starbucks

Recently at Starbucks I came across their Dark Chocolate Orange Frappuccino...not sure if it is new or a seasonal item....orange and dark chocolate go so well together...enough said!

They also have a Praline Eclair...loved the oozy caramel, cream and chocolate.

Plus, it was small...perfect for a snack.

Another thing I tried was their Berry Clafoutis.

I didn't like the crust, it was too hard but I did like the filling--raspberries, blueberries and strawberries with a custard filling.

A bit different from the clafoutis I have had in the past.

We had a sunny day yesterday and are forecasted for more rain, I hope you have a great weekend.

  15. These frappuccino are blended with ice Rick, more slushy than the type in the bottles that I've seen in the States.

    Take care.
