Life of a Leafer - the other side of the toppings bar!

Yogurt and Topping and Spoons - OH MY!

Neon orange, lime green and all the yogurt and toppings you can imagine... how could you not love working at "The Leaf"? It's kind of like working in the grand ole land of Oz or Willy Wonka's factory!

One of my favorite things each day is convincing customers, old and brand new, to try a new flavor or toppings combo than their norm and watch them enjoy a whole new yogurt adventure! I am frequently asked how I come up with some of my random combinations - like cotton candy and cheesecake with white chocolate chips! My answer is always the same... Part of doing my job well is exhaustive taste testing! I know, I know it's a huge sacrifice I make each day but somebody has to do it.

Monroe LEAFERS
celebrating Christmas!

As Leafers we get to enjoy ALL the events and crazy days here at "The Leaf".

Spencer's favorite so far was Christmas as "The Leaf" and our staff Christmas party where, yes we ate MORE yogurt!

Rachel loved our Karaoke night where she and Spencer sang Britney for everyone.

and I remember the first time my niece visited Orange Leaf and she kept spitting her sprinkles back into her cup because she didn't want to run out!

You just can't have a bad day at Orange Leaf, so come by and take a break with us leafers. We promise to help you create your perfectly yummy treat and provide you with a welcome break in your day each and every time you visit us... after all we do know all the best combos!

Selling magazines, gift wrap, and holding auctions;  these are the things you think about when talking about school fundraisers.  Bake sales, food donations, and catfish fry's are the routs that churches take to raise much needed funds to help their community.  Youth organizations organize car washes, businesses hold raffles, and charities have to go to extraordinary lengths like holding Mardi Gras balls, Culinary Classics, and decorating businesses windows for Christmas to obtain their much needed funds.

What do all of these organizations have in common?  They all have the ability to PARTNER with ORANGE LEAF! On Monday or Tuesday nights, schedule your organizations fundraiser at Orange Leaf!  Our most recent partner was LEXINGTON ELEMENTARY in Monroe.  On Monday night, it was the K-2 classes turn to turn Orange Leaf in to tiger BLACK and YELLOW!  Teachers worked the toppings bar, greeted their guests, and gave out sample cups.  On Tuesday night, the 3-6 grades supported their school and enjoyed Freaux Yeaux while doing it.  Orange Leaf Louisiana in turn gave the school 20% off ALL proceeds during their time on both nights and any teacher working the nights receive a 25% off card good for one yogurt a day for a YEAR!  It was a HUGE success!

"Kicking" off Lake Charles right!

Lake Charles Mayor Roach cutting ribbon for
Orange Leaf Lake Charles 3-2-12

Mayor Roach explained it best at the 3-2-12 Ribbon Cutting of Orange Leaf Frozen Yogurt in Lake Charles. He had just visited a first grade class to read a Dr. Suess book and was asking the children if they had ever thought about who made this book?  The children replied that Dr. Suess did!  Mayor Roach told them that Dr. Suess had not cut the trees to made the paper, printed the words, bound the pages together, or had delivered it to their classroom.  The children had their first lesson in Business 101.  It's all the little things that go on behind the finished product you now see before you.  And the first thing was to make the decision to do it.  He thanked Orange Leaf Louisiana for making that decision, and for deciding to open in Lake Charles.

So, in return, we thank you, Lake Charles.  Thank you for your support and continued patronage!  A celebration to show our thanks was held yesterday. The McNeese Kickers were on hand selling their AWESOME calendars and signing autographed pictures for our guests.  

Crunchy the Clown made an appearance as well, painting magical faces and twisting up some fantastic balloon animals!  Grand Opening Cakes were provided by Sweet Chic Cupcake Bakery and contests, giveaways, and Guessing the Weight to receive it free were some of the activities of the day.  Smiles, laughter and even a little dancing told the real story.

Crunchie entertaining guests!
