Happy Monday, UC neighbors!

If you’re reading this with a second cup of coffee and a view of snowbanks taller than your mailbox, you’re not alone. The blizzard that started yesterday officially turned Union County into a winter postcard and now we’re all digging out, shoveling sidewalks, and debating whether it’s too early for comfort food round two.

We’ve also rounded up events happening across Union County as things reopen and reschedule because even a blizzard can’t stop this community for long.

Fluffy Fluffy
100 North Union Avenue, Cranford

A sweet new spot is about to land in downtown Cranford. Fluffy Fluffy is coming soon bringing its signature Japanese soufflé pancakes to Union County. If you’ve ever seen those tall, jiggly, cloud-like stacks all over social media, that’s them. These pancakes are whipped to airy perfection, cooked low and slow, and topped with fresh fruit, cream, and decadent sauces. Many locations also serve mille crêpe cakes, cheesecakes, and specialty drinks like matcha lattes and fruit teas. The brand has built a following across the U.S., often drawing lines during opening weeks, so expect some buzz when doors officially open. Cranford’s dessert scene just got a little fluffier.
