Amongst the numerous things I have planned for the year, the one I’m undoubtedly most excited about is one I’ve been working on the last month or so.
I have been wanting to start a little something for quite a long while now and with a little nudge from the boyfriend, we figured there was no better time to get started on it while I was on sabbatical leave.
So with that, I’m so proud and excited to announce that we’ve started a small home-based bakery, Whisk!
We’ve spent the last couple of weeks spent testing recipes, experimenting and perfecting with techniques, sourcing for boxes, designing the labels and website so we couldn’t be more psyched that it has all finally come together.
As we’re keeping it really small at the moment, we currently only sell our much loved cream puffs.
(We did a soft launch over the festive period, selling to just family and friends. We were so thrilled by how well received they were!)
We will be expanding on our flavour range for the cream puffs as well as adding more of our favourite baked goods to the menu in time to come.
So come on by and check us out! We’ll see you on the other side!
