Breads and Spreads LLC
Information
In Spring 2019, Breads and Spreads began as a small 10'x10' booth setup at local farmers markets, presenting on Saturdays and Sundays at multiple locations throughout Southwest Florida providing "Better For You" Muffin Mixes shaped as Breads.
Each week, I would conceptualize (4) separate recipes for muffins - 100% Gluten Free - and package them to be sold alongside complimenting Spreads. Examples of these flavors would range from "Everything Bagel Bread" paired with a Small Batch Veggie Cream Cheese to Cornbread with a Homemade Honey Butter our Dragonfruit Cobbler with Tropical Kiwi Spread.
This was a way vir Breads and Spreads to differentiate ourselves from other vendors throughout the market that had the monopoly on traditional baked goods.
Participating in these Farmers Markets year round gave us an advantage, with the ability to test out many flavors to all different segments of the population. Headquartered in Naples FL -- Naples is a resort town with many snow birds in addition to a vacation destination. Naples is a unique location, but it helped gain a sense of consistency because so many locals are avid consumers supporting small business.
People had never seen anything like our stand, keeping it creative and methodically unveiling our flavor lineup a day before the market to our Instagram Following.
Seeing as we provided new and rotating flavors each week; 4 "breads" and 4 matching "spreads", this allowed us to flex my creative muscle and test the Market.
A lot of direct consumer feedback was given and this ultimately created the foundation of Breads and Spreads. Our lean, scrappy Business model enabled the ability to pivot quickly and remain lean to focus on perfecting the consumer's experience with my products, fine tuning anything that arose either on the spot or before the next farmer's market. We quickly became aware and grew to know our customer base. Ultimately the goal was to craft the perfect sweet treat without compromising taste. Five years and countless cookie trials later, CHEW.F.O. was born! CHEW.F.O. strives to deliver a satisfying, guilt free treat that can be enjoyed by choice rather than constraint.
