Tasty Surprise in Store

I just tasted something delicious. Something that you, lucky reader, will be able to order off our site in a couple of days. Something that you won't believe is so delicious when you know what it is.

"Yeah, so stop hyping and tell me what it is already."

Please give me another day or two as I deal with the amazing volume of orders for King Cakes, which have sold faster than anything we've ever offered on the site. Just how fast have they sold? Let's take a look at our Top 10 Products, shall we?

  1. Stollen--sells like crazy at Christmas. It'll be #2 by next week.
  2. Chocolate Birthday Cake (Complete Party Kit)
  3. Vanilla Birthday Cake (Complete Party Kit)
  4. Croissants
  5. Baby Boston Coffee Cakes
  6. Sugar-Free Low-Carb Flourless Chocolate Cake
  7. Cinnamon Walnut Coffee Cake
  8. King Cake (will be #7 by tomorrow, and we moved a ton of those Coffee Cakes at Christmas)
  9. Gourmet Cookies Gift Assortment
  10. Demitasse Party Petits Fours

For reference, the Stollen has been available from the first day the site launched. King Cakes debuted in late January. It's good to see the cakes selling well, especially since it's helping Randazzo's rebuild their business. We talked to Tricia today, and her husband hasn't slept in a couple of days as they process the orders.

If you'd like to order one, we're accepting orders until Noon Eastern tomorrow, February 23. I'd said 2PM, but I had to move it back. Please note that we cannot guarantee a delivery date at this time, but all orders received by noon tomorrow will arrive before Mardi Gras.
