Dare Ultimate Lemon Crème cookies

Dare Ultimate Lemon Crème cookies are a staple of the Canadian confectionery landscape, produced by a family-owned company with deep roots in North American food heritage. These premium crème-filled cookies are made using real lemons and contain no artificial colours or flavours, aligning with modern consumer preferences for cleaner label snacks.

Originally founded in 1889 in Kitchener, Ontario, the brand has remained a prominent figure in the Canadian food industry for over a century. Dare Foods continues to manufacture the vast majority of its products within Canada and the United States, specifically utilizing facilities in Ontario and Quebec to serve the North American market.

The brand is currently owned and operated by Dare Foods, which remains a private, family-owned entity. Unlike many other legacy food brands that have been acquired by global conglomerates, Dare has maintained its independence, allowing it to focus on its identity as a Canadian-made and family-managed business. This localized control ensures that the products, including the Ultimate cookie line, maintain their traditional quality and regional manufacturing focus.
