Care Package for Cancer Patients

care gifts

Send them support in the form of Susansnaps. At Susansnaps, we believe a delicious cookie can brighten anyone’s day, especially those facing the challenges of Cancer. That’s why we created our Cancer Care line, gift packages filled with our signature gingersnap cookies – a thoughtful way to show you care.

Inspired by a personal story of finding comfort in ginger during treatment, we bake each batch with love and purpose. Ginger is known for its stomach-soothing properties, potentially offering some relief from chemo-related nausea. But more than that, our cookies are a warm hug, a burst of flavor, and a reminder that they’re not alone in this fight.

We offer a variety of care packages to fit your needs. From a single gift tin to a “Get Well Grand Gift Box,” each package is wrapped and ready to send, with a personal message included. Let your loved one know you’re thinking of them with a taste of encouragement – because sometimes, the sweetest medicine comes in the form of a cookie.

Explore our Cancer Care collection. Let’s spread hope and deliciousness, one ginger snap at a time.

Cookies Made With Love

IN 2004 THINGS looked grim for the Stachler family. Dad Ken and daughter Susan underwent back-to-back chemo for non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and Hodgkin’s disease, respectively.

Mother Laura was distraught until she learned that ginger helps cancer patients fight nausea. Having grown up in the restaurant industry, baking was something she knew and could do for her loved ones.

Enter Susansnaps, a gourmet cookie company co-owned by Laura and Susan and named after Laura’s sister Susan Carver Smith who succumbed to Hodgkin’s at 28.

“What was once just a small idea has now turned into a thriving company, and it started with some flour, sugar, eggs, and spices from the Perimeter [Georgia] Costco,” says Susan, who handles marketing and packaging and, like her dad, is doing OK.

The Atlanta-based commpany produces up to 10,000 of the chewy/crunchy cookies a day. A portion of the sales goes to the non-profit Susan Carver Foundation, which Laura established to support cancer research and cancer patients. “I’ve always wanted to give back, but never did I think I would be raising money for a cause I benefit from,” says Susan. -Shana McNally

Snappy Days: After facing the same illness in back-to-back generations, a Georgia mother and daughter set their course to “give a snap…see a smile.”

True-life steel magnolias Laura Stachler and Susan Carver Robbins exemplify the character of many Southern women:  Through good times and bad, do what you can, and do it well.  In their recently opened storefront on the outskirts of Atlanta, the mother-daughter duo work side-by-side to make their signature gingersnaps.  Each day they bake 8,000 cookies, place them in chic packaging, and prepare them for shipping across the country. “It’s like poetry in motion,” says Laura, who pauses from cutting Christmas ribbons long enough to exchange grins with daughter Susan.

“People love the product and the packaging,” Laura continues, “but what they really respond to is the story.”  The story starts with Laura’s sister and Susan’s namesake, Susan Carver Smith, who passed away from Hodgkin’s disease at age 28.  Nearly three decades later, just before graduating from Auburn University, the younger Susan was also diagnosed with Hodgkin’s.  Over the next few months, Laura-whose husband required treatments for non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma around the same time- sat by through numerous rounds of chemotherapy.

In hopes of lifting her family’s spirits and helping in a tangible way, Laura, a professional baker, used her talents to develop the ultimate gingersnap.  The ginger served as a natural stomach soother to her husband and daughter, while flavorful, dark molasses imparted an irresistible taste.  Featuring just the right combination of spice and crunch, the snaps soon garnered attention beyond the close-knit Stachler family. “It slowly unfolded,” says Susan, who put her doodling skills to work and began designing logos for the packaging. “At first, we thought, ‘We’ll do this for 6 months, and then I’ll get a real job.'”

Several years, three flavors, and a storefront later, the cookies that Laura named “Susansnaps” in memory of her sister and in honor of her daughter keep the pair plenty busy with real jobs- plus they’re making a real difference.  A portion of all Susansnaps’ sales benefit The Susan Carver Foundation, which supports cancer research, specifically genetic studies.  The Foundation places equal importance on cancer patient gifts and donates gingersnap gift bags to those undergoing treatment during the holidays.  Susan, now a 6-year survivor, is quick to acknowledge that cookies won’t save the world. But she and mom Laura still pursue their mission with comparable fervor.  As Susan knows firsthand, “It’s good to make people smile.”
