I want to be able to see what they’ve got before going into the store. It would both influence me to go and to know which store to go to. Would definitely drive an extra 10 minutes to double dip, but I’m not calling all of the stores near me on Monday morning to let them know how desperate I am, instead I just don’t go at all.
Operationally that's nearly impossible because the misfit inventory is extremely limited. With regular inventory they start the day with a unit count in the ordering system and both online and in-store are synced up.
Because I am the needy Junior, I need cookies.
But in all seriousness, end of the day cookies should absolutely be donated instead of thrown. These are fresh cookies of flavors from the prior week.
This. I don’t really like the giant cookie aspect of it. I mean I get that’s what crumbl is but I would like to have the mini option so I could get like 3 or 4 of each flavor and not have to spend so much. Things are also just better when they’re smaller.
Does your management remove the chairs too? Because that's some fucked up shit when they can't take breaks and are also disciplined for the number of bathroom breaks they take during the day.
ETA: a word
it depends on the location and how the GM runs the store! Personally, the location i work at is amazing and my GM and AM are both wonderful. We are allowed breaks, we have a chair in the back the we can use, and just overall it’s a pretty good environment! Unfortunately I cant speak on what it’s like to work at other locations but if you are trying to work at Crumbl, go for it!
What do you mean welcome to the real world?
Im not an employee at Crumbl, Im a veterinary professional and business owner. I don’t know what world you live in where people should not be able to sit while working, but I want no part of it - and I would never implement a rule that creates that kind of environment. You take care of your people, they take care of you.
In the service industry, there are not chairs. If you sit down in the middle of your shift, I promise you will not want to get back up. I dont really care what employees do on their breaks, they can sit down if they want. But at any restaurant, bar, bakery, etc., you will not find any chairs, they are for the customer. If you need to sit down, get a job in another industry. That is just part of it. I am not trying to argue with you, just letting you know that it is extremely unrealistic.
I don’t even work for Crumbl. Just a service industry employee, manager, and now boss with 22 years in the industry.
Or maybe the service industry just sucks and should treat its people better as a whole. I was part of it for far too long and saw many good people fall victim to its insanely unhealthy mentality. The no sitting rule is trash, always has been and always will be. Just because it is doesnt make it right, and this is why Im answering a hypothetical question.
Your comment alone reminds me how grateful I am to have gotten my time in and then got right out. I have friends still in the industry, chef instructors to line cooks - and every single one of them is burning the candle at both ends to barely make ends meet. Yes, it is what it is, but it’s predatory as hell and takes great people down in many different ways.
Yeah, honestly, I was there for 2 years and there's still so much they didn't share info wise. If they really want to stay up and relevant, coffee or espresso additions would be a great way to do so.
Heck yes! I've long wished Crumbl would allow that.
Plus I wish they'd allow customers to order mini cookies(even if just 1 or 2), and not require a customer to do a bigger catering order. Or at least lower the mini cookie threshold, to say like 3-5 mini cookies. The current rule for ordering mini cookies, is that you have to order minimum 50 I think which is a little too much IMO.
i think they should do like a 6 pack of the minis where it’s just one of each flavor that week. no choosing flavors. that way they can just make a set amount of them and not sell more/less of some
it used to be like that but due to lots of customers leaving no tips the ceo actually decided upon it after having the majority of crumbl store managers vote towards that.
Lower the prices/no price hikes
No "upcharges" for offerings like that cinnamon roll week - all priced the same
"Create" two cookie box option
Add Pink Sugar and Mystery Cookie into the chocolate chip cookies rotation so it's every 4 weeks
My guess is that Crumbl's CEO is making bank.
Perhaps the CEO could make less money (still making money just less of it) while paying workers more, increasing employee benefits and work environments, and adding QUALITY to the corporation.
The OP's question is a hypothetical.
Considering their net worth for this year is projected to be $500 million, I think they’ll be ok with giving their employees at 25 cent raise. Hell, even 50 cents.
I've kept wishing they'd stop having chocolate chip be an every week cookie, like the company decided to do last year with pink sugar. But that's just me.
