The cookies are named for the President, who stopped in unexpectedly in 2009 to buy cookies for his daughters. Sales of the maple-leaf-shaped sugar cookies surged from and average of 200 cookies/day to 2000.I'm not sure how much sales have dwindled since then, if at all. We had to stand in line to get our Obama cookies at the Byward Market. I know the bakery sells other things, but none of us seemed able to resist these Presidential treats.
