The Rounds: Round Two on Kaaskoekjes Dutch Treats

The Rounds: Round Two on Kaaskoekjes Dutch Treats

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. Loeffler Randall, Aerin Lauder, Rachel Comey, Tory Burch and Miu Miu are fans of The Rounds.

Now that celebrations are returning, they are the perfect sophisticated, design-forward and delicious food gift to send to clients, friends, family, or to bring your gracious holiday host… made to order in Brooklyn, New York. They make the most simple gathering feel a bit elevated and they slip with ease into your more formal events, bringing people together, in creating times to be remembered – during gatherings that embrace cultures and ideas and the joy that can be found in eating something yummy.

And you are not only giving to your host, you are giving back, too. Anna has partnered with multiple charitable organizations focused on food insecurity, anti-hate and social justice, including West Brooklyn Waterfront Mutual Aid, Heart of Dinner, and Kidizenship. Most recently, she participated in a raffle which raised $28,500 benefiting Women for Afghan Women.
