Hemstrought’s Bakery
About
Hemstrought’s Bakery in Utica is known for what it calls the original Halfmoon Cookie. The recipe has not changed since 1920, and the cookies are baked from scratch every morning with all-natural ingredients. The Halfmoon, with its cakey base and half chocolate, half vanilla icing, is a Mohawk Valley classic.
The cookie is closely tied to Utica, and this bakery is among the places that made it a regional favorite. A box of Halfmoons is a classic gift to take to a party or bring home as a souvenir from the Mohawk Valley.
