Leftovers: Tidbits from the Food & Bev Community (8/15/17)

I created the “Leftovers” series to ensure I could share as much food and bev news as possible, so here’s the latest:

1. Caviar & Bananas is partnering with Pure Fluff Co. (all natural, organic cotton candy) to make a prosecco and cotton candy cocktail for the Eclipse. It’ll be available Saturday Aug, 19th through the 21st
   • Drink Name: Sun & the Moon
   • Price: $8
   • Prosecco topped with Pure Fluff cotton candy ball. The cotton candy is mixed berry flavor and made with activated charcoal. Once the ball is dropped in the drink, it dissolves and turns it gray (see before & after photos below). The charcoal has a detoxifying affect.
     
2. Additionally, Caviar & Bananas is offering a special Eclipse catering package for those picnicking or hosting parties. It comes with choice of sandwich or salad, one side, and a Black & White cookie. The package also includes Eclipse glasses, a glow in the dark straw, and glow in the dark cup. Orders have to be placed by Friday 8/18 at noon.