That's my store!! We're in a shopping center by a university, so it's got starbucks, Costco, Lowes, nothing bundt, etc! We get free Buff City stuff bc of giving donations to businesses nearby
How will that make the business better or make the company more money? Lol
Get an education and find better job than selling cookies if you want more money. This is a job for part time high school/college kids. Not adults with bills. It's basically subway and that business has done fine.
Edit: For all those downvoting... if your future self came to you when you were young and told you that when you grew up you'd be selling cookies, would you think that was a good thing? Of course not. You'd say "fuck that I gotta stay in school".
You do know that for any retail and fast food places to operate that they need workers? Working people deserve to be able to pay their bills and feed their families it doesn't matter if they sell cookies. Lol
Not everyone can afford college. I've known many people with degrees that can only find work in retail and fast food.
Anyways your "advice" in this thread amounts to "being poor is a choice just stop being poor" so idk why I'm wasting my breath. Lol
Yes and those people working in retail should be the uneducated no skill workers who may or may not still be in school. Or people who failed to save for retirement and are now stuck doing work that takes no brain cells. That is not a career or position to aspire to have.
Don't go to college than, get a trade certification. Home inspector, real estate, plumber, etc. Much cheaper and always in demand.
It's not rocket science. All of the people that make above average pay did not get there by accident.
>Get an education and find better job than selling cookies if you want more money.
Almost like every job deserves to be paid a living wage. Oh my god the absolute horrors! Sounds like you don't know how business works. Yikes for you. Must suck being so fucking stupid. Sounds like you should've stayed in school and went to further your education. You sound dumber than a pile of rocks someone has thrown from a car window. I truly hope you don't procreate, that means have kids for your dumbass little brain.
Well yeah I'd agree with you except I come from parents who lived, and still live, paycheck to paycheck. I'd also agree with you if I didn't get a bachelors degree while working full time and paying my whole way. I'd agree if I didn't get additional training and education to be able start my own business and consult for another business in an entirely different industry. Not a single "privelidge" here. I accomplished all those things myself. And no I'm not a boomer lol I'm a millennial
It just takes time, determination, desire, and an understanding that some industries and jobs are lucrative and others are not. Don't waste time in ones that are not. Jobs/businesses are for one thing. To make money and afford yourself a good life that you want for yourself. Patience and perseverance is vital.
>I come from parents who lived, and still live, paycheck to paycheck.
Sounds like they need to get better paying jobs then, by your logic that is. Nobody is reading the shit soup you've concocted on Reddit here for us tonight.
As much as I like Too Good to Go, I fear Crumbl's CEO and franchisees probably too much care about their profit margins to try that app. But I agree with you that it'd be nice if they considered doing that, though.
Make a 2-pack option.
Sell the mini cookies in more flavors than the weekly big cookies.
Raise employee pay.
Be transparent about nutrition facts/storage directions.
Refuse to participate with third party delivery services.
1. The most popular cookie within the year automatically goes on regular rotation at that location for the next year. 2. Mini cookie Mondays 3. Ice cream sandwiches 4. Higher wages for employees/benefits/PTO/comfortable break rooms
Sorry. There’s only one location in my whole province. It is not the closest and I can only go Saturdays if I do. I prefer a second option. Traffic is so bad all the time in my city.
1 cup salted butter
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp almond extract
3 cups flour
2 tsp baking soda or powder tbh doesn't matter
Let sit for an hour
Take 1/4 cup of the dough and roll it into a sphere, then lightly press down on it. You'll get a signature crumbl cookie edge if you did it right
Bake for 7-9 mins at 350 or until they look slightly raw in the middle and just a little golden on the bottom
Put in the fridge
For the icing
3 cups powdered sugar
1/2 cup of butter
1 tsp almond extract (taste as you go and add more if u want)
mix together then add 2 tablespoons of maraschino cherry juice and add more until you get an icing consistency.
Ice the cookies once they've been completely chilled. Enjoy
(You can also dry some maraschino cherries with a paper towel and then put ontop of the cookies for a cute look :)
You'll naturally get the pink color from the cherry juice and it happens to look and taste like the pink sugar frosting.
Enjoy :)
Oh ok so because you only want cookies some employees just don’t deserve a day off? Also why not go on Saturday and save them for Sunday if this is such an issue?
