One foggy summer kept Karen Haase and Carol Ford away from their usual bike rides and beach walks on Little Cranberry Island and pushed them into the kitchen. After spending days baking together, the two friends dreamed up a business dedicated to desserts inspired by the little island.

Why We Love It

Cranberry Island Kitchen only uses butter from Kate’s Homemade Butter churned by the Patry family in Old Orchard Beach, Maine. They believe the butter is one of the reasons why their whoopie pies are the “best on the planet.”

Although enjoyed in every state of the union, it is unclear where the original whoopie pie was born; Pennsylvania and Maine have tussled over ownership of this dessert for years. This past April, Mainers made whoopie pies their official state treat after tracing its roots to a Bangor, Maine woman who melded leftover bits of cake into a frosted sandwich.
