French Hot Chocolate and Holiday Cookie Platters
Ooh la la...French-style hot chocolate is back again for the winter months. Made with whole milk, heavy cream, Callebaut dark chocolate and cocoa powder, it's a treat for the serious chocolate lover. We heat it to order (in two sizes) and serve topped with real whipped cream. Ask for it at the deli counter. When ordered in advance, we also sell it by the quart, cold, for you to heat and serve at home. We make our French-style hot chocolate in small batches, so be sure to give us a couple days notice if you'd like a quart or more.
Time to order Holiday Cookie Platters! We will have our beautiful, delicious cookie platters available starting next week. Small (10.99) and large (16.99 platters are great as hostess gifts, or for those who just don't have time to bake. Order ahead-we will have some on the shelves, but they sell out quickly!

The Weather Outside is Frightful...
At least that is the prediction for Sunday morning. If you can make it to the Creamery safely on Sunday, and could volunteer to help us move some snow from our significantly expanded walkways, it would be greatly appreciated.
The cashiers and deli staff who usually have to break away to do this job can continue to assist customers. Bring a shovel if you are able to help. Your cooperative assistance will be greatly appreciated. Thanks
