Taste of Koko celebrates new travel guidebook & limited edition treat

Austin’s veteran food blogger Jane Ko, aka Taste of Koko, finished 2022 strong, introducing a guide book dedicated to things to all things to do in Fredericksburg, Texas and launching a sweet limited-edition collaboration with Cookie Rich to create her own cookie and curate a box of her favorites.

Jane and Cookie Rich founder Lorin Peters

Jane said the idea to partner with Cookie Rich and its founder, Chef Lorin Peters (formerly of The French Laundry!), said she was thrilled with the collaboration because she loves using her platform to celebrate local businesses and partnering with another small, local, women-founded and women-run business seemed like a natural fit.

Hot Koko

The limited edition Taste of Koko cookie, the Hot Koko, is a  gold-dusted, white chocolate chip cookie with dark fudge filling and a dollop of marshmallow fluff.

Koko's Curated Box

Available in a 4-pack or 12-pac the full box includes: Hot Koko, Birthday + Sprinkle Cream Cheese, Cookies + Cream, and Red Velvet + Cream Cheese - all gold dusted.  The Hot Koko may already be gone, but the other fun flavors and more can be found at https://getcookierich.com/

Celebrating with William Chris

During a soiree at The Loren at Lady Bird Lake guests complimented their Cookie Rich sweets with wine from Hill Country favorite William Chris Vineyards.

Koko's Guide To Fredericksburg

Jane’s second book, a pocket-sized travel guidebook to eating and drinking your way through Fredericksburg and Texas wine country includes 45 wineries by wine types, grape varietals, wine tasting, wine club membership and winery. Find it on Amazon.