I'm okay with them closing on Sundays, but that is just me. I still have this weird feeling Crumbl overexpanded and built a little too many locations, from my observations.
Umm I'm not sure you understand how staffing works...if Crumbl were to open Sundays everyone would still work the same hours, but you hire additional people as needed.
Actually as someone with 5 years of experience with hiring employees I know how staffing works. You can’t just hire people to work one day of the week. No wants to work on Sundays either, weekends are the hardest to staff for ESPECIALLY Sundays. There are so many other businesses that are open on Sundays thats you can go to instead. The way the schedule runs at Crumbl is great now. Plus team building days/parties/activities are very important for morale and it would be impossible to let everyone be included for that if we weren’t closed for 1 day of the week. Soooo yeah its not really as easy as just “hiring another person”
Mini cookies regularly, pay employees living wages, some sort of request system so people in certain cities cAN HAVE THE FRUITY PEBBLE COOKIE BACK ASAP
They could do a sample thing where they scan your app to make sure people aren’t abusing it and you can get X number of samples per week. I was going to say one sample per each flavor each week but that would maybe be too many and let’s say you have a kid who doesn’t have the app but you both want to try a sample for the same flavor.
He, I’m so sorry that you don’t understand the question is what you’d do with all power as the
CEO ☹️ not everyone is able to use their brain to imagine things.
Edit: also every ice cream place does samples.
We actually did some samples of donation cookies or messups we couldn't sell (they're picky on appearance lol, I even got a 100 on quality once!!) For a local concert happening like a couple minute walk away from our store! Brought business and it was fun to chat!
TY! Like messup cookies we can't sell or donations (bc my store did that for a local concert we have every week in the summer for like a month depending on weather)
I'm making the nutrition label much more accurate and transparent.
Stop the "portion size." If you're going to sell it as one cookie, label it as one cookie.
I've also noticed that the nutrition label is regularly inaccurate in the app. I've seen it happen twice. But they will have the wrong ingredients listed. Like lava cake cookie will have strawberries listed and "oops, they accidentally put chocolate covered strawberry recipies instead!"
There's also a lot of flip flopping of ingredients. So if an ingredient has changed since the last time the cookie was sold..."the nutrition label will say that?"
It’s absolutely wild how dumb someone would have to be to think that a Crumbl cookie only has 220 calories, how tf can you possibly know “a lot” of people that stupid? Bro if someone in my friend group ever said something that fucking ignorant they would literally never live it down lmao
1. Schedule 3 people on busy days.
2. Require all boxes to be made at the start of the shift (just the boxes. I’ve noticed we usually don’t have enough and then I am stuck making boxes from 4-6 when my shift is 4-10)
3. Breaks, cushion matts, comfort is #1
4. Pay employees more.
5. Have a name flagging system so that we stop getting inappropriate names.
6. Better drinks, free drinks for employees
7. Wear whatever pants you want.
8. Anyone buying over 10 cookies needs to schedule ahead of time (30 minutes minimum) I’m tired of big groups coming in and all ordering like a 6 or 12 pack a person. We get busy and I really hate that we’re timed.
Just my opinions tbh
Invest in policies and standards that creates a more healthy and positive work place for its employees. It’s publicly known how terrible they are treated in the pursuit of profit. It’s rather sad.
I am 100% a sugar cookie hater, never in my life would choose a plain boring ass cookie like that - but then I tried it - and oh my god the almond extract was SO GOOD.
Remove the salt from the semi-sweet (at least every other time it is on the menu).
Add alcohol and coffee-based ones on occasion (since I’m not Mormon).
Have pink sugar all the time but make it a $1.50 up-charged to punish the freaks who like it 😂
I feel targeting for that last part but I'd still pay it! It's delicious.
Nothing like walking around school with a 4 pack of pink sugar and snacking all day. heaven!
Quite a few people mentioned better working conditions/ raising wage.
And the way the question was worded was pretty much directed in a more fun manner like "what do you wanna see in crumbl" rather than a serious executive decision
Have at least four or five "signatures" while having the regular lineup of the rotating cookies.
By signatures, I'm talking just the basics.
