Editor's Picks: October 2023

Fall just might be my favorite season. I blame it on the food. And time in the woods with my pups. Besides the seasonal staples like soup and squash, cider and fest biers, candles and candy, potatoes and pot roasts, here are a few things I’m finding necessary these days.

CADIA

Maple Cookies

Forget road-tripping to see fall foliage, fill your cookie jar with these for maple tree madness! Made with 100% pure maple syrup, rich maple crème is sandwiched between crisp maple wafers for unbe-leaf-able fresh-tapped flavor.

 

Co-op Deli

Hot Hot Shot

That’s not a typo – it’s our hot shot, but hot! With organic apples, lemons, ginger, and a dash of cayenne, the hot shot is already a pick-me-up, but order it hot for a warm, soothing sipper that’s energy-boosting, too.

 

Co-op Bakery

Amaretto Cream Cake

This is my dream cake. And it’s back! The end. But really, if you’re an almond paste or marzipan fan, you simply must. Like all of our chilled cakes and cupcakes, it’s best to let them rest 5-10 minutes for the full flavor experience. You know, because they’re made with real ingredients, like buttah.

 

Soap Cauldron

Soapy Tails Dog Shampoo + Conditioner Bars

As many giggles as I get squirting a stripe of blue goo shampoo on my winter white dogs, the plastic bottles are no joke. I’ve officially switched to Soapy Tails for a fluffy lather made with pure essential oils that’s safe for sensitive doggo skin and the planet, too!
