1. Short and punchy Mango cheesecake, in a jar. DM me to pre-order for the weekend. #MangoCheesecake #CheesecakeJar #WeekendPreorder Character count: 112 2. Story-style The jar in this photo is our new mango cheesecake. Dessert lovers in my city, this one is for you. It is mango. It is cheesecake. It is in a jar.

In the DM, say you want the mango cheesecake jar, and say it is for the weekend. That way I know which post you mean. If you want dessert this weekend, the step is the same. DM me to pre-order for the weekend. #MangoCheesecake #CheesecakeJar #WeekendPreorder #MangoDessert Word count: 117 3. Helpful mini-guide How to pre-order this jar: 1.
