Ingredients like cinnamon, pumpkin, peppermint, gingerbread or even s’mores, always make their way into our everyday food during the autumn and winter months. Crazes like these burst in popularity and bolster sales of food and drinks listed with these items and are marketed as being a holiday or seasonal exclusive. Twists on usual drinks like s’mores in a latte or peppermint chocolate chips in a cake pique the interest of consumers. Other times, classics are what brings enjoyment like 85°C Bakery’s opera cake: a 20th century French cake soaked in coffee syrup. These sweets will make for a nice and rewarding treat following the end of finals.
Themed menus push forward holiday-exclusive treats
The use of seasonal ingredients in foods has led to cafes and restaurants releasing drinks and snacks, only available for a short time.
