There was good news and bad news when I stopped by Shake Shack earlier today to look at the custard calendar. (I checked the website around lunchtime but it wasn't up yet.) The good news: there were some new custards we might like, such as jelly donut. The bad news: no more chocolate hazelnut and no return of Christmas cookie. Sadness.
Monday - eggnog - As we mentioned when last year's custard calendar came out, we have tried this one but never wrote about it. A liked it but I didn't (but I'm not a fan of eggnog generally).
Tuesday - honey ricotta chestnut - A new one for us. It sounds very rich and heavy to me. A isn't sure what to expect - he thinks honey and chestnut would go well together, but wonders how the ricotta will fit in.
Wednesday - Uncle Danny's chocolate bourbon pie - Neither of us have had chocolate bourbon pie before and are intrigued to find out what this will be.
Thursday - sweet potato marshmallow - This sounds very sweet to both of us. Reminds A of Thanksgiving. I don't love sweet potato marshmallow pie/casserole so I'm not sure if I will like this.
Friday - jelly donut - Hopefully the jelly donut custard will involve Doughnut Plant doughnuts. And bear some resemblance to the Jelly's Last Donut concrete we love so much. That would be awesome.
Saturday - gingerbread - This one seems to come around every December. We reviewed it here - it was OK.
Sunday - candy cane crunch - Similar to last year, we think we've had this but there doesn't seem to be a post about it. Maybe we'll try it again.
We are looking forward to jelly donut the most this month. Hopefully it will live up to our expectations!