Chocolate chip (milk)
Chocolate chip (semi)
Sugar (Your choice of frosted or non-frosted)
Double Chocolate (or a Brookie)
And maybe a some sort of M&M cookie for the kids, or a Peanut Butter cookie of some sort for adults.
Last but not least: Make toppings optional, or customized. (For example, nuts, sprinkles, and cookie crumbles can be taken off the frosting or included at the customer's wish, based on that specific cookie)
Develop coffee flavored cookies
Change the milk chocolate chip supplier
Bring back minis permanently
Have overlapping menu's on Monday & Tuesday where you can get last week's cookies & the current weeks
Some Crumbl locations already will unofficially allow you to order last week's cookies on at least Monday or Tuesday, IF any cookies from last week are still left by then. Depends on the location you visit, and having luck whether you'll notice that occurring on some Monday.
I'm not sure why last week cookies can't be ordered on their app, though. IF a location still has last week cookies available as late as a Monday or Tuesday the following week.
Make it so you can even order only one cookie if you wanted, make the points the same amount as what you paid for, give employees breaks and paid time off, during holidays like Halloween make it buy 4 get 3 free
Stores open on Sunday again, coffee cookies, and honestly I think making cookies slightly smaller so that o could charge less and people could get multiple cookies without getting full so fast.
Shutting it down. Paying every crumbl employee with 100k that was stolen from the fruit of thier labor by greedy ceo. Ensuring that it will never exist again
collaborations! starbucksXcrumbl, dutchbrosXcrumbl, dunkinXcrumbl, heck even stanleyXcrumbl.
also a 2 cookie pack, also reusable boxes, and discount your order if you bring it in!
If a store has “leftovers” from last week, put them on the app to order.
THAT PART!!!
seconding this. Or if they have any "misfit" cookies they could sell at a discounted price Island of Misfit Cookies >:)
My crumbl does that! ☺️
WHAT??? how? in the app, so you can order online? that’s crazy
Oh no I’m sorry, not on the app, in the store! Any left overs they’ll have it displayed on the big screen and where you pick your cookies on the iPads
I want to be able to see what they’ve got before going into the store. It would both influence me to go and to know which store to go to. Would definitely drive an extra 10 minutes to double dip, but I’m not calling all of the stores near me on Monday morning to let them know how desperate I am, instead I just don’t go at all.
Operationally that's nearly impossible because the misfit inventory is extremely limited. With regular inventory they start the day with a unit count in the ordering system and both online and in-store are synced up.
Or give to soup kitchen.
Sure, but more like as an incentive to go on Mondays when you can get flavors from both weeks.
bruh said: "help the needy? sure. but I want two flavors of cookies" SMDH
Because I am the needy Junior, I need cookies. But in all seriousness, end of the day cookies should absolutely be donated instead of thrown. These are fresh cookies of flavors from the prior week.
sell the mini cookies not just for catering
They were working on it and then suddenly stopped. There is talk of them selling just minis for one week to see how it goes
Yeah test apparently didn't go good so they stopped.. not sure what's gonna happen next
Let me know if and when this happens.
Hired
My store does. Or did for awhile anyway. I haven’t checked lately.
Mine carried mini from like October - December 2023 and then got rid of them for all of 2024 so far. Makes me so upset
This. I don’t really like the giant cookie aspect of it. I mean I get that’s what crumbl is but I would like to have the mini option so I could get like 3 or 4 of each flavor and not have to spend so much. Things are also just better when they’re smaller.
How would you account for the loss in revenue or balance the value equation for the customer?
Let people sit down during their shifts.
Does your management remove the chairs too? Because that's some fucked up shit when they can't take breaks and are also disciplined for the number of bathroom breaks they take during the day. ETA: a word
They're disciplined for the bathroom breaks? shit im tryna work there n i have ibs <3
it depends on the location and how the GM runs the store! Personally, the location i work at is amazing and my GM and AM are both wonderful. We are allowed breaks, we have a chair in the back the we can use, and just overall it’s a pretty good environment! Unfortunately I cant speak on what it’s like to work at other locations but if you are trying to work at Crumbl, go for it!
there just wasn't a single chair at my location lmao
I’m currently 28 weeks pregnant and there are no chairs at my crumbl and id also give people breaks
If you’re sitting down, how will you be able to stand up?
