February 2020 Monthly Digest

What's new for this month?

This February we have some favorites making their long-awaited return for our Valentine's week menu! Check out a few highlights below, and read our blog for the full pro- and anti- Valentine's flavor breakdown. 

  • Cherry Heart Cookies: our classic, tender butter cookies tinted a sweet pink topped with hint-of-cherry cream cheese and adorable sprankles (and these are actually available all month!)
  • Ashes of Old Flames cupcakes: vanilla chocolate chip cake with oreo icing, a dark chocolate ganache drizzle, and ghost sprankles. This may or may not be the flavor I wait ALL YEAR for!
  • Hot, Hot, Hot Cupcakes: we combine our signature dark chocolate cake with cinnamon-cayenne buttercream for a treat with a tiny kick!

... plus special Cult Cameo appearances by our Cherry Bomb cupcakes (Feb. 14-15) and Raspberry Swirl Blondies (Feb. 28-29).

Our Midtown shop's February Drink of the Month is the Honey, I'm Home latte! This drink features the rich, nutty flavor of hazelnut, perfectly balanced with the sweetness of Cubano espresso + the woody aroma of cinnamon. Just one sip will have you feeling warm and cozy, like coming home after a long day! (P.S. it's delicious hot or iced.)

What's rolling off the menu?

Our special pro- and anti-Valentine's flavors will only be on the menu the week of Valentine's Day so don't become broken-hearted by missing your chance for these treats!
