The Approach of Summer Fest

This will be the shop's third Potsdam Summer Festival. We are pretty excited about participating in the local parade this year. We are creating the Willy Wonka Boat Float! We will have a Violet after she turned into a blueberry, Wilamena Wanka (Willie's long lost sister, who finally got into the family biz), and three oompa loompas. We will be handing out Willy Wonka jaw breakers and Laffy Taffy. So if you are in the Potsdam, NY area on July 10, be sure to stick around for the late afternoon parade and say to the gals.

We are also very stoked about our newest flavor, inspired by request from our lactose intolerant customers. We have created dark soy truffles... and they are very tasty, if we do say so ourselves. We started with the dark/dark version, and have also created a dark with dark raspberry. So spread the word... who said you can't enjoy truffles!

Another new addition is the Dark Almond Toffee. The butter crunch toffee has dark chocolate on each side, with almonds sprinkled on top. It as a delightful crispness to it, and that stick to your teeth effect.

And for that Flavor of the Month for June is Pitcairn Apricot (Apricot Jell in Dark Chocolate.) The apricot is very suttle in this one. July's flavor of the month will be Blake Blueberry. When we were kids and visiting relatives at the Blake-McNeil Campsite in South Colton, the blueberries grew wild around the campsites. It was a nice fresh taste on cereal. Then Dad started growing some tame ones at home... you had to get them quickly however, or else the birds beat us to them.

Our goal is to continue to add more flavors unti we have completely filled our two cooler cases. We have severl slots we can fill... so keep checking back for our newest flavors over the next few months.
