Look for these special holiday flavors on Sunday (December 3rd) at the Campbell Farmers’ Market: Bûche de Noël (Yule Log) Devil’s food cake with vanilla buttercream filling, chocolate ganache frosting, and meringue mushroom topping. Chocolate Peppermint Devil’s food cake with vanilla buttercream frosting and a crushed peppermint candy cane topping. And because we disappointed so [...]

I ran across an interesting article about how Starbucks is planning on operating a total of 40,000 stores at some point in the near future. They have about 12,500 now. I enjoy the occasional Iced Coffee, but come on, does anyone drink that much Starbucks? If they do, is this the result?

Not very well, thank you. Not that we didn’t have a good time, but we came back with over 4 dozen cupcakes. What’s up guys? No cupcake love today? Maybe it was the fog. The Starbucks line was pretty short. Also, Banana, Mocha & Pumpkin might not be high on everyone’s list of favorites. We’ll [...]

We’ve had a few requests to make the flyer we hand out at the Market available here as a pdf file. So here you go. Now you can print them out to your hearts content, hang some on your wall (just like we do here at Snack HQ), and hand them out to your friends, [...]

I don’t know if you can make this image out, but that slide reads “Personal Hygiene.” Like in “How to wash your hands.” Or more relevant to my day, “How I just spent 8 hours learning how to wash my hands.” Hint: Using soap and warm water helps. Although I didn’t learn until later, renting [...]

You know you’re on to something when half the people that walk by go “whaaaa?”, and the other half go “OMG!” Last weekend was the formal unveiling of our Red Velvet cupcake. Rich chocolatey cake with a touch of vinegar, and our killer cream cheese frosting, topped with some classy sugar crystals. You’ll notice in [...]

Our third sales day at the Market, and we ended with less than a dozen! That trend is right! Another huge line at Starbucks, which faithfully predicted another big crowd at the Market. I want to apologize for forgetting to post the flavors for this week. It was nuts all week (again), and it totally [...]
