March 22, 2019/by
The Lagniappe Box is a monthly Louisiana Subscription-themed box, which includes a never-before-seen T-shirt and artfully selected local product. Each month, Sweet Baton Rouge team curates a box filled with all Louisiana products to accompany the release of its latest T-shirt design. Products in the box are a complete surprise when it arrives on the doorsteps of Sweet Baton Rouge customers. “As a local small business, we love to support our fellow small businesses,” said Meredith Waguespack, owner of Sweet Baton Rouge. “Not only does our Lagniappe Box support local businesses, but it celebrates our community and great state of Louisiana.” Sweet Baton Rouge, formally known as SFT launched its first box in October 2016. Within four days, the 40 exclusive boxes sold out. Today, more than 150 people are subscribed to the monthly box. The box is exclusive to a maximum of 200 subscribers. With its gain in popularity, Sweet Baton Rouge created lagniappebox.com as a sister brand to coincide with Sweet Baton Rouge.   The new website includes an inside look at previous boxes, other local brands, and the options to subscribe to and gift boxes. In addition, Sweet Baton Rouge launched an official Instagram account, @lagniappebox, that features box items and promotions exclusively around the Lagniappe Box. https://youtu.be/sE1k1nPiUBo Subscription Options Monthly Lagniappe Box – Subscribe and Save You can buy this option as a one-time monthly box or you can purchase it on subscription, cancel anytime. Great option for yourself or as a gift! Sign Me Up!!  Our Auto-Renew options!

September Lagniappe Box Our September Box is special for two reasons this month. For starters this year we celebrate the 30th Anniversary of our favorite Louisiana movie of all time: Steel Magnolias. The movies theme of friendship and strong southern women are the heart and inspiration behind your September Lagniappe box! The Steel Magnolias play was written by Robert Harling in only ten days and was based on a true story. He wrote the story as a way of coping with the passing of his sister, Susan. Susan later became Shelby and because the play was such a HUGE hit, Hollywood came calling and Steel Magnolias became a motion picture with an All-Star  class. The Steel Magnolias women have become iconic for so many reason, we built this box just for you, because we know there’s is a little steel magnolia in every southern girl!   The second reason to celebrate, is we are celebrating TWO YEARS of Lagniappe Box this month!! We couldn’t do it without YOU - so thank you for trusting our team to share Louisiana local love, delivered to your doorstep! Our mission from the very beginning of launching Lagniappe Box was to celebrate and share the local love behind each maker.
