No Frap Base (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by milkybreadd
I’m on the east coast and we have ran out of frappuccino base in my whole district. They are now estimated to arrive 11/12 so no frappuccino until then! Wanted to know if it was happening to other areas as well.

West coast Bay Area, here. We ran out on Friday and aren’t expected to get it back until THANKSGIVING.

I’m in NYC and I’m off for the next few days but I hope we don’t have to make frappuccinos. I hate making them and I hate the dome lids. I’ve spilled multiple drinks trying to get those dome lids on the cup and them accidentally slipping beneath themselves. Ugh. I love bar but hate frappuccinos.

This happened to us yesterday, it was wonderful. By far one of the best shifts I’ve ever worked.

I’m here in sunny Southern California and we’ve been out since Saturday.

i used to get almost always frappucinos before i got hired, then i started drinking other things and now all i've wanted to get are frappucinos but we don't have the base (not on the east coast)

At my store, we are still required to make them with creme base because supposedly it doesn't affect the taste. 😐
interyx 2 points 1y ago
They're out of both. We haven't run out in mid South Atlantic yet but fingers crossed.

Edit it definitely does affect taste. We ran out of coffee base some months back and made this CF with extra base with creme base... The lady ran inside and yelled at us for making it with the wrong base. She hasn't come back.

Yes. My store ran out of coffee base and we had to make everything with cream base. Then that ran out and we had to do no Frappuccino’s for a whole day.

Last year my store was out of frap base for almost an entire month, it was truly glorious

There's an announcement about this on the hub. I read a few days ago someone in Arizona cheering the lack of Fraps. We still have some at my store in the Midwest. Regional outages, but widespread.
