Byrds Cookie Company Georgia Peach Cookies in a 6 oz. tin. Southern as a fresh Georgia Peach. These delicate, bite-size cookies are reminiscent of the tangy goodness of a tree-ripened peach and the rich flavor of sweet cream, with just enough zing to keep you coming back for more. A quintessential Southern dessert, the rich taste of peaches has long been enjoyed at many a picnic, dinner and social gatherings. Bursting with this same, fresh peach flavor, our award-wining cookies capture the tart-but-sweet taste and pleasing crunch of this much-loved delicacy.

  • Approximately 42 cookies per tin.
  • 6 oz.

In 1924, Ben T. Byrd, Sr. began baking small batches of cookies from his bakery in Savannah, Georgia, packing them in wooden crates, and personally delivering them to neighborhood markets in his Model T Ford. The cookies were soon christened “Byrd’s Famous Cookies” and steadily gained popularity not only locally, but also among visitors who discovered the delicious confections while visiting Savannah. It was Byrd’s son, BT Byrd, Jr., who would later go by Cookie Byrd, who had the idea of packing these bite sized confections in tins, so that they would travel better. This idea, paired with his popularizing of the Benne Wafer and the Benne Seed, took the company to a new level. By making these delicious treats transportable, Byrd became a gourmet food company, able to ship cookies to other markets.

Now you can get these great tasting cookies here on Hilton Head.
