- Store offers daily-baked cookies, special Valentine’s menu and extended weekday hours.
Road work that snarled traffic for months along Daniel Road in Gulfport is complete and a sweet shop that closed during the construction is open again.
Crumbl dessert shop at 15520 Daniel Blvd., near Sam’s Club and across from The Crossroads shopping center, is back in business ahead of Valentine’s Day.
The location off U.S. 49 and just north of I-10 proved to be not such a great place to do business while barriers narrowed the turn lanes and access roads to one lane and traffic jams kept people away.
The store closed on Sept. 13, after a sign posted on the door said it was shutting down, without any indication it would reopen.
Five months later, it is reopening under a new ownership group and management team.. McKae and Jocelyn Nelson, who opened their first Crumbl shop in Madison five years ago, reopened the Gulfport shop. It’s their sixth location in Mississippi.
Crumbl cookies are made fresh daily and packaged in distinctive pink boxes for customers who come in and buy a few or an assortment. The shop also sells gourmet pies, cakes and other desserts. In addition to their chocolate chip and a list of classic cookies always available, the 1,200 franchises nationwide feature a weekly rotating menu of over 300 flavors.
With Valentine’s Day on Saturday, some of this week’s specials are Crumbl’s first strawberry heart cake with a swirl of strawberry cream cheese frosting, a Dubai chocolate strawberry brownie and Conversation Hearts pink sugar cookie. The store also has Crumbl Valentine gift cards through Feb. 14.
The shop is open from 8 a.m.-10 p.m. Monday through Saturday and is closed Sundays. Delivery is available.
