I am truly overwhelmed with gratitude and so incredibly honored to share that we have been named 2025 New Business of the Year.
This recognition means more to me than I can fully put into words. What started as a silly hobby, has grown into something so much bigger than I ever imagined—and that is entirely because of the amazing people who you see in this picture. They have supported, encouraged, and believed in me along the way. Don’t let that sound like it was all from the sidelines either. Dishes, countless late nights and early mornings, supply runs and shop help, tears, vent sessions, new recipes, baking and cooking. These amazing people you see have done it all. I would NOT be standing if it weren’t for them.
To my family, friends, customers, and community—thank you for trusting me, for showing up, for spreading the word, and for cheering me on through every high and low. Your support has meant everything.
To those who have stood beside me, helped build this from the ground up, and poured your time, energy, and heart into this journey—please know this award belongs to you just as much as it does to me. I truly could not have done this without you.
This moment is not just a celebration of a business, but of a community that made it possible. I am beyond grateful, deeply humbled, and so excited for what’s ahead.
From the bottom of my heart—thank you.
