The Pumpkin Linzer Tarts from Cookies United are two vanilla cookies sandwiched around a pumpkin filling and dusted with powdered sugar, packed in a 5 lb bulk box at about 36 cookies per pound. They come finished and ready to serve. We stock them in bulk and wholesale for bakeries, delis, caterers, grocery bakery counters, and foodservice.


This is the sandwiched, filled piece for fall, and it is the only one built on real pumpkin. On a case of single cookies, a filled linzer is the piece that looks like it came out of a scratch bakery.


What a Linzer Is

A linzer is a sandwich cookie: two cookies with filling between them, and a cut-out window in the top one so the filling shows through the powdered sugar. It takes its name and its style from the Linzer torte, the old Austrian pastry it shrinks down from.


That construction is what sets it apart from every single cookie on a tray. It has a top, a filling, and a bottom, so it eats richer and reads fancier than a flat cookie with something on the surface.


Real Pumpkin, Not Just Spice

Plenty of fall products get their pumpkin from cinnamon and nutmeg alone. This one has actual pumpkin puree in the filling, with the spice there to back it up rather than stand in for it.


That is the difference between tasting like the season and tasting like pumpkin. The puree brings the real vegetable flavor and body to the filling, and the cinnamon and nutmeg sit behind it the way they do in a pumpkin pie.


The Powdered Sugar Finish

The tops are dusted with powdered sugar, which is the classic linzer look. Against the pale cookie the sugar reads as a light snow, and where the window is cut the deeper pumpkin color shows through the dusting.


The finish does flavor work as well as looks. A little powdered sugar on top sweetens the first bite before you reach the spiced pumpkin in the middle.


Where It Fits

A filled pumpkin cookie is a fall centerpiece. It anchors an autumn case, sits at the front of a Thanksgiving dessert table, and gives a mixed tray the one piece that is sandwiched and filled rather than flat and topped.


It is also the cookie that answers the pumpkin question every fall. Customers come in looking for pumpkin from September on, and this delivers it in a format that feels more special than a muffin or a plain spiced cookie.


Applications

  • Fall and harvest cookie platters
  • Thanksgiving dessert tables
  • Pumpkin-season bakery case features
  • Mixed assortments needing a filled or sandwiched piece
  • Coffee shop and cafe seasonal counters
  • Catering and buffet dessert spreads
  • Grocery bakery seasonal departments
  • Grab-and-go autumn retail packaging

Allergen Information

Contains Wheat, Egg, Soy, and Milk. Processed in a plant that also processes peanuts, tree nuts, and sesame. Contains bioengineered food ingredients.


Kosher Certification

Certified Kosher Dairy.


Storage and Handling

Store dry at room temperature. The pumpkin filling is built to hold on the shelf rather than needing refrigeration, so a cool dry shelf is all it asks for.


Keep the box closed between uses. Powdered sugar takes on moisture from humid air and can go from a clean dusting to a damp, spotty look, so dry storage keeps the tops looking the way they should.


Bulk and Wholesale Options

Comes in a 5 lb bulk box, about 36 cookies per pound. Available in bulk and wholesale for bakeries, caterers, grocery counters, and anyone moving seasonal cookie volume. Quantity pricing available.


Sourcing and Production

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a linzer cookie and a regular sandwich cookie?
A linzer cookie has a cut-out window in the top cookie, so the filling shows through a dusting of powdered sugar, while a plain sandwich cookie has two solid halves that hide the filling completely. The linzer style comes from the Austrian Linzer torte and is traditionally the more decorative of the two.
Do the Pumpkin Linzer Tarts contain actual pumpkin?
The Pumpkin Linzer Tarts are made with real pumpkin puree in the filling, not just pumpkin spice. The cinnamon and nutmeg support the pumpkin rather than replace it, which gives the filling the genuine flavor and body of the vegetable rather than a spice blend standing in for it.
Will the powdered sugar on the Pumpkin Linzer Tarts survive shipping and display?
The powdered sugar dusting is durable in dry conditions but softens and spots if it meets humidity, so the tarts hold their look best on a cool, dry shelf. Many bakeries give sandwich cookies like these a light fresh dusting before display if the ones in the box have settled in transit.
How is a Pumpkin Linzer Tart different from a slice of pumpkin pie on a dessert menu?
A Pumpkin Linzer Tart delivers the pumpkin-and-spice flavor of a pie in a handheld, shelf-stable cookie that needs no plate, fork, or refrigeration. It gives a menu the fall pumpkin option without the labor of baking, slicing, and cold-holding a pie, which suits grab-and-go and catering better.
Are the two cookies in the Pumpkin Linzer Tart soft or crisp?
The cookies in the Pumpkin Linzer Tart are vanilla shortbread-style rounds that stay tender rather than hard, which suits a sandwich cookie since a brittle cookie would crack when bitten through a filling. The soft filling and the tender cookie are matched so the whole piece bites cleanly.
