On the 19th Dec, I had the opportunity of setting up a booth in Plaza Month Kiara morning market. It was a day filled with fun and excitement, it is the first time that my stuff have direct and open interaction with the live market.
The morning market started at 10 am, and ended at 5 pm. Being overly excited, needless to say, the booth was set up at 10 am. And here is the booth, (some of you might be really curious about the booth)
And now you probably be asking what was sold, and here they are,
Here is the Kimchi Fougasse (pronounced as fooGAHc), it is quite a hit, we had 2 French customer who bought this without hesitation, my guess is that, they already knew what is a fougasse.
Next, we have,...
... Pain Brie, another bread of Normandy origin, we could have made the usual French loaf, but this is one of my favourite. I had a French gentleman who was genuinely interested to buy it after tasting it, the funny thing is that, I forgot to bring along a bread knife and a chopping board,... my bad.
The next item is an Italian flavor, Focacia with rosemary, cherry tomato and fennel seed. It smelled great, in fact this is the first that got sold (to a non friend customer), I suppose the fine gentleman who bought it was in a rush and needed a quick fix.
The next goodie was
... Jaffa cupcakes, for the uninitiated, Jaffa is a common term to describe, orange + chocolate flavor. Since we are using our secret recipe chocolate cupcake with our special blend of orange cream, naturally, we have to call it Jaffa. At RM 2.00 each (promotion pack), it was a major hit. (If you may ask why the simple decoration?, it was baked the night before at 8 pm, and you could have guessed it, too tired for it, afterall, too much sugar is bad for your teeth LOL).
Finally, something for the kids,
... a king size chocolate cookie. I remember clearly, one mummy bought 1 for her toddler son, where the cookie was almost as big as his face.
Overall, it was a wonderful experience and we made many new friends, and we had so many encouraging feedbacks and suggestions. Rest assure, I am somewhat addicted to the idea of bringing my products to the public,.... orders anyone?
Part II
Our 2nd bazaar day at Plaza Mont Klara: 26th Dec 2010 (Boxing Day)
The stall outlook is slightly different compared to the 1st time.
Breads offered:
Jaffa & Lemon butter cupcakes were sold out.
Thinking back, we created a lot of nice memory. My daughter helped me on the drawing & the daddy design the pricing tag for all the baked goods. It was really fun.
