From humble beginnings in a home kitchen in 2013, taking payment through an honesty box, Butterbing eventually became an Australia-wide phenomenon. Soon enough, Butterbing garnered a massive following of cookie fiends who simply could not get enough of its indulgent and highly addictive brownie-cookie sandwiches, which are lovingly stuffed with rich buttercreams, gooey fillings, crunchy bits, ganaches and jams.
After a temporary hiatus, fans of the OG brownie cookie can now breathe a sigh of the relief – Butterbing is officially back in Gold Coast cafes from this week, and is re-launching with a decadent list of flavours including salted caramel, vanilla cream, vanilla slice, choc mud cake, honey joy and wagon wheel. Conveniently, the Butterbing website features an interactive map so you can see the flavours that each cafe stocks – there’s also a Cookie Tracker that allows the cookie-obsessed to know when fresh batches have arrived at their local. Genius!
So far, Gold Coast folk can find Butterbing cookies at Double Barrel (both Mermaid and Benowa), Paradox Coffee Roasters in Surfers Paradise and Elk Espresso in Broadbeach. Go get ’em.