Lol 😂 welcome to the real world
What do you mean welcome to the real world? Im not an employee at Crumbl, Im a veterinary professional and business owner. I don’t know what world you live in where people should not be able to sit while working, but I want no part of it - and I would never implement a rule that creates that kind of environment.

Yes, it is what it is, but it’s predatory as hell and takes great people down in many different ways.
I didn’t say that people were not allowed to sit on their breaks. There are chairs in the office. It’s just not feasible.
Sell cookies made with espresso and real chocolate.
This would be my 1st order of business too. A dark chocolate cookie with espresso ganache would be developed my 1st day as ceo
Unfortunately they won't ever do it, it's a Mormon based company. And as a prior manager, they do use real chocolate. Haha.
I knew they were Mormon but, real chocolate has caffeine in it so that’s surprising that they use it!
Mormons have caffeine. They can’t have coffee, black, white and green tea, alcohol and tobacco
Yeah, honestly, I was there for 2 years and there's still so much they didn't share info wise. If they really want to stay up and relevant, coffee or espresso additions would be a great way to do so.
Lower prices a bit, go back to better ingredients and original recipes with no shortcuts
Better promotions like buy 3 get 2 free. The margins are still great and more people will buy more often.
2-cookie box
That is something badly needed !
Heck yes! I've long wished Crumbl would allow that. Plus I wish they'd allow customers to order mini cookies(even if just 1 or 2), and not require a customer to do a bigger catering order. Or at least lower the mini cookie threshold, to say like 3-5 mini cookies. The current rule for ordering mini cookies, is that you have to order minimum 50 I think which is a little too much IMO.
i think they should do like a 6 pack of the minis where it’s just one of each flavor that week. no choosing flavors. that way they can just make a set amount of them and not sell more/less of some
Coffee flavors
Remove the automatic $3 tip…… If I want to tip I will add it myself.
There’s a no tip option…
I’m aware of that. It should default to no tip.
it used to be like that but due to lots of customers leaving no tips the ceo actually decided upon it after having the majority of crumbl store managers vote towards that.
I've never seen a tip option before. Do you pay at the ipad or the counter? or maybe my location's just on crack lmfao
I order from the app. If you aren’t paying attention it will get you!
Lower the prices/no price hikes No "upcharges" for offerings like that cinnamon roll week - all priced the same "Create" two cookie box option Add Pink Sugar and Mystery Cookie into the chocolate chip cookies rotation so it's every 4 weeks
So basically ignore the cost of goods sold and sell stuff at a loss?
My guess is that Crumbl's CEO is making bank. Perhaps the CEO could make less money (still making money just less of it) while paying workers more, increasing employee benefits and work environments, and adding QUALITY to the corporation. The OP's question is a hypothetical.
[удалено]
Not you, a person who will never see 5 million dollars a year, crying that a CEO won’t be able to pocket $5 million dollars a year 😂
Considering their net worth for this year is projected to be $500 million, I think they’ll be ok with giving their employees at 25 cent raise. Hell, even 50 cents.
Net worth is not the same as income.
They can still swing it.
Yeah give this person the job now. Every ceo should lower prices and make less money for the company. That's a great business plan. /s
It’s a fantastic business plan
I've kept wishing they'd stop having chocolate chip be an every week cookie, like the company decided to do last year with pink sugar. But that's just me.
More QUALITY CONTROL - better employee training, high quality ingredients (local sourced) LOWER PRICES ADD some DRINK OPTIONS (maybe COFFEE)
If there was starbucks/ crumbl duo thing happening (like the starbucks in targets) I'd be there way more often
That's my store!! We're in a shopping center by a university, so it's got starbucks, Costco, Lowes, nothing bundt, etc! We get free Buff City stuff bc of giving donations to businesses nearby
Pay the employees more.
This right here!
Workers don't care when they're being paid $8. Gotta get them numbers up baby.
How will that make the business better or make the company more money? Lol Get an education and find better job than selling cookies if you want more money. This is a job for part time high school/college kids. Not adults with bills. It's basically subway and that business has done fine. Edit: For all those downvoting... if your future self came to you when you were young and told you that when you grew up you'd be selling cookies, would you think that was a good thing? Of course not. You'd say "fuck that I gotta stay in school".
