Catering To You No Matter the Event!

Last week, our Orem, UT location of The Yard Milkshake Bar, owned and operated by Ben Canevari, catered their first corporate event! Every year, the employees of BILL get together to discuss a variety of goals and objectives for the upcoming year, fit with guest speakers and details of their product and where it's going. This year they were led by a long-time friend of Ben’s, Faith Morrow, making this an even sweeter occasion for our Orem location!

With even just a few options, the event goers were able to choose between sweet and savory, absolute classics, and perfectly paired combos! Ben and three of his loyal employees were on-site and ready to serve, prepping our S'mores, Strawberry Cheesecake, Peanut Butter Brownie Bliss, and Cereal Killer Specialty Sundaes. Just like when you visit us in store, BILL employees got to take their branded jars with them; not only to remember the event, but also to come check out The Yard again!

If you find yourself thinking about the last event you went to, and the lack of over-the-top desserts, not to worry! Our Orem location isn’t the only one that now offers catering services, Flowood, MS does too. For either location, you can contact them through phone or email to get the sweet details on how to elevate your next event!

Not near either of those locations?

We recommend reaching out to your local location and inquiring about the potential to cater your next event.

`From Paper to Palate: How The Yard Milkshake Bar Turns Student Drawings into Delicious Milkshake Specials

Ever wondered how your creative milkshake ideas could become reality? At The Yard Milkshake Bar, the magic is happening as 8th-grade students from Lindale Middle School submit their imaginative milkshake drawings to The Yard Milkshake Bar for a chance to see their concoction come to life as a monthly special. The lucky winner not only gets their dream shake on the menu for the month of June but also receives two free milkshakes at a location of their choice. Stay tuned to discover the delightful process of turning student artwork into delectable milkshake specials right before your eyes!

Lindale Middle School: Where the Magic Begins

The journey starts at Lindale Middle School, nestled in the heart of the community, where creativity flows as freely as the syrup in our shakes. Here, 8th-grade students were given the unique task of designing their own milkshake, combining flavors, toppings, and names into a drawing that could become the next big hit. Art teacher Donna King reached out to us at The Yard Milkshake Bar after visiting this past summer and noticing customers could submit shake recipe ideas. She incorporated this challenge into their curriculum, fostering a blend of artistry and marketing savvy in their students. With guidance and encouragement, these young creators learn about flavor profiles and the elements of an appealing product presentation.

The Voting Process

Once the students' drawings were collected, the most exciting part began: turning these imaginative concepts into actual milkshakes. The process is meticulous; each element from the student's vision is considered, from the base flavor to the most whimsical topping. Our team at The Yard Milkshake Bar analyzes the drawings for feasibility, flavor combinations, and visual appeal. The submissions were then posted on an Instagram poll to determine the winner of the competition.

The Winner

Though The Yard Milkshake Bar had a spread of milkshakes to choose from, the votes are finally in and the public decided on one special milkshake to be added to the June monthly specials: The Holy Cannoli! Look out for this winning concoction to be made into monthly specials coming this June!
