Highland Coo Cows? Yes, there are such things and they’re adorable or as adorable as a cow can be. To see one of these fluffy long-haired and rather large cows, you’d have to travel to the Scottish Highlands. Or more easily, you can find a drawing of one of these cuties—and supposedly sweet natured cattle—on the label of Coo Moo, the name Julie Deck chose for her line of jams–Peachy Mango Madness and Apricot Habanero as well as a Wooster Sauce to use to add a burst of flavor to a variety of dishes.
The Story
“I love Jam. I love Scotland. I love the Highland Coo cow. These things that I love so dearly inspired me and helped me create Coo Moo Jams. But the journey getting here has been an adventure full of love, hard work and determination.” Julie Deck, Founder of Coo Moo Jams
