WE NEED YOUR BUSINESS NOW MORE THAN EVER!!

Please stop by if you can this week! We need to create a budgetary cushion if we are going to sustain the winter for yall (slowest months)…we are balancing out and or depleting our current limited funds every week to keep up with labor and cost of goods to keep up a storefront business model. If this is not sustainable, the Prep Cakes studio only will be our next move. This will go back to our original model of ordering only with set pick up days at my location until the Economy improves or we can make up funds in King Cake Season.

I don’t share this as a “fear” tactic or “warning”. This is my heart pleading with you to please keep us alive. I can’t do it alone. And even in all this we still are the only culinary local business with a rewards program…we want to serve you! It’s never been profit related. It’s always been about You ❤️

WE are in this together! Let’s keep our community alive 🙌🏼❤️

With Tears,
Tess
