Bjorn's Colorado Honey
Sampling Orange Blossom Honey Butter, Toasted Hawaiian Rolls, and Tea
This month we will be offering samples of our 'Orange Blossom Honey Butter' recipe paired with toasted Hawaiian rolls.
The recipe calls for our Orange Blossom Varietal Honey! Which is unique, because it is one of the few honeys not from Colorado's foothills. Pontus (Owner and Beekeeper) has made numerous Beekeeping friends. This honey is an authentic Orange Blossom from a fellow friend in California. Flavored by pollination, but the sweet essence of the orange is delightful. (recipe cards available in-store)
We will also have samples of Tea with Tae offering their Honella flavor:
Honella is a caffeine-free tea blend of French vanilla, blue cornflower, and South African honeybush. To compliment the nodes of vanilla honeybush, we will sweeten the tea with our raw, unpasteurized Lavender Honey.
Tea with Tae is a woman-owned tea company based out of Denver, Colorado that proudly offers exquisite tea's in eco-friendly sachets!
COMB on in and see what the buzz is!

Nuance Chocolate
Sampling Twilight Release Coffee Confection
The Science of "Not-Chocolate": Taste Our New Twilight Release and Help Name This Category!
What legally makes chocolate, chocolate? Under FDA Standards of Identity, real chocolate requires non-fat cocoa solids. For this month’s Foodie Walk, Nuance Chocolate is pulling back the curtain on confectionery food science with the exclusive in-store release of Twilight, a stone-ground bar crafted from pure cocoa butter, cane sugar, and whole roasted Wander Coffee Twilight beans.
Because it has zero cocoa solids, we legally cannot call it chocolate! We are one of fewer than half a dozen makers in the world who stone-grind whole coffee beans into a tempered, snap-able bar like this, and we need your help naming this brand-new category of craft treat.
Taste and Shop the "Twilight" Release: Sample this rich, snappy, coffee confection made with our Old Town friends at Wander Coffee. Bars will be available to purchase in-store starting on Foodie Walk night (and online shortly after!).
Cast Your Vote: Is it Coffalate? Mokalate? Mocao? Drop your best name idea at the cart during Foodie Walk to help us name this new category!

Looking for something to do with your leftover turkey? Trailhead Spice will be sampling our Taco Soup - Spice & Easy mix. While it calls for beef, you can use any protein with it. This month we will be using chicken, but it would taste just as good with leftover turkey. Our taco soup seasoning mix tastes like tacos in soup form, with earthy, salty, and umami flavors. The addition of sweet corn and hearty black beans will bring you the comfort you need in a bowl of taco soup. Sure to become a favorite!
