And just like that, September is done. 🍂
This month felt a little different.
After such a wild summer, September was our chance to slow things down just a tiny bit, get back into a routine, start creating again and look ahead to everything coming this fall.
And somehow, we still managed to pack a LOT into one month. 😂
We launched the Cozy Cookie Collection, baked through some really fun new flavours, headed to Ribfest with 1,500 cookies, launched our merch online and started winding down our retail season.
One of the biggest moments for me was realizing that from May through September, our retailers sold over 10,000 Baked By The Lake cookies.
That number still completely blows my mind. 🤯🤯
There are still a few cookies hanging around at some retail locations, but once they’re gone, that will officially wrap up our retail season for the year. More on that to come!
For now, I’m just taking a minute to appreciate what an incredible season it has been and how much support there has been for our cookies all across Kenora.
Looking ahead - Pop-ups, winter markets, spooky season baking, Canadian Thanksgiving, my nephew’s wedding desserts, holiday prep and probably more cookies than I should even think about right now. 😂
