Put them all in one basket

For Easter, the wholesale bakery Bisousweet Confections bakes tender chick- and egg-shaped cookies that are rich in butter, perfect to add to an Easter basket or plate of holiday treats. Karen Collins, who runs the Shirley-based company, and her staff artfully decorate the cookies with pastel icing and package them in cellophane bags tied with ribbon ($2 to $3). The confections are made with pure ingredients and are not too sweet. The bakery also offers a 1-pound Easter sampler box with a dozen of the company’s signature buttery cookies — rounds of lemon shortbread, raspberry almond, orange coconut, and more, plus the adorable peep-shaped cookie ($14 to $16). Available at Cardullo’s Gourmet Shoppe, 6 Brattle St., Cambridge, 617-491-8888; Pemberton Farms Marketplace, 2225 Massachusetts Ave., Cambridge, 617-491-2244; Fruit Center Marketplace, 10 Bassett St., Milton, 617-696-5274, and 79 Water St., Hingham, 781-749-7332; Donelan’s Supermarkets locations.
