Lowrey Butter Cookies can be ordered online from New Zealand for delivery to Australia. The cookies are handcrafted in New Zealand, packed in red gift tins and dispatched from Lowrey’s fulfilment centre in Auckland.
There are six flavours to choose from. Each tin contains one flavour, while selected multi-tin packs combine separate single-flavour tins. This guide covers the practical details to check before placing an Australian order, including flavours, AUD pricing, international shipping, storage and corporate gifting.

Which Lowrey Butter Cookie Flavour Should You Choose?
Lowrey currently offers six Butter Cookie flavours. Each recipe has its own balance of cultured butter and flavour ingredients, so the exact weight, butter percentage and ingredient list are not identical across the range.
| Flavour | Net Weight | Character |
|---|---|---|
| Original | 430g | The classic Lowrey flavour, made with 42% New Zealand cultured butter. |
| Coffee | 430g | A smooth coffee aroma with a deeper finish, made with 44% New Zealand cultured butter. |
| Chocolate | 430g | Cultured butter balanced with Dutch cocoa for a rich chocolate flavour. |
| Matcha | 430g | Made with matcha from Shizuoka, with a gentle green tea finish. |
| Raspberry | 430g | A bright fruit flavour made with 2.3% freeze-dried raspberry and 41% New Zealand cultured butter. |
| Black Sesame | 360g | A toasted sesame flavour made with 10% black sesame seeds and 36% New Zealand cultured butter. |
Availability can change, particularly for larger orders. Check the individual product page for the current price, stock status, ingredient list and allergen information before ordering.
Does One Tin Contain More Than One Flavour?
No. Each Lowrey Butter Cookie tin contains one flavour only.
A multi-flavour gift pack contains several separate tins, with one flavour in each tin. These packs follow the selection shown in the product listing; the flavours are not chosen at random. Check the product title and description to confirm exactly which tins are included.
This format keeps the flavour of each recipe distinct and also makes it easier to divide a larger order between households, colleagues or gift recipients.
How to View Lowrey Prices in Australian Dollars
The Lowrey Foods currency selector includes Australian dollars. Select AUD from the currency menu to view the store in Australian dollars.
Prices and exchange rates may change. Before paying, review the currency, product total, delivery charge and any taxes shown in the final checkout summary.
Shipping Lowrey Butter Cookies to Australia
Website orders are prepared and dispatched from Auckland. The delivery service and shipping charge available for an Australian address are shown at checkout.
Eligible international orders of NZ$169 or more receive free DHL shipping. This threshold is set in New Zealand dollars. The cart and checkout will confirm whether the order qualifies when another display currency is being used.
Delivery time can vary according to the destination, order-processing time, dispatch date, customs procedures and courier conditions. Tracking details are sent after the parcel has been dispatched.
Lowrey delivers to more than 60 countries and regions, but this should not be read as a guarantee of delivery to every location. Enter the complete Australian address at checkout to confirm the service available for that destination.

Australian Taxes, Duties and Other Charges
The checkout summary shows the product total, delivery charge and any taxes collected by the website at the time of purchase.
If an Australian authority or courier later applies an import duty, tax, customs fee, brokerage fee or other destination charge that was not collected at checkout, that charge is the recipient’s responsibility. Import requirements can change, so customers should review the final checkout total and any current Australian import guidance before ordering.
Can the Cookies Break During International Delivery?
Lowrey Butter Cookies are deliberately delicate. Their butter-rich recipes create a very fragile, melt-in-the-mouth texture rather than a hard or crunchy biscuit.
The rigid gift tin provides useful support, and orders are packed carefully for international courier delivery. The tin does not make the cookies unbreakable, however. Some movement or breakage can occur if a parcel is dropped, crushed or handled roughly.
If a parcel arrives damaged, open and inspect all affected tins and contact Lowrey within five calendar days of delivery. Keep the outer carton and internal packaging, and provide the order number together with clear photographs of the parcel, packaging and affected products. The Lowrey team will review the circumstances before confirming the available resolution.
Shelf Life and Storage
Lowrey Butter Cookies have an unopened shelf life of approximately nine months. Always check the best-before date printed on the pack you receive.
Store unopened tins in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, heat and moisture. After opening, close the internal packaging and press the tin lid firmly back into place. For the best flavour and texture, enjoy the cookies within four weeks of opening.
A tin generally contains approximately 38–45 cookies, although the number can vary according to the flavour, cookie shape and natural variation between batches.
Ingredients and Allergen Information
Lowrey Butter Cookies contain milk and wheat. Ingredients differ by flavour, and some recipes contain additional ingredients such as cocoa, coffee, matcha, raspberry or sesame.
The Original flavour uses an egg-free recipe. Customers should not assume that every product has the same ingredient or allergen profile. Read the individual product page and the package label before serving the cookies, particularly where allergies or other dietary requirements are involved.
Products are made in an environment that also handles peanuts, almonds and other nuts. People with nut allergies should follow the warning provided on the relevant product label.
Choosing Lowrey Butter Cookies as a Gift in Australia
The red tin is designed to be presented as a finished food gift without requiring elaborate additional wrapping. It works well for family visits, birthdays, Christmas and New Year gatherings, thank-you gifts, office sharing and gifts for people with a connection to New Zealand.
Original is the most direct introduction to the Lowrey style because it places the cultured butter flavour at the centre. Chocolate and Coffee offer familiar richer notes, while Matcha, Raspberry and Black Sesame provide more distinctive alternatives. The best choice depends on the recipient’s taste and dietary requirements.
For several recipients, choose a multi-tin pack that clearly lists the included flavours. Remember that a multi-tin pack contains separate single-flavour tins rather than several flavours mixed inside one tin.
Corporate and Bulk Orders for Australia
Lowrey accepts enquiries for client gifts, staff gifts, events, wholesale supply and overseas business gifting.
Corporate and bulk orders start from five cartons, with 12 tins per carton, for a minimum total of 60 tins. Flavours, stock availability, pricing, timing and delivery arrangements should be confirmed before the order is placed.
Selected greeting cards may be added to an order. Personalised messages, branded inserts or special presentation requests are not standard inclusions and must be confirmed with the Lowrey team according to the quantity, timing and requirements.

Are Lowrey Butter Cookies the Same as Shortbread?
No. Lowrey Butter Cookies and Lowrey Shortbread are separate product ranges.
Lowrey Butter Cookies are made for a delicate, very fragile and melt-in-the-mouth texture and are presented in red gift tins. Shortbread follows a firmer, more traditional biscuit style and has its own recipes, flavours and packaging.
If you are deciding between the two, read the full guide to the difference between butter cookies and shortbread.
