Freshly roasted espresso grinds poured from the brown paper bag into the unbreakable, 800-year-old Hobart Mixer. (Okay, maybe that’s an exageration). The aroma of coffee filled the kitchen, and the once brown Picky dough turned to a dark black. Prior to even tasting it, the smell told us we had a winner.
Before we could call our new creation perfect, though, we had to tweak a few ingredients: add a little more Oregon hazelnut butter, a little less cranberries, use plain protein powder instead of vanilla…But, like all goals, we had our eyes set on the prize, and we tested and tasted endless batches of our coffee-infused flavor.
Once pleased with our new flavor – and believe us, we are very pleased - we included a sample in every Picky Club member’s monthly shipment, and with much anticipation, we asked our members to help name this new addition.
Jave Haze, Nuts over Cofee, Java Nuts, Amped on Hazelnut…
What other ideas do you have for our new flavor?
As soon as we name this bad boy, we can put it in your hands.
Stay Picky,
The Picky Bar Crew
