H0neybuns Roadshow

Hello,
Having enjoyed our anniversary meal so much on Monday, Matt & I decided to go out for a crafty secondonary anniversary celebration. If you like Thai Food there is the most lovely place in the most inauspicious surroundings of an industrial estate in Shaftesbury. It is called Baan Thai & is run by an English gentleman, his Thai wife & their daughters.There is a takeaway bit & a separate little restaurant room in miniature. The food is AWESOME- really fresh & great prawn curries.They will spice things up or down according to taste.
That’s our ‘going out’ quota done for the month on 2 consecutive nights but it was sooooo good for mind, body & soul!
Back to all things work: Cath & Julia normally conduct our Honeybuns rodashows. This is when they take their samples & go into customers’ stores to hand out bits of cakes to help sales along. We find that once people have tried our products, they can’t help coming back for more!
Julia is away at the moment so Charlotte & I are stepping into their roadshow shoes this Friday. We’ll be at the Fresh & Wild store in Bristol handing lots of cake, so if you are around please do come and say hello.
We’re on a mission to get to all of the Fresh & Wild stores within a few weeks. So, we’ll be going up to London once or twice a week for a bit. I love the opportunity to get out & about & find that we get a lot of inspiration by visiting places like Camden Lock & just mooching about.
I’m really looking forward to seeing our new marketing material. It is due in today & will hopefully be very helpful for our wholesalers & cafe clients.
I’ll be still on pitching & doing a little bit of press work today.I’m keen to write articles for a couple of trade publications & I think this is looking likely-will keep you posted. I can then rant on about sourcing policys & other food manufacting bug bears!
our Bee Shack cafe is only open one Saturday a month so why not pop in for tea & cakes this Saturday? We’d love to see you there. Lunch is fully booked but we are open 11 am -5 pm for drinks & cakes.
