We will be on a limited schedule for Fall Break (Thanksgiving week). The university is closed for the entire week, and, basically, so are we. We are taking the opportunity to update and rearrange our operation, so everything will be pretty torn up.
We are taking special orders for Thanksgiving now and have quite a few people who want full pies and desserts, so get your order in quickly.
Well, we’re trying it. Everyone has been asking us to open earlier so we’re going to crawl before we walk. Starting today, 11/6/07, we are opening for pick-up at 4PM. We plan to see what we can do about delivery and even opening at noon, perhaps first of the year.
Our new cookie of the month for November is a Gingerdoodle cookie. We should have them soon (like Tuesday, 11/6). These have quite a bit of ginger and molasses and were well received last year.
We have now installed MocaPay so customers can pay via their cellphone with a MocaPay subscription. This service looks interesting and hopefully membership in Boulder will grow both within the student community and local residents.
Night before last we had a smidgen of time, so we tried putting together a lot of new combinations of cupcakes and icing. For example, we tried the strawberry cupcake with vanilla icing and the vanilla cupcake with strawberry icing. We were giving out free samples and I think we have a hit! We are going to be putting these combinations together somewhat regularly now so ask for them. Also, if you have something you would like us to try, just let us know. Thanks.
Thanks so much to all of the parents of CU students who stopped by Boulder Baked. It was great meeting you! We did our best to extend our hours by opening in the afternoon even with only two of us in the kitchen. That was sure an experience to remember. We hope to extend the hours every week soon. I hope you enjoyed the cookies.
Well, our cookie of the month is a peanut butter M&M cookie that really hits the spot. So far everyone who has tried it has rave reviews.
Just got back from the CSIA (Colorado Software & Internet Association) Demo Gala in downtown Denver. The keynotes were really entertaining and informative (Brad Feld, Governor Bill Ritter, eBags‘ Jon Nordmark, Google’s Tim Armstrong). There were also some excellent sessions on funding and the like. MocaPay received the people’s choice award. Overall it was great to see a bunch of people whom I’ve worked with in the past and meet some new folks doing some very interesting things.
I also enjoyed seeing some company demos from Lijit, Me.dium, MocaPay, and even a jetpack from GoFast
I talked with a bunch of folks about Boulder Baked and ordering late night. We’ll see what happens!
You need to try our newest cake. We alternate layers of chocolate and vanilla cake with layers of vanilla and chocolate icing. Really good for when you can’t make up your mind.
Well, this month we have a new cookie which has everything but the kitchen sink. It resembles a seven-layer bar but in cookie form. If you are into over-the-top sweetness give it a try. I have a serious sweet tooth and I love these but they are probably not for everybody.
Anyone have an idea for a name?
