FALL into Orange Leaf!

Fall Festivals, Changing of Leaves, Halloween Carnivals, and Autumn Spices come to mind when you think of the word FALL!   Fall has officially arrived at Orange Leaf and with it brings Fall Flavors!  Two BRAND new flavors hit the wall tomorrow and one tried & true, and we are so excited to share them with you! 

Caramel Apple is the first!  One taste of this scrumptious mixture will send you straight to the fair, and have you imagining that crisp green apple covered in decadent caramel!

Next up is Oatmeal Cookie!  The smell of fresh cookies will fill your senses, and with one bite, it will be hard to believe that you aren't eating one fresh from the oven!

The third fall flavor is a favorite!  Pumpkin Pie is one of our best cold weather flavors!  Add a little whipped cream from the toppings bar to this heavenly freaux yeaux, and you would swear you are at your grandmothers table at Thanksgiving eating dessert!

Fall into Orange Leaf, soon.  You will be happy you did!

We've got spirit, yes we do, we've got spirit, how 'bout you?

Orange & Peach, The New IT Couple!

What do you think about when you hear Ruston, Louisiana?  Louisiana Tech University?  T.L. James? Davison Trucking or maybe Sundown Tavern?  Well, most of you probably would say one of the above mentioned , but most would also include PEACHES!  The Squire Creek Country Club Peach Festival is held every year at Railroad Park in the hot days of June. This year marked the 62nd annual Festival and boasted a record setting crowd.

Many famous people also boast Ruston as their hometown.  Some are: Member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame Terry Bradshaw, Country Singer Trace Adkins, Basketball Superstar Karl Malone, and current NFL kicker & LA TECH Football Player Matt Stover just to name a few. 

So, with all that going for it, what more does Ruston need?  You guessed it, ORANGE!  Shooting for a Halloween Opening Date, Orange Leaf Frozen Yogurt is set to open it's doors in Ruston to bring FREAUX YEAUX to the Peach Paradise.  Located at 1522 N. Trenton Street next to the Super One Grocery Store, Orange Leaf's location couldn't be better! "Picking the right location was very important for us," said Karen Varner, co-owner of OL Ruston.  "We knew Ruston was the right town to bring the next Orange Leaf, and once we found this location, all the pieces fell into place!" shared Varner.  The Ruston Orange Leaf will be the 12th franchised location in the state of Louisiana. 

Orange & Peach, The New IT Couple?  Come see us on Halloween and judge for yourself! (and by the way, there DEFINITELY will be PEACH and ORANGE Freaux Yeaux on hand!)

Remember

Showering, Leaf Style

It's been a veritable baby boom at Orange Leaf Louisiana as of late.  Already forming the ITTY BITTY ORANGE COMMITTEE, it seems like something might be in the Freaux Yeaux.  Since our last blog, we have had two more employees, our bookeeper, and our regional manager have the best news possible; that they are expecting!  Kathryn, our OLYLA bookeeper, whose homebase is in Lafayette, is actually expecting TWINS and has just found out that they are a BOY and a GIRL!

Kayla with a gift

Kayla, our regional manager, who started out managing our New Iberia store, is having a BOY in November.  Her faithful New Iberia LEAFERS wanted to throw her a baby shower and couldn't think of a more perfect spot than ORANGE LEAF!  Homemade Cupcakes, Cocktail Weiners, and Mexican 7 layer dip was the menu this morning as Kayla opened her presents with her faithful Leafers looking on.  For most, this is their first job, and Kayla has been a mentor to them.  They just wanted to give back.  Baby games were played and prizes were won.  It was a FUN morning and a great way to show Kayla how much she means to these kids.  The mark of a great manager is garnering the respect of your employees, and Kayla has done that and much more.  In our opinion, this is a great indication on what type of mother she will soon be!  Completely AWESOME! We can't wait for the next member to be inducted into the ITTY BITTY ORANGE COMMITEE.  See you soon, Baby Baker!
