At Tampa Maid Foods, our monthly Cup of Culture is more than coffee and a quick bite. Itโ€™s a moment to slow down, connect, and strengthen the culture that makes us who we are. These casual gatherings spark conversations, build relationships across teams, and remind us that our people are at the heart of everything we do.

Some of our team is heading to Chicago for the National Restaurant Show this weekend. And we couldnโ€™t be more excited.

Join us at Club Metamorphosis this Sunday, May 17, where guests will experience an elevated dessert creation: Cookie Dough Grove, featuring our new Fried Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Bites.

The Connections culinary team has brought this concept to life with an elevated and creative presentation. Our new bites are dusted in vibrant matcha-pistachio โ€œmoss,โ€ nestled on a forest floor of rich chocolate soil, and finished with honey popping pearls. Itโ€™s as inventive as it is indulgent.

Weโ€™re looking forward to connecting, collaborating, and sharing something sweet along the way. See you in Chicago!
