A look at The Rounds, a Brooklyn-based small business making savory and sweet cookies inspired by Dutch buttery cheese cookies.

Even though it may seem like life is somewhat back to normal, it’s not for small businesses. It’s going to take a lot to recover from this devastating blow. The big guys will weather this storm, it’s the small ones we need to give some extra love to. So in an effort to encourage our readers to shop small, shop independent, and keep the economy going? we wanted to highlight a Brooklyn business: The Rounds. Not only do they make delicious and beautiful treats, but they implement mindful environmental practices in all parts of their business like actively trying to eliminate plastic from their production, to composting food waste, and paying for UPS carbon offset.

Inspired by founder Anna Harrington?s upbringing in Holland, Rounds are her unique take on Kaaskoekjes, a traditional buttery cheese cookie she enjoyed often with her mother in the Netherlands as they hosted and entertained throughout her childhood. And her Sweet Rounds tell color stories. Anna’s background in fashion and food styling inform her aesthetic, and many top names in fashion have taken notice.
