A few things that have been happening around the shop:
- Updated Cocoa Monkey blend: Over the winter we had the painful revelation that the Cocao Monkey mix lacked a certain… well it wasn’t as good as we’d like. So, we went back into the lab and taste tested countless varieties of cocoa powder (okay, it was like 5). After much deliberation we settled on a slightly darker, slightly higher cacao fat variety and we think it’s delicious. The Cocoa Monkey mix is still a little more of a fickle beast than our Original workhorse formula (translation: you can’t just dump random stuff into a blender and expect it to be tasty), and really works best with a milk base, but with the right recipe it really shines. Try starting with one of our awesome taste tested recipes before you go all Top Chef with it.
- New Address: As part of our bid to slowly take over the internet inch by inch, we’ve finally manged to procure the domain name www.monkeyshake.com. Yes! No more crazy hyphen needed when looking up your favorite recovery shake mix! Yes, the old address will still work. In fact so will www.monkey-shakes.com as well as ye old 1010monkeyshake.com. It’s exactly like the old “all roads lead to Rome” bit… Only different. Yes we realize this is is probably totally not exciting to anyone but us, but we though we should share anyway.
- New Packaging: We’ve revamped the packaging on our “Pack” of Monkey size. Instead of three two-serving bags you’ll get one six-serving bag. Sadly, this doesn’t save us any money but it does significantly reduce the amount of waste produced, which in our book is a good thing. The new bags are also nifty looking and should be easier to scoop out of.
- Getting social on the interwebs: We want to hear from loyal customers like you. Follow us on Twitter at@MonkeyShake2Go or Like us on Facebook and let us know what you think about our products.
