Main Street Gets a New Bakery

Downtown Greenville now has a new bakery, The Chocolate Moose.   The Chocolate Moose is owned by Kristen Kuhlke Cobb, the owner of Cupcake, a successful cupcakery with locations in Mt. Pleasant, Charleston, and Columbia.  One of my favorite flavors from Cupcake Columbia was their salted caramel chocolate, so when I found out yesterday that they had them available at The Chocolate Moose, I made an impromptu trip down Main St.  (The impromptu-ness of my trip explains the poor quality of pictures.  I only had the camera on my phone.  Sorry!)

Cake Pops- dipped in dark and white chocolate

The store is beautifully designed, and has plenty of seating inside and out.  Its brick walls are adorned with bright pictures and funky chandeliers are hanging from the ceiling.  Their product line is slightly expanded from the other Cupcake stores as well.  They still do offer all five everyday flavors and four specialty flavors of cupcakes, but they also have cake pops, Chocolate Moose Pies, Tira Moose-Sue, Salted Caramel Banana Pudding, assorted pie pops, and other baked goodies. To see which cupcakes The Chocolate Moose offers by day of the week, click here.  All items are very reasonably priced, with almost everything under $3.00 including tax.

So now back to my salted caramel chocolate cupcake...

It's a chocolate cake with caramel cream cheese icing, dipped in a sugar and salt mixture, and topped with caramel.  It's okay if you're salivating, I am too. 

 

The Chocolate Moose is located at 120 N. Main in downtown Greenville.  They're open 8am-8pm Monday-Wednesday, 8am-10pm Thursday-Saturday, and 11-5 on Sunday.
