HB 124 North Carolina House · 2025-2026 Session

Adopt Official State Cookie.

HB 124 would symbolically designate the Moravian cookie as North Carolina's official state cookie. This ceremonial bill does not create new laws, regulations, or financial obligations but formally recognizes the cookie's cultural significance and economic role through tourism and sales in Winston-Salem. It directly affects the state's official designation only, with no impact on residents, businesses, or policy implementation.
