This was our very first post in 2017. It is with both sadness and excitement we announce Unbaked will be closing for good this Sunday, April 30 at 10pm.
It has been one big rollercoaster ride since we opened 5 years ago. And although many have thought we are a franchise...we are not. It's just lil' old us. And us small business' have had the hardest time with the massive inflation in Arizona, as we don't have the volume leverage the big guys do to keep costs lower. The inflation we have incurred on basic food staples and supplies has been anywhere from 25-325% since 2020, which is obviously very difficult to absorb. Add the difficult labor market and you have a recipe for much lost sleep, and not a lot of fun.
In hindsight we probably couldn't have picked a more chaotic time to open our little foray into the dessert market. Between the pandemic, riots, supply chain issues, massive inflation, and a VERY difficult labor market, it has challenged us in ways we never anticipated. But now it's time for us to move on to other projects, and get a little rest. 😴
We want to say thank you for all your support over the years. We have loved making so many customers smile, and have appreciated all the kind words people have sent to us. It made it all worthwhile and we thank you. Hope to see you Friday, Saturday, or Sunday. Otherwise, thanks for the memories! 💕
