September 17th (annually)
Beignets make people happy. Arriving on a plate, in a bag, or passed by hand, they are simple indulgences that demand "sweet attention" and defy seriousness.
The BEIGNETS EXPRESSED® culinary team are masters at their craft, presenting a veritable selection of beignets, including the Classic dusted with powdered sugar and the Glazed featuring infinitely delicious flavors like Bananas Foster, Strawberry Shortcake, Grasshopper, Rainbow Crunch, Snickerdoodle, Apple Pie, Piña Colada, Chocolate Hazelnut, Cookies & Cream, and Campfire S’mores.
The proof of perfection is in the preparation of [over 300,000 pounds of dough a year,] and the taste, but that isn’t the only evidence - the National Day Archives has granted National Beignet Day, September 17 to BEIGNETS EXPRESSED® and Ralph Brennan. "The certificate hereby states that September 17 of each calendar year is officially designated as National Beignet Day." [Certified by National Day Archives, LLC to BEIGNET EXPRESSED®]
