake & Cookie Co.... to profitability." Mother's Cookies employees, about 225 of them, found out Friday that their jobs were crumbling when management announced that baking was being transferred to other plants. An employee of the plant for 25 years told reporters: "People were crying, people were in pain,'' about the closing of the plant and losing their jobs with out any prior notice from the current owners. When word of the abandonment of the famous animal cookie got out, store shelves have been emptied by loyal consumers of the delightful and delicious cookie. After much research we have located a short video about the cookies and possibly where you can still obtain a bag or two of the circus cookie: www.discovermoneysecrets.com/circus.htm
