March - Atticus Happenings
Thank you for an awesome February!
A look back on last month's beverage specials! We were psyched to introduce the Ruby Hot Chocolate!
A rich hot chocolate experience with bright fruity notes, tart and sweet with a juicy finish. So, what made this hot cocoa so special?
The chocolate!
Ruby chocolate is a unique type of chocolate that is made from specially processed ruby cocoa beans. It has a distinctive pinkish-red color, which is natural and comes from the beans themselves. Ruby chocolate has a slightly tangy and fruity flavor profile, with notes of berries.
This unique chocolatey bev will be taking a hiatus till next year, stay tuned for this month's specials launching soon!
Our beloved palmiers looked a little different this past month! The shape will be changing up, but don't worry, these babies aren't going anywhere!
We had our first CT Food Launchpad event of 2024 on February 9th!
We had many wonderful guest speakers and partners involved in this event to make the day possible. Among those was:
🎤Charlie Negaro, CEO at sister companies Chabaso Bakery and Atticus New Haven, and co-founder at CT Food Launchpad, will be a participant at The Big Connecticut Food Event in the panel discussion Connecting the dots: Cross-sector partnerships in the entrepreneurship pipeline.
Charlie is the CEO of Chabaso Bakery and Atticus in New Haven, CT. Chabaso is a wholesale manufacturer of frozen artisan breads, and distributes to retailers on the east coast. Atticus has 2 retail locations in New Haven – a bookstore cafe that opened in 1975 and a market that opened in 2021. Charlie has spent 20 years in all aspects of the manufacturing and retail industry. Most recently he co-founded CT Food Launchpad to leverage his experience with bringing products to market to help emerging CT food brands with market ready products to grow their business and get on retailer shelves.
