Petit Uppercrust

Hi all! We have received some in-store feedback from you about our hours. We are considering opening earlier (7:30am instead of 8am) and closing earlier (6pm instead of 7pm). The poll is in our story if you would like to share your preference, or please message us! Always eager to serve you better. Many thanks!! ✨

Alejandro @ngcarrion is our operations manager, and spends a fair amount of their time at Petit. A jack of all trades, and gatekeeper of none, Alejandro is at his most glorious, adorable self when training and empowering others to work smarter and better. “The pain au chocolat is my favorite because it is simple. I don’t have much of a sweet tooth, so the chocolate is just right for me to have with a cappuccino in the morning.” ⏳ what is a moment you would like to relive? 🌳 hiking up El Yunque in Puerto Rico with my Uncle Ruben, and getting to hear stories and legends of the island. It’s this bright and warm memory of family that means a lot to me. 📸 @mkellough_

Hi Christina! @chris_avello Christina is one of our service shift leads. She brings our Princess Margaret cake to all her family gatherings. Incidentally, she will *not* bring her talents and sass to south Florida (“never living there again”) shortly for medical school. We’re rooting for Vanderbilt 😬 🍽 what is your go to meal after a long day? 🍝 I love making pasta with homemade sauces packed with fresh veggies and basil from my garden. You can’t forget the garlic bread too! 📸 @mkellough_

Pablo, or Pabs, is bathing in the morning glow of his favorite - butter rolls. 💡 what’s something we might not know about you? 🐸 I can identify all native Florida frog calls. 💕 what’s your favorite kind thing to do for others? 💝 make them something - a gift, dish, or cup of tea. 📸 @mkellough_

Everyone say 👋 to our service manager, Terry!! @terry.weber.589 Terry has learned to love GroupMe and does this amazing thing where she has spoons ready for you exactly where and when you need. That’s anticipation! 🌰why is [redacted: a slice from I Love NY Pizza across the plaza during your break] *the Nutella croissant* your favorite? 🍫I love the marriage of the Nutella with our delicious croissants! 💡what is something you wish more guests knew about Petit Uppercrust? 🥣 our homemade soups! ✋how many languages can you say “hello” in? 🤟three! English, Spanish, and French. 📸 @mkellough_

A little get-to-know-you with Zoey @zoey.miller98, who is leaving us for nursing school (… except for some possible “speed dial” busy weekend covers - thanks Zoey!!). 🥚what do you like about quiche? 🍳there are so many options! Almost everyone could find one they like, and explore combinations of flavors they haven’t tried. They are also very silky and creamy. My favorite is goat cheese and chive 🐐🐐 💕what’s the nicest thing a co-worker has done for you? 💞 co-workers help daily, so it’s hard to pick just one. I think one thing was when a co-worker was so quick to cover a last minute thing so I could be with a family member when they left the hospital. 👧what smell reminds you of childhood? 🍋citrus! It reminds me of having orange juice for breakfast before school and lemonade during the summer after playing outside.

G I V E A W A Y Mother’s Day is a happy time for many, but is complicated for many as well. Inspired by an @upworthy post, we join our elder sibling @uppercrust_productions in inviting you to celebrate “Grown Ups Who Love You Day” with us - through a giveaway! To participate in our “Grown Ups Who Love You Day” giveaway, please tag a grown up who has helped you grow and flourish… along with their favorite treat that you’d like included in a custom Petit Uppercrust gift basket 🧺💐💖 🎥 @ngcarrion PS: this giveaway is being held separately from, and in addition to, the same giveaway @uppercrust_productions ✨

Meet Alyssa! Petit Uppercrust’s team may be petit, but it is fierce. Alyssa is our primary closing shift lead, and her [shockingly] self-deprecating sense of humor belies her serious professionalism. Everyone loves Alyssa. Un Petit q & a! Why cinnamon rolls? I made them a lot as a kid, and they remind me of home. Only the cream cheese, though. That’s my one true pair right there. When it was snowing and I got that day off school, and my mom was home from work, we’d always make Pillsbury ones. She’d put her homey touch on them, though. Our cinnamon rolls remind me of that. What’s something we might not know about you? I’ve read the Twilight series over 20 times, I watch the movies at least 3 times per week, and I’ve heard the audio books at least 15 times.
