Juneteenth at Kneads and Wants

  • Kneads & Wants Artisan Bakery and Cafe 8042 Lincoln Avenue Skokie, IL, 60077 United States (map)

Celebrate freedom, flavor, and community this Juneteenth, Thursday, June 19, with something both delicious and meaningful. We’re marking the occasion with Shades of Snickerdoodle—a specialty cookie box that honors the richness of culture and the beauty of diversity.

Shades of Snickerdoodle – $15/box
Each box includes six handcrafted snickerdoodles in three delicious shades:

  • Classic Cinnamon

  • Bold Coffee

  • Deep Chocolate

Each cookie is a soft, chewy tribute to the spectrum of Black identity and flavor.

$3 from every box sold will be donated to The Loveland Foundation, an organization that provides access to therapy and mental health support for Black women, girls, and gender-expansive people. You can learn more or donate directly at thelovelandfoundation.org or our fundraiser page.

All preorders will be available for pickup on Juneteenth, Thursday, June 19, from 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Quantities are limited, so we strongly encourage preordering.

Juneteenth also falls on a Thursday—so the celebration continues into Ice Cream Night (5:30–9:00 PM) https://www.kneadsandwantsbakery.com/icecream ! Madeleine will be playing Chicago house music, and you can order a Shades of Snickerdoodle Ice Cream Sandwich—your choice of ice cream nestled between two cookies from the box.

Join us in honoring Juneteenth with reflection, joy, great music, and sweet community connection.
