It’s not you…it’s us. We’re having a glow up. ✨
I started Cookie Lane in the pandemic from my home kitchen—because when life gets heavy, sweet treats help. Home bakes turned into attending markets & events. Which turned into a trailer with coffee, which turned into our pretty little pink cookie shop which we’ve loved for the last 2 years. All of the above was never supposed to happen, but it did! And I’m so so thankful for everything.
For those who have been along for the ride, they’ll know that the last year has been pretty rough both personally and professionally. Unfortunately, over the last few months with the cost of literally everything dramatically increasing, I’m only just making enough to keep the operational costs of the business. Meaning, I’m not paying myself a wage. Thus leading to me making the tough decision mid last month to notify my landlord that I will not be renewing my lease and I will cease operations at Cookie Lane effective end of August and head back to my roots. Markets/Events/PopUps.
Thankfully, the small business community is incredible and after hearing of my struggles, a fellow Boss Babe offered me an out that would solve all of my worries. She rebrands the cafe, takes over my lease and operational costs. The only catch, I stay on and keep doing exactly what I do best, while she also pays me a wage!!
Same cookies, same coffee, same place, same face. Just a fresh look. No compromise on quality, recipes, or service. A new outfit on the same heart. She genuinely saved Cookie Lane, and I’m so grateful. 💗
So here’s the plan:
• All standing orders will go ahead as planned
• Only the look of the cafe changes
• Online ordering is still as normal
• The new name café will be the ONLY official stockist of Cookie Lane sweet treats—we’re still Cookie Lane, just… different.
Now I need my cookie & coffee crew more than ever. Keep showing up. Bring a friend. Tell your mum group. Share this post. Your support is why we made it this far—and why we get to keep going. 🍪☕️
Love you. Mean it. See you for a glow up cookie/coffee 🩷
