With the new 'Beetlejuice Beetlejuice' film set to be released on September 6, 2024, Crumbl is helping fans get ready for the occasion with a new Beetlejuice-themed Afterlife Cake.
Perfect for 'Beetlejuice' fans, the new cake will be available just in time for the movie's primer – the week ending on September 7, 2024. The new Afterlife Cake consists of two layers of moist dark chocolate cake with vanilla and dark chocolate cream cheese frosting sandwiched in between. The whole thing is then topped with sprinkles and a limited-edition "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice" cake topper.
If 'Beetlejuice' is not quite your thing, Crumbl also has a new Banana Bread treat available during the same week. This dessert consists of a mini banana bread loaf topped with brown sugar and sweet cinnamon streusel.
