If you’ve been to the shop over the past couple of weeks you may have noticed the way we refer to our scoop sizing has changed. Since we opened in 2022 we have referred to our scoops based on serving size, not the exact quantity of scoops you were getting — single was meant to mean “single serving” not one literal scoop. We were constantly clarifying exactly what the portion sizes were and it often left customers even more confused. After 4 years of clarifying portions, we decided to just switch to saying “one, two, and three scoops” to make it more clear on exactly how much you’re getting when you order. We know this might make things confusing for our regulars, but we’re hoping over time this verbiage switch up makes sense. 😅🙏🏻 thanks for your patience and understanding while we navigate this menu change and the hiccups that might accompany it.  Mini Scoop > One Scoop (one flavor)
Single Scoop > Two Scoops (up to two flavors)
Double Scoop > Three Scoops (up to three flavors)
