Venti cup of whipped cream (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by Otter1015
We have this group of girls that come in after school several times a week. One of them has recently started asking for a venti cup of whipped cream and a spoon (because she just wants to eat the whip out of the cup). This is not the same thing as a squirt of whip in a pup cup. This is a lot of product to give for free, and it’s unclear how we should charge for this. Suggestions?

It’s honestly up to you and your manager/supervisor. Mine would say, ring up a venti water and “add dairy” to it..it’s 60 cents but it covers it. If that makes sense.

I'm not sure what policy would be there, other than MtMR. I agree about asking your manager, that's the best course of action.

Maybe ring in a tall cup of cold milk in a venti cup, make it heavy cream, add vanilla, ASK ME it's whipped cream? Not as nice as your suggestion, but handles inventory pretty well & does the same labour charge that the "custom iced tea" thing does for water + ingredient

There was a note in a weekly update a month or so ago reminding everyone that we don’t sell individual drink components. Instead, these items must be rung up as a custom iced tea, so I would do that with no tea base, no ice, no water, add extra whip.

The number of times I've just dumped a full canister of whip cream at night... I don't really care if people do this. Better them than the sink.
Charging them 60 cents is probably fine and if they can't handle that then they shouldn't be there.

I’ve literally never done this at my current store. We have the opposite problem, we definitely charge for heavy cream🤷‍♀️