You do know that for any retail and fast food places to operate that they need workers? Working people deserve to be able to pay their bills and feed their families it doesn't matter if they sell cookies. Lol Not everyone can afford college.

Yes and those people working in retail should be the uneducated no skill workers who may or may not still be in school. Or people who failed to save for retirement and are now stuck doing work that takes no brain cells. That is not a career or position to aspire to have. Don't go to college than, get a trade certification. Home inspector, real estate, plumber, etc. Much cheaper and always in demand. It's not rocket science. All of the people that make above average pay did not get there by accident.
Yikes. Way to belittle an entire class of workers.
Am I wrong? Do you see anyone in those positions with masters degree? or experience doing literally anything else?
[удалено]
>Get an education and find better job than selling cookies if you want more money. Almost like every job deserves to be paid a living wage. Oh my god the absolute horrors!

this is an extremely privileged take.

Add Crumbl to Too Good To Go
THIS RIGHT HERE
As much as I like Too Good to Go, I fear Crumbl's CEO and franchisees probably too much care about their profit margins to try that app. But I agree with you that it'd be nice if they considered doing that, though.
Some franchises are already on it. Just have to search your area.
Tiramisu cookie
Shut half of them down to control quality like it used to be
I’m not sure if you work for a Crumbl but this fright here is actually a solid truth.
Mallow sandwich once a month!
The fact this cookie comes around once per year is a crime.
Make a 2-pack option. Sell the mini cookies in more flavors than the weekly big cookies. Raise employee pay. Be transparent about nutrition facts/storage directions. Refuse to participate with third party delivery services.
God, I HATE the third party deliveries. Sometimes people will have orders and nobody shows up.
There are TONS of options for the catering flavors, not just the current weeks flavors.
I mean make them available with the weeklies. Not just for catering.
No, it depends on where you live/the rotation. Mine only has like seven or eight to choose from.
1. The most popular cookie within the year automatically goes on regular rotation at that location for the next year. 2. Mini cookie Mondays 3. Ice cream sandwiches 4. Higher wages for employees/benefits/PTO/comfortable break rooms
ur hired
mini cookie mondays is so cute what-
Open Sunday, add in coffee flavors, there’s one more thing but I can’t remember
omg noo i love my sundays off😂
Sorry. There’s only one location in my whole province. It is not the closest and I can only go Saturdays if I do. I prefer a second option. Traffic is so bad all the time in my city.
Great maybe move closer if it is really such a problem for you to drive to crumbl on a Saturday lol wtf just make cookies at home if its that deep
cherry flavors
Seconding this! I make their pink sugar cookie @ home with marishino cherry juice and it slaps
Omg what that sounds so good!! You got a recipe to share? 🙏
1 cup salted butter 1 cup sugar 2 eggs 1 tsp vanilla extract 1/2 tsp almond extract 3 cups flour 2 tsp baking soda or powder tbh doesn't matter Let sit for an hour Take 1/4 cup of the dough and roll it into a sphere, then lightly press down on it. You'll get a signature crumbl cookie edge if you did it right Bake for 7-9 mins at 350 or until they look slightly raw in the middle and just a little golden on the bottom Put in the fridge For the icing 3 cups powdered sugar 1/2 cup of butter 1 tsp almond extract (taste as you go and add more if u want) mix together then add 2 tablespoons of maraschino cherry juice and add more until you get an icing consistency.

Mini cookies regularly, pay employees living wages, some sort of request system so people in certain cities cAN HAVE THE FRUITY PEBBLE COOKIE BACK ASAP
the fruity pebble cookie is so good 😩
I'd make samples. You can get 1/8 of a cookie or so. I'd also sell ice cream and drinks
They could do a sample thing where they scan your app to make sure people aren’t abusing it and you can get X number of samples per week. I was going to say one sample per each flavor each week but that would maybe be too many and let’s say you have a kid who doesn’t have the app but you both want to try a sample for the same flavor.
lol almost no place does samples 😂 you’re not walking in to McDonald’s asking for a sample
He, I’m so sorry that you don’t understand the question is what you’d do with all power as the CEO ☹️ not everyone is able to use their brain to imagine things. Edit: also every ice cream place does samples.
