When the 3PM energy drop hits, trading your computer screen for something delicious is the best way to hit reset. Whether you are craving a warm, buttery pastry, a freshly blended fruit hit, or a chewy sweet treat, here are five irresistible afternoon pick-me-ups worth stepping away for.
Mochi Donuts
These Japanese-style mochi donuts deliver that famous crisp outer shell with a satisfyingly chewy center. From classic glazed ring donuts to rich chocolate drizzled and coated varieties, there is a style to match any sweet craving alongside your favorite drink.
Three Beans Cafe
When you want a classic afternoon pairing done right, a warm, house-baked muffin straight from a rich, freshly pulled espresso for an easy, grounding break.
Top Juice
A cup of ripe, juicy strawberries drenched in melted chocolate makes for an ideal sweet bite, while a rich protein smoothie carries you through to dinner. For a lighter option, creamy fruit yogurts and sliced fruit tubs offer a wholesome alternative.
Bakers Delight
Combining the flaky layers of a croissant with the rich center of a muffin, the KitKat custard cruffin is an afternoon staple. Crisp, golden pastry gives way to smooth custard and chocolate crunch for a sweet mid-day bite.
Delisse
Bringing traditional French patisserie style straight to your coffee break, golden almond croissants are layered with rich frangipane and topped with toasted flaked almonds. Match one with a smooth, freshly brewed coffee for a buttery slice of Paris during your workday pause.
