The Original Cafe Du Monde is a traditional coffee shop. Its menu consists of dark roasted Coffee and Chicory, Beignets, White and Chocolate Milk, and fresh squeezed Orange Juice. The coffee is served Black or Au Lait. Au Lait means that it is mixed half and half with hot milk. Beignets are square French - style doughnuts, lavishly covered with powdered sugar. In 1988 Iced Coffee was introduced to the cafe. Soft drinks also made their debut that year. The Cafe Du Monde Coffee Stand is owned by the Fernandez family. Hubert Fernandez bought the Coffee Stand in May 1942 from Fred Koeniger. At that time Mr. Fernandez owned the Fernandez Wine Cellar. In 1972, The Fernandez family closed the Wine Cellar in order to devote their energies to the Cafe Du Monde.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProduct Information\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCafe Du Monde Beignet Mix - (28 oz ea)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSame Cafe' Du Monde Beignet mix used at the Cafe' Du Monde Coffee Stands in New Orleans.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGoes great with powder sugar and coffee or milk\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlso known as French Doughnuts and Each box makes 4 Dozen Beignets\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is the same Cafe' Du Monde Beignet mix used at the Cafe' Du Monde Coffee Stands in New Orleans\u003cbr\u003eCafe Du Monde Beignet Mix - (28 oz ea).This familiar New Orleans landmark has been located in the French market since 1862.
