There's A New Spot For Sweets In PVD, So Text That Friend You Take Along On Foodie Adventures

See this content in the original post

Looking for a bright (or should I say sweet?) spot this oh-so-rainy Spring in the OS? We visited one yesterday afternoon in the capital city. Namely, the new WOOPS! at Providence Place.

Some of the macarons at the new WOOPS! at Providence Place

Started by four friends in NYC as a holiday pop-up of sorts, WOOPS! and their signature French style macarons have become wildly popular, expanding to over 17 states. The cheery and pastel-infused Providence location is brand new, having opened for business just last month. (It’s also independently owned, as is the case with their other boutique kiosk locations throughout the country.)

Yes, you can customize a box or a pyramid with your favorite flavors and colors.

We were invited there for a special tasting yesterday and the choices! Decisions, decisions…Their newest flavor is a Cotton Candy which looks delish and would probably be outstanding for your next food-based flat lay over on Insta too. After mulling over our many options, we went with an assortment that included: Red Velvet, Peanut Butter & Jelly, Mint Chocolate, Espresso Macchiato, Cookies & Cream, Rose, Honey Lavendar, Vanilla, and Lemon Tart. (For the record, my personal favs were the PB&J, Mint Choc, and Espresso Mach. Two words: Splurge Worthy.)

So many choices!

Build a box to bring back to the office as a treat for the team or grab a few for yourself for a snack with your mid-day cuppa coffee or tea. You can even order personalized ones with everything from THANK YOU to your corporate logo. Or how about a pyramid for that special event coming up? And don’t forget to get some for mom for May 12th - because Mother’s Day will be here before ya know it! They also have belgium waffles (We spied some adorable minis that were difficult to resist.), bottled waters, loose leaf teas, and greeting cards for all your staying hydrated and gifting needs.

Find WOOPS! at 1 Providence Place, Providece, RI 02903. (It’s right near the Apple Store on level 1.)