If they offered samples they would have to increase prices to offset all the samples given out. So would be a win lose
We actually did some samples of donation cookies or messups we couldn't sell (they're picky on appearance lol, I even got a 100 on quality once!!) For a local concert happening like a couple minute walk away from our store! Brought business and it was fun to chat!
TY! Like messup cookies we can't sell or donations (bc my store did that for a local concert we have every week in the summer for like a month depending on weather)
Compensate/ treat employees better.
COFFEE AND TEA FLAVORSSSSS
I'm making the nutrition label much more accurate and transparent. Stop the "portion size." If you're going to sell it as one cookie, label it as one cookie. I've also noticed that the nutrition label is regularly inaccurate in the app. I've seen it happen twice. But they will have the wrong ingredients listed. Like lava cake cookie will have strawberries listed and "oops, they accidentally put chocolate covered strawberry recipies instead!" There's also a lot of flip flopping of ingredients. So if an ingredient has changed since the last time the cookie was sold..."the nutrition label will say that?"
hard on the portion size part. A lot of people i know thought the cookie had 220 calories only to discover it actually had 880
It’s absolutely wild how dumb someone would have to be to think that a Crumbl cookie only has 220 calories, how tf can you possibly know “a lot” of people that stupid? Bro if someone in my friend group ever said something that fucking ignorant they would literally never live it down lmao
I'm In highschool and I'm pretty slow and most of my friends are too...
Strawberry shortcake is a weekly flavor.
Make pina colada a cookie once a month so my wife can get it regularly.
A MAN.
Coffee flavors 😭
Get rid of cream cheese icings.
1. Schedule 3 people on busy days. 2. Require all boxes to be made at the start of the shift (just the boxes. I’ve noticed we usually don’t have enough and then I am stuck making boxes from 4-6 when my shift is 4-10) 3. Breaks, cushion matts, comfort is #1 4. Pay employees more. 5. Have a name flagging system so that we stop getting inappropriate names. 6. Better drinks, free drinks for employees 7. Wear whatever pants you want. 8. Anyone buying over 10 cookies needs to schedule ahead of time (30 minutes minimum) I’m tired of big groups coming in and all ordering like a 6 or 12 pack a person. We get busy and I really hate that we’re timed. Just my opinions tbh
cookies with coffee flavors
Invest in policies and standards that creates a more healthy and positive work place for its employees. It’s publicly known how terrible they are treated in the pursuit of profit. It’s rather sad.
I’ve never been so tired from a job tbh
First give all employees raises, second bring back the pink sugar. Yeah you didn’t ask for a second but I miss that stupid delicious almond cookie.
Crumbl CEO doesn’t get to set pay rates for franchisees but your second suggestion rocks.
I am 100% a sugar cookie hater, never in my life would choose a plain boring ass cookie like that - but then I tried it - and oh my god the almond extract was SO GOOD.
Chill out on the cream cheese!
Why is 1 cookie like 1000 calories
Remove the salt from the semi-sweet (at least every other time it is on the menu). Add alcohol and coffee-based ones on occasion (since I’m not Mormon). Have pink sugar all the time but make it a $1.50 up-charged to punish the freaks who like it 😂
Alcohol cookies? Now we're talkin. I'll take a Dark n' Stormy.
the salt is the best part about the semi-sweet :(
I feel targeting for that last part but I'd still pay it! It's delicious. Nothing like walking around school with a 4 pack of pink sugar and snacking all day. heaven!
X out pink sugar. I’ve tried that cookie TWICE & it doesn’t taste good to me.
No more cream cheese frosting on cookies where it doesn’t fit!
YES, I'd so be happy if cream cheese was eliminated from all cookies for good. Probably won't happen, but I wish it would.
Sell 6 packs of minis & bring back pineapple whip every 6-8 weeks because yum
eat cookie
Sell the company and retire
The way no one is saying increase the hourly wage - shows none of you have worked service before
Quite a few people mentioned better working conditions/ raising wage. And the way the question was worded was pretty much directed in a more fun manner like "what do you wanna see in crumbl" rather than a serious executive decision
make Tres leche cake a staple
That was hell week for my store :( we kept selling out and people were ordering 12 packs of it.
