This week on Go Dairy Free and One Frugal Foodie we are giving away a sampler package of Organic Cookies from HomeFree Treats. Formerly known as Gak's Snacks, HomeFree produces cookies and coffee cakes that are made from organic ingredients in a facility that is certified vegan and dedicated nut-free, peanut-free, dairy-free, and egg-free. But most importantly, their sweets taste awesome (trust me, several of us at Go Dairy Free have tried and loved every flavor; just ask Sarah and Sarena)! No one will feel "left out" when they bite into one of HomeFree's big, soft cookies or reach for a handful of their cookie minis. Okay, I'm getting hungry, let's get back to the giveaway ...
Want to enter to win?! Leave a comment on the giveaway post on One Frugal Foodie, and let us know what flavor of cookie you think HomeFree should come out with next ... or ... just tell me why you want to win these cookies!
About HomeFree Treats
