Raintree does not sell Lemon Chalet Cremes!

You may have heard that complaints were received about a Girl Scout Cookie (Lemon Chalet Cremes) due to poor taste quality. Customers need to know that girls in Raintree Council DO NOT sell that cookie. Our cookies are baked by ABC Interbake, whose lemon cookie is named Lemonades.

Here's a statement from our baker:
Several of our council partners have contacted us with questions about our Lemonades cookies in light of Little Brownie Bakers request that councils and consumers return certain lot codes of Lemon Chalet Crèmes. ABC Bakers would like to clarify that our Lemonades are not affected by the recent problems that Little Brownie has had with their Lemon Chalet Crèmes. We regularly test our cookies, and we have not detected any evidence of oil rancidity in our Lemonades. Given the inherent stability of the oils we have chosen for our formulations, we do not expect to experience any issues similar to those that Little Brownie is currently experiencing with their Lemon Chalet Crèmes.

Sincerely,
Mary Alice Callaway
Vice President, ABC Bakers
