Do y'all put the pumpkin topping on foam? (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by Hoax_Pudding_Cup
So I'm beginning to doubt myself but I was always told to only put the pumpkin topping on the core items, like the PSL, the frap, and the pumpkin cream cold brew. But like if someone gets a Chai with pumpkin foam, we shouldn't put it unless requested. Is this still standard of have I just gone mad?

i only do the foam. the topping is a separate item, if they want it they need to order it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The foam and the pumpkin topping are 2 different modifiers. I’m pretty sure pumpkin topping costs an extra $0.50.

Only on the PSL, PSF or PCCB other than that it’s a charge

Yes! If they pay for pumpkin foam, the topping is included in the price.

$1

You are correct, PSL hot, iced, frapp, & cb w/ pccf do get the spice topping. Your example of the chai w/ pccf is correct to not get the pumpkin topping.

I only put it on the psl and pumpkin fraps. If they want it they gotta ask for it.

When I worked at Starbucks, I used to ask customers if they wanted it on their Cappuccino instead of CS. Customers love it and brings some autumn loveliness to their drink without having shot tons of syrup to get it 😂

I was trained that the topping goes on the foam ALWAYS. But I’m at a new store and I asked them what they do-the Shift for that day showed me on the register, that topping only shows up as a component for the menu drinks (PSL, etc.) but not when you ring in Pumpkin Cold Foam (like on top of a chai tea, etc.). It feels so naked without the topping though. I hope this helps.

what’s annoying is that it has topping in the photo on the app

that’s true for the on-menu drinks, i.e. PSL, PSF, PCCB, which all get pumpkin topping. but OP is talking about drinks that add pumpkin cold foam as a modifier, which wouldn’t be pictured in the app

i always do because I feel like it accompanies the foam
