T H A N K Y O U (Long Post Alert)
I had a great day in Bude yesterday. I made HEAPS and sold nearly all in the end, with the help of a last minute end of business promo 😉 so thank you all for buying.
Special thanks to the customer coming back to tell me it was ‘the best cake they’ve had and they’ve tried a lot of cake’ - it’s comments like that that make the hours of work behind the scenes worth it 😊
Truly means the world getting lovely comments. Along the way I’ve been lucky enough to hear some lovely things, meet some brilliant and talented fellow traders and see some lovely smiles over my food, a particular favourite was in Totnes; a gentlemen came walking back with gusto 5 minutes after buying a cookie, looking serious, to tell me it was the best cookie he’d had and to keep doing what I’m doing, then walked back off with same gusto. So to you Mr Totnes Customer, I will.
Doors may be closed for now, but I’m excited to keep learning absorbing practising and one day bring this back sooner or later. I feel my stall needs work and will hopefully do this also.
Thank you, once again, for supporting me. Also, keep supporting small. We put hours in behind the scenes (13+hrs sometimes), prepping fresh, baking small batches due to small ovens (I use a 3 rack home oven, the top half isn’t for baking) cleaning, prepping, boxing, decorating, setting up, packing down, more cleaning, record keeping, cleaning again, stressing, stock buying - constantly - as most can’t yet bulk buy.
But when we get to feed and share things we like to make and eat ourselves with lovely customers like you, it makes it all worthwhile 😊
Had some exciting talks with venues about arranging some vegan events for us all to attend when back, alongside my (hopefully) new and improved stall, so watch this space, as they say, and we will see! Also, believe the people that believe in you, then maybe you’ll start believing in yourself, something I’ve learnt/am learning.
Also, if you’ve liked/disliked/have any feedback of my food you’ve tried over the time, I’d love to hear it, whether that be a review or PM 🙏
Thanks for the past 6 months!
SEE YOU SOON(-ish)✌🏻🧁 🇦🇺
