To
market, to market to buy a…Chocolate Whiskey Cake! So, on Saturday at the
Hillcrest Farmers Market (HFC) here in Little Rock the Baby Bundt Cakes were
flying off the table. Loved it! The full size cakes did great as well. It was
the official opening of the market for the season and the special hours were 7:00
a.m. – 2:00 p.m., but we sold out by 10:30 a.m. Wow! High class problem, people --we
should all have such problems all the time! Anyhoo, time to start baking five
days a week instead of three. The address for HFC is 2200 Kavanaugh Boulevard,
a very pretty area for shopping and walking.
I’ve
decided it is time to go Defcon 4 with the business and have started a campaign
on gofundme.com. I will use the funds for: a Website; more equipment;
trademarking names; ingredients; advertising; and the initial setup fees for
credit card acceptance on location. It is easy to use PayPal for online
ordering, but in person at the markets is another matter. And I do plan to sell
at other local markets in addition to HFC. So, you can help me grow and here’s
how: The campaign is on my facebook page and if you will donate/share it with
your friends and they donate/share it with their friends we can go global in no
time! And every donation gets yummy treats in return, so it is win-win. I
appreciate all the support and I look forward to expanding Katie Connally
Confections and the home baked aspect which is what makes it worthwhile.
REMINDER: Sunday, May 12th is Mother’s Day (yay!) and you need
a gift, flowers and a full size cake, and you know I’ve got your back on the cake! I will be at the
HFC this Saturday with full size cakes and the Baby Bundts.
This Saturday’s Baby Bundt flavors will be:
Glazed
Key Lime Rum
Chocolate
Whiskey
Glazed
Lemon Twist (no alcohol)
The whole Bundt Cake flavors will be:
Golden
Butter Rum
Chocolate
Whiskey
To make sure you get a Mother’s Day cake on
Saturday you can place an order with me.
Until I have a website (I know, I know!) just send me an email: katieconnallyconfections@littlerockwoman.com
and I will send you an invoice that you pay through PayPal using any
credit/debit card you have. I will bring
your order with me to the Hillcrest Farmers Market, 2200 Kavanaugh Boulevard. Easy, delicious and your Mom will love it!
Peace and chocolate forever,
Katie Connally’s granddaughter
