Earthquake Hurricane Relief
Dear Friends,
September is here and hopefully it means and end to the horrible heat wave we've experienced in Southern California. Fall is one of my favorite seasons, we love the colors, harvest festivals, and the start of the Holiday Season.

Earthquake-Hurricane Fund-Raiser
Before we continue, we want to Thank all of those who have made a purchase in the past month. Part of your purchase will be donated to victims of the Peruvian Earthquake.
It really means a great deal to have received so many well wishes for our family. As you may all know, our families live in Peru and Nicaragua, home of our coffee beans, and the South. This year, nature has given us a double punch first in Peru and now in Nicaragua, and though none of our family member have been directly impacted by either natural disasters, there are thousands of others who were less fortunate. The least we can do, is contribute to the relief efforts and pray for those members of the Human Family who have been impacted.
Split Bean Coffee will extend it's fund raising campaign until December. We will donate $1.00 from each sale to the Peruvian Quake Victims, and $1.00 to the victims of Hurricane Felix in Nicaragua.

Flavor of The Month
This month we are featuring a Peruvian Favorite - Lucuma. Lucuma is a fruit native to South America and available only in a small area from Ecuador to Chile. Peruvians make all kinds of delicious desserts including alfajores and frozen treats.
We are also featuring our Signature Flavor - Pumpkin Marshmallow. These marshmallows are great for topping sweet potato casseroles, making White Chocolate S'mores, or topping a cup of hot-cocoa or coffee. Best of all, they are Fat-Free!
