  • Spend the day with me for a day in my life as a bakery owner. A bit about me below!
    A year and a half ago I opened my bakery, Brooki Bakehouse. It wasn't very busy at first but now we are baking around ~1000 cookies a day. Excited to share with you more bakery content :)

    As someone who runs a small food business (nowhere near as busy as yours), I respect the hell out of your videos! I can't believe you have time to film while running your shop! I think from time to time it would be so fun to film what I do as a business owner, but then I get swept up in the million of other things I have to do 🤣

    As another chocolatier with a small business I’ve found an extremely cheap ‘price gun’ stickers is the fastest way to apply date stickers :) extremely small and easy to wash off and cheap. Those price guns never fail they are like $15usd and 20,000 sticker and 5 ink rolls are like $15 also. So much faster then our custom printed ones we used to use when we first opened ed our store. ❤

    8am is a bit late for a bakery to open. Most people need to be at work at 8 and they are likely going there to get stuff for a morning meeting. You would probably sell more if you opened earlier. I worked at a bakery for 4 years and I got there at midnight so by 6am we were set and ready to go with everything already baked.

    • @BrookiBakeHouse
      @BrookiBakeHouse  Před 5 měsíci +1

      cookies and biscuits are two different products imo :) biscuits are more like tea biscuits you dip into a cup of tea that have a long shelf life, cookies for me are freshly made! I'd say in Australia we recognise the two are different products - hope this makes sense!

    • @thebettertee
      @thebettertee Před 5 měsíci

      i’m british and we use biscuit and cookie for different products!! cookies are large, round and chewy vs biscuits that are usually quite small and crunchy. cookies also seem to have ingredients ingrained into them vs biscuits which are one overall flavour usually (if you get what i mean). cookies are also more frequently freshly baked and sold in fewer amounts where you would get a large packet of biscuits.

    Honest question: Do you ever feel any guilt at all about the product you're selling, since it is mostly sugar and refined flour, two of the worst products humans can ingest?

      I think there are enough customers to where if each person just eats one box of treats a week then they will be okay. It’s not wrong to enjoy baked goods, but it needs to be done in moderation. And she shouldn’t have to monitor the diet of her customers. That is up to the individual.

      Uh, no. If you do it for one you'll have to do it for all. Next thing customers are lining up at 6h00 while she is trying to prep. Opening and closing times are there for a reason. You wouldn't expect a large chain store to open an hour and a half early just for you, so why do you expect a small business like this to do it?

    • @maura423
      @maura423 Před 5 měsíci +19

      I disagree. She already gets up at 5 am. Should she get up at 4? 3? That isn't sustainable. Business owners generally work very hard and devote most of their time and effort to the work. If they don't set some limits, they will eventually burn out and fail.
      In my area, the bakeries that open at 6 or 7 are already running out of the best things by 9am. If I'm shopping at 10:30, I'd rather visit a bakery that opens a little later, for freshness and selection.
      If the food is quality and the local market supports more than one bakery, then there will be a place for every customer.
