Founded in March, 2005 by Sandra and
Michael Salazar, Outrageous Shortbreads is a subsidiary of
Outrageous Offerings, LLC a small, family-owned bakery specializing
in gourmet shortbreads.
All varieties are hand-made in small batches in the tradition of
true artisans.
Trained as marine biologists, we have always had a passion for food
and wine. This passion lead to specialty catering that focused on
pairing wine with each element of a meal.
We first developed our savory shortbread because we wanted a
"different" appetizer, and we love the texture and gustatory
sensation characteristic of shortbread.
Spurred on by numerous requests for our flagship variety,
Blue
Cheese Walnut, we built a state-certified bakery at our
residence and now dedicate our efforts to producing unique and
exciting shortbread to pair with wine, cheese, fruits, and desserts.
Our savory shortbreads fit the traditional definition of a very
rich, thick short cookie --appetizing to the taste or smell, and not
sweet. To eliminate confusion with traditional "sweet" shortbread
cookies, we emphasize the savory nature of our Outrageous
Shortbreads and their ability to pair with a wide range of foods and
beverages; we refer to them as solely as "shortbread".
They are unique and outrageous because not even the largest
companies can offer so many varieties or our personal, baker's
touch. They are truly "Something different ... something more!"

We use only the freshest ingredients
such as sweet cream butter, cheeses, nuts, and seasonings.
Each batch is hand-made and
hand-packed by us in the traditional artisan manner.
