[mavman]

i will be going the last week of November ito December...heard it’s ok crowd wise but who knows. I know we can get normal beignets but will pumpkin still be available at that time or too late in the year.

I hear the Xmas candy canes are awesome so that may be a mission lol

Last year there were peppermint beignets by then.

Expect big crowds and then you'll be either properly prepared or pleasantly surprised. I know a TON of people going first week of December because they've "heard it's not too crowded," so I'm curious if it will turn into the opposite!

I’m not worried about crowds since I’ll be there for 4 days. Plenty of time. Plus I assume 30-60 so we shall see.

Peppermint? Interesting


Who usually sells the peppermint beignets?

The Mint Julep Bar has offered pumpkin beignets in the past for HalloweenTime, but this year they went with Dreamsicle (orange) instead.

The Mint Julep Bar (and Cafe Orleans) usually offer seasonal beignets, along with the regular powdered sugar ones. I would also guess that by the time you go, they'll be offering their Holiday season flavor. In years past, they've offered peppermint (those were amazing), gingerbread, and butterscotch. We probably won't know what this year's Holiday season flavor is until much closer to the start of the Holiday Season.

I think getting the candy canes will be the hardest part. Crowds usually aren't too too bad.
