Thank you DoubleTree from all of our Families

Homefree holds a humble ideal, we want all children and families to be included wherever treats are served.

It is with a warm smile I tell you that Homefree chocolate chip mini cookies are now being offered as the nut-free alternative to the iconic walnut chocolate chip cookie provided to guests upon arrival at DoubleTree by Hilton hotels. Just think, now when your family checks in to any DoubleTree by Hilton hotel, your family will be welcomed with a treat most anyone can enjoy!

This initiative is a powerful corporate statement that the DoubleTree values our comfort, safety, and overall experience, particularly because the hotels are giving the cookies to guests for free! Every guest who does not opt for the standard cookie is instead to be offered a bag of Homefree cookies. Now guests with a nut allergy—and, in fact guests with most special dietary needs, including people who need to be free from peanut, tree nut, dairy, egg, and gluten—can feel included in DoubleTree’s welcome.

We, as a food allergy community, need to speak up if we want to see this program sustained, and if we want to see initiatives like this more widely in the hospitality industry. Please let the DoubleTree know that their commitment to families with food allergies matters. And I hope that each of us will show them how much we appreciate not only the cookies, but also their financial commitment to us, by reciprocating that when choosing where to stay when we travel. And please, spread the news!

Cheers to Hospitality and Inclusion,

Jill Robins, President of Homefree
