Is anyone buying the Coconut Lime Bar? (self.starbucksbaristas)

submitted by lavender-skies-

It’s good but not “$4 for the tiniest bar” good. Since it came out, I’ve only seen a couple people buy it. I mean, I don’t even eat it and it’s free for me 💀
I feel like for that price, it should be more like the red velvet loaf – A marbled coconut/lime cake with white chocolate frosting. Every week, most of our pulled bars get cut up for sampling or thrown away.

I feel like corporate has no idea what’s going on in their stores or what customers want. This bar just seems like a mistake, but maybe other stores have had better experiences with the bar!

We sold a ton when it first launched. Then everyone realized how small it was and we know sell maybe a handful a day. And most the people that do buy it comment how it should be bigger.

I think the size of the bar is good because it’s very rich, but I do think it should be under $3. we don’t sell any. I literally don’t remember the last time I sold one. probably launch week

Yea i agree its good but its not $4 good lol. With that said tho, it is so rich that 1 bar is filling enough for some people but since its rich and that tiny size, they should definitely charge less than $4 for it lol. Good and rich but not $4 worthy

I use stars on it. It’s super tasty and I LOVE the texture.

Idk why it's not in the same size & price point as the cranberry bliss bars.
I cannot wait for cranberry bliss bar season to return.

we have one regular who gets it, only sometimes, and he only comes in a couple times a week, so maybe once a week.

I like it but never eat it. They were probably tryna go for the bliss bar vibes but summer bc that one was kinda successful.

At my store we're doing a BOGO bc they're not even worth the $2

I have to scrape the frosting off because it's too sour for me honestly. The bar is good but it's got that green garbage on top

SaucySinner13 1 points 10m ago

i had someone buy 4 a few days ago, but other than that i’ve probably only sold two or three since launch

No-Analysis-1813 1 points 10m ago

My store sells out of them almost every day

Poptart0911 1 points 10m ago

I think I've personally sold one! Just one! 😂 I love them but yeahhh I'd never buy them at that price. Maybe use rewards points for it

Dude! I was trying to describe the bottom of it to a guest today because they asked and I couldn’t think of it but was on the tip of my tongue. Thank you for jogging my memory! Lol

goldengraves 1 points 10m ago

We sell a lot tbh. I wouldn't buy it for four dollars but I don't think any of our pastries are worth the money.

volcom92nicole 1 points 10m ago

I’ve sold one maybe 4 all month lol