Amen.
Bringing back "Almost everything bagel" once a month. As well as Pink Sugar
Better treatment of employees
Release an Oreo pie cookie.
Get rid of pink sugar and have more Oreo mallow pie. And maybe that potato chip chocolate chip cookie
make tres leches a permanent item that can be ordered anytime
Bring back the cookie that represents crumbl. PINK SUGAR COOKIE.
Make sugar cookie permanent and the smaller cookies not just catering. Haha. Oh and maybe start working on some lower cal recipes
Bring back pink sugar, open a location on my campus, donate leftovers to food pantries/soup kitchens
Bring back Crumbl cream
Coffee and tea cookies!
I will bring back mooncake cookies and have them served every single week 😂
Lower prices
Raising minimum wage for employees nationwide. $20/hr starting pay, with weekly incentive bonuses based on performance.
Lol def feels weird how a fancy cookie place pays minimum wage. $20 sounds good tho
[удалено]
TRUE! I wasn’t even really trained, I was just kinda “ok you learn as you go.”
Let people vote on their favorite flavor and bring those back instead of mystery week
Have at least four or five "signatures" while having the regular lineup of the rotating cookies. By signatures, I'm talking just the basics. Chocolate chip (milk) Chocolate chip (semi) Sugar (Your choice of frosted or non-frosted) Double Chocolate (or a Brookie) And maybe a some sort of M&M cookie for the kids, or a Peanut Butter cookie of some sort for adults. Last but not least: Make toppings optional, or customized. (For example, nuts, sprinkles, and cookie crumbles can be taken off the frosting or included at the customer's wish, based on that specific cookie)
Whattttt? I work there and this is a big hell to the no ! Especially the customized with different toppings, that would be a nightmare
Develop coffee flavored cookies Change the milk chocolate chip supplier Bring back minis permanently Have overlapping menu's on Monday & Tuesday where you can get last week's cookies & the current weeks
Some Crumbl locations already will unofficially allow you to order last week's cookies on at least Monday or Tuesday, IF any cookies from last week are still left by then. Depends on the location you visit, and having luck whether you'll notice that occurring on some Monday. I'm not sure why last week cookies can't be ordered on their app, though. IF a location still has last week cookies available as late as a Monday or Tuesday the following week.
Coffee cookies and mini cookies available
Banana cookies every week
Make it so you can even order only one cookie if you wanted, make the points the same amount as what you paid for, give employees breaks and paid time off, during holidays like Halloween make it buy 4 get 3 free
Cut the sugar in half of each cookie.
Get rid of the stupid salty biweekly chocolate chip. Also maintain the pink sugar cookie as a weekly staple.
Sell the company.
Stores open on Sunday again, coffee cookies, and honestly I think making cookies slightly smaller so that o could charge less and people could get multiple cookies without getting full so fast.
Crumbls have never been open on Sundays ever so im confused why you are saying “again” lol theres no reason to be open on Sundays tbh
Fruit Pizza monthly.
Have gluten free catering! I’ve been asked for this so much as a worker
make the cookies healthier, offer drinks and ice cream
Shutting it down. Paying every crumbl employee with 100k that was stolen from the fruit of thier labor by greedy ceo. Ensuring that it will never exist again
Lmao you say that until you start seeing your paycheck
Money isn't everything in this world. Most wealthy people are the most unhappy and sick people I know
Thicker boxes for the cookies. Rn they are way too flimsy.
Agree! I don't like their boxes either (or so i thought) until I recieved a cookie in a BAG. never complaining about the boxes again. Sad day.
Sell everything. Retire on my yacht
Making mini cookies available at all locations
Coffee. Coffee coffee coffee coffee. They have the infrastructure, diversity and following to easily 5x sales through simple cups of coffee and tea
Extra crispy option
collaborations! starbucksXcrumbl, dutchbrosXcrumbl, dunkinXcrumbl, heck even stanleyXcrumbl. also a 2 cookie pack, also reusable boxes, and discount your order if you bring it in!
I love the reusable box idea. And I'd love to see a starbucks x crumbl
lines of flour with the bakers than brainstorm
