« Winter Stock Options | Main | To be… Coveted »

We don’t actually have all that many winter traditions ‘round about these parts. We’re usually up to our eyeballs in Smooch! and mail-order, and… Well, I can always count on making Gloop and Frostbite soaps but that’s the extent of it.

With the single exception of Chocolate Covered Cherries. This is a 3rd generation tradition that predates my birth. Every year that I can remember, my grandma has sent a box of these delicious candies. I suspect this is a tradition I’ve benefited from peripherally - when I was small, my mom very generously shared her precious gift. When I was older, and received my very own box? That was probably the single most special present I received that year.

So now it’s December, and I wanted to share own of my very own winter memories with you. We’ve created a Cherry Cordial Smack! for our monthly staff-pick. One perfect scoop of Cherries Jubilee, nestled in a gooey Vanilla Bean cream and encased in two decadent scoops of Chocolate Mousse.

It’s a simple, but perfectly balanced blend, and we’ve been hard-pressed not to taste-test this one.

A handful of other contender’s for December’s Smack o’ the Month?

Gloop - 2 Scoops Marshmallow, 2 Scoops Chocolate Mousse

Just Desserts Lite - 2 Scoops Fresh Squeezed Citrus, 2 Scoops Vanilla Bean

Just Desserts (with a kick) - 1 Scoop Fresh Squeezed Citrus, 1 Scoop Spice Trade, 2 Scoops Vanilla Bean

Mudslide - 1 Scoop Vanilla Bean, 1 Scoop Unearthed, 2 Scoops Espresso
