OWNING A CAFE | What it’s like, barista to owner, experimenting on recipes, small business life ☕️

  • Owning a cafe is like stepping into a whole new world. As a former barista of the same shop that my husband and I purchased, I thought I had mastered the ins and outs of the cafe, but becoming small business owners introduced us to a whole new level. Experimenting with recipes went from a creative outlet to a daily necessity, aiming to find that perfect blend that not only satisfies but defines my cafe.
    Small business life is the heartbeat of owning a cafe. From crunching numbers to building a brand, every decision feels like a piece of a puzzle in my entrepreneurial journey. Yet, amidst the hustle, there’s a unique joy in watching my cafe grow - the personal touch I add to each recipe, each cup, the connections I build with customers, and the satisfaction of creating a space that feels like home. I hope you will join me on my journey by subscribing. :-) ☕🌟

    for the croffles, you might wanna try using pre-baked croissants from the day before that didn't sell. sometimes it just works better (like how breadcrumbs are better with stale bread) and also helps reduce food waste! :)

    Oh I'm so glad I found your channel I love this! Always been curious about what it's really like to own a small cafe. I'm living in Korea now and I was just thinking how common croffles are here haha been here so long didn't know it was popularized in Korea ;) To be honest though, plain Korean waffles that they sell in subway stations and markets are my favorite! Sometimes they put cream or apple jam on them and they're SOOO GOOD! Ask your barista if she tried them heh heh :)
