Love at First Bite: Craig’s Cookies Drops the Sweetest Pride Mix of the Year

·

June is officially Pride Month, and while there’s no shortage of ways to celebrate, Craig’s Cookies might just have the most joyful (and delicious) take of them all. Known for their nostalgia-packed treats and unapologetically inclusive ethos, the beloved Toronto-born, queer-owned bakery is rolling out their annual Pride Mix — a bold cookie lineup that’s as colourful as it is crave-worthy.

It’s a limited-edition drop that brings together playful flavours, sentimental classics, and a healthy dose of rainbow sparkle — because at Craig’s Cookies, Pride is always baked in.

The Cookie Collection That Tastes Like Pride

This year’s Pride Mix features six standouts, each with its own personality and sweet twist. Whether you’re into chewy, gooey, or straight-up whimsical, there’s a cookie here that’ll hit the spot.

  • Pride – Dubbed “the Queerest cookie in Toronto,” this signature flavour represents everything Craig’s Cookies stands for — bold, original, and full of heart. It’s not just a cookie, it’s a love letter to community.
  • Krispee & Proud – A Rainbow Rice Krispie treat tucked into a chocolate chip cookie. Childhood nostalgia meets full-grown flavour in this ultra chewy, crispy combo.
  • Cotton Candy – This dreamy pick blends pink and blue cotton candy dough with creamy white chocolate chips. Think of it as dessert’s answer to a summer sky.
  • Rainbow Flag – A classic chocolate chip base gets a sour twist with rainbow belt candies for a tangy-sweet punch. Chewy, colourful, and made to stand out.
  • Pride Brownie – Rich, fudgy brownie dough layered with rainbow sprinkles and Pride Bits — a decadent choice that doesn’t hold back on texture or taste.
  • Confetti Queen – A staple for good reason. This returning fan-favourite is studded with chocolate buttons and extra glitter, celebrating maximalism in cookie form.

Where to Get It (and How to Share the Love)

The Pride Mix is available now through June 30 and can be ordered individually, by the half dozen, or by the dozen — perfect for gifting, treating yourself, or sharing at your next Pride picnic.

You can pick up in person at any Craig’s Cookies location across Canada, or get them delivered straight to your door (national shipping available). As always, every order comes in the iconic pink box, sealed with a rainbow heart — a small but meaningful reminder that at Craig’s, identity and celebration are always front and centre.

A Sweet Lineup of Merch, Too

This year, Craig’s Cookies is also dropping a limited-run Pride merch collection that goes beyond the cookie box. The collection includes a cheeky “EAT ME.” tank top and tee, plus hats, socks, mugs, tote bags, and stickers — all designed with Craig’s signature wit and charm.

Prices range from $11 to $30, and items will be available both in-store and online for pre-order. Whether you’re layering it up for the parade or gifting it to your favourite cookie-lover, it’s a way to wear your support — and your sweet tooth — proudly.
