Description

A message from chairman kwan Long ago we decided to make the best fortune cookies using superior ingredients. Premium flour. Pure granulated sugar. Fresh eggs. Fine flavoring. And memorable messages. We built a bakery just for fortune cookies, and purchased high-tech fortune cookie machines to make beautiful looking cookies at amazing speed. We continue to invest to keep our products superior and haven’t changed our recipe in 28 years. Early on we decided to focus on making custom message fortune cookies for trade shows, direct mail, sales promotions, and birthday parties. Our customers went on to use them for weddings, school events, graduation messages and even proposals! We designed the business to provide caring customer service, quick turn-around time, accuracy on orders, and supply a variety of packaging ideas. Because we make the fortune cookies onsite, we can provide the best quality fortune cookie and the commit to the fastest turn-around on your orders without charging a rush fee. I am very proud of the team that works here at www.KCFortuneCookieFactory.com. Working together, we all make our mission a reality, and we’d be glad help you.

Keefer Court: Baking a Fortune By David Madsen, Free Speech Zone August 31, 2010 “Judge each day not by the harvest you reap but by the seeds you plant.”; “It is better to have a hen tomorrow than an egg today.”; “Did you remember to order takeout?” These are some of the inspirational, and sometimes confusing, messages people often receive their meals at American Chinese Restaurants. Since the introduction of Chinese cuisine to the Western palette, the fortune cookie has been a staple dessert for many foodies. But where do these prophesying pastries come from? In 1995, Sunny Kwan brought the scent of fresh-baked fortune cookies to Seward with the construction of Keefer Court Food’s Fortune Cookie Division. Since then, his company and website (www.e-fortunecookie.com) have become one of the largest fortune cookie distributors in the upper Midwest. Kwan’s initial venture into the culinary world was in 1982 with the introduction of Keefer Court Bakery located on Cedar Avenue. The café, was added on in 1987 and is still operated by his family. It soon became a beacon on the West Bank for those craving Cantonese-style food and Hong Kong-style baked goods.

You’re rushed. You’re busy. You don’t have much time for lunch. You certainly don’t have time to contemplate an obscure, elliptical aphorism hidden in the fortune cookie that comes after your meal. You want a fortune that you can understand, information you can use, now, today, that addresses you personally. Or at least that’s what fortune writers have divined. Fortune cookies, however steeped in the illusion of ancient tradition, have changed to keep up with our fast-paced culture. Confucius is out. Philosophy is out. Broken English is out. Simple is in. Instant gratification is in. Humor is in. And if you miss the old-fashioned fortunes with your moo goo gai pan? “Well, welcome to the ’90s. Being philosophical no longer works.” Maryann Blais, who writes fortunes for a small company in Massachusetts, says that fortunes “have become more liberal, easier to understand, more fun.” Blais, a former truck driver, runs the office for United Automation Technology, a company in Westborough, Mass., that manufactures both fortune cookie slips and fortune cookie-making machines. The fortune cookie experience of the ’90s should not be boring or confusing, she says.
