Little bit of a house keeping post

After only having 6 days off this year it’s time I gave the staff a bit of a break and take some time off myself
I think my family are going to change the locks at the cafe if not
From today we will be closed on a Sunday until the 15th of September

Iv also got staff on holiday 🙄
how dare they, must be paying them to much 😂
So we will be closed
Monday 29th and Tuesday 30th of July
Apart from that it’s business as usual 6 days a week

This could be the last bake of brownies I do so come and stock up tomorrow if you can’t live without them, I’m now out of chocolate !
To give you idea what’s happening 10kg of chocolate 18 month ago was £50-£60 at Christmas it was £92
I’m now getting quoted £140-£200

This would make our brownies £5 and blondies £6
Personally i can’t see customers paying that, I wouldn’t pay that !

The situation is only going to get worse into next year, I won’t bore you with the facts Google it if your interested but it’s that bad I reckon we could see a 50p freddo by Christmas

Im looking for alternatives but even cheap chocolate ain’t cheap

Just had the shock of my life trying to order more chocolate
It will be cheaper to smoke crack than bake brownies in the near future

One of the reasons my brownies are so good is the quality of the products that go into them which I refuse to change or buy cheaper because in baking if you start with s**t you end up with baked s**t and nobody likes that

Chocolate has been on a steady increase in price over the last year or so
its increase has been balanced out by other products like butter coming down but it’s just taken a massive jump and unfortunately it means the price of what I use it in has to go up.

I had every intention of posting a nice pic of 2 well made pies this morning as we’ve been getting asked for them

Peanut butter pie turned out amazing !

But because I’m an impatient t**t I may have put the biscoff filling in too early which may have melted the caramel then the base which left me with what we are now calling .. biscoff trifle 🤣

I can assure you it still tastes amazing because the half that’s missing Iv eaten 🐷what’s left is available discounted of course

Bored of making these already 😂
I just don’t get the appeal of them it’s an egg with sausage meat and breadcrumbs
It’s basically a deep fried sausage and egg sarnie
Anyway new and improved recipe this week !
Meaning iv spoke to the butcher that makes our burgers and sausages and I’m now using the same sausage meat as our sausages for the scotch eggs

20/06/2024

Just a little friendly reminder that tomorrow is Friday and England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 play tonight so we will be extra busy tomorrow
Please get your orders in early !!

We only have 2 tables left for 10am and we already have sandwich orders in for tomorrow
it’s looking like we won’t be taking orders on just eat for most of the day

Don’t let this put you off coming though, if you give us time on your order or book a table we will always serve you

Another batch of savoury scotch eggs made

Those of you that have pre ordered to pick up this afternoon I’m here till 10pm and if you hurry they will still be warm

You might be thinking f**k off customers have pre ordered scotch eggs
That was my reaction too 🤷🏻‍♂️😂

Are these any good to anyone ?
Pick them up free from the cafe

We get our mushrooms in them and we are going through 3-4 trays a day
They’re getting a bit much to get rid of as they take up a lot of space in our bin

Happy Monday
At least I think it’s Monday, Iv had 5 days off since Christmas. It doesn’t matter what day it is now

Something a little different from me this morning, we have so many customers thinking the sweet scotch eggs are savoury I thought I’d make a killing if I made some
I don’t like making savoury food and prefer making desserts
Meaning I just want your money now

Free range egg, Lincolnshire sausage, double dipped in breadcrumbs for that extra crunch. I had one yesterday and it was more enjoyable than driving round hull at weekend

WE WILL BE CLOSED TOMORROW sunday 9th of June
It’s hull 10k, we have several roads closed around us and in all honesty it’s going to be a pain in the arse to get delivery’s out
All because ppl run 🏃 for fun ??
Don’t we have parks for that🤣

Now some good news !!
From next weekend the cafe will be open for customers to come and sit down for breakfast as well as takeaway and delivery’s
We now have systems in place to cope with the amount of orders we receive. weekend staff are confident enough to be able to cope with any extra work and give the same service customers receive during the week

One last thing…
Thank you to everyone that’s left reviews it makes all the work we are doing worth while receiving feedback like this

What’s better than pie ?
2 pies !!
Free piece for the first person to guess the flavour !

Iv been quiet on here the last few weeks, Iv been busy learning.
One thing I wanted to do this year was up my desert game so Iv spent the last few weeks learning how to make caramels, ganache, jams and custards and Iv got some very tasty treats lined up

I just need to stop eating it all now because I’m fat as f**k at the minute 🤣

Last weekend there was a lot of confusion about how we operate on a weekend

We offer a takeaway service only on a weekend which means on a Saturday and Sunday you can come to the cafe order food and take it away
You can also get a delivery through just eat
All our food is cooked to order or made fresh on the day, this means it can take a bit of time to cook your food. It also means we won’t have lasagne ready at 9am on a Sunday morning

We do not offer a sit in service meaning the seating area is closed.
The reason for this is we are based on an industrial estate and we just don’t have the footfall or enough passing trade to warrant opening the seating area
We’ve tried it before and it’s just not profitable enough to warrant the extra staff and running costs

I understand that customers want to come and sit down for a breakfast but I have to do what’s right for the business and what is profitable, If it wasn’t for the delivery service we wouldn’t be open on a weekend and in all honesty the cafe would have closed in march due to the amount of road closures we’ve had in the area this year

How nice does the cinnamon roll blondie look straight out the oven !!

It’s Wednesday which means it’s late night baking re stock, this is probably going to be your last chance to get most of these flavour blondies and brownies as I’m going to change it up next week with some new flavours the only thing that’s staying is the OG caramel brownie and the cherry Bakewell blondie

This is not a post I ever expected to write after working a Saturday

Waiting times in the cafe for takeaways have been more than 20 mins all day today and this is why …

On a weekend we are exceptionally busy on just eat . We’ve done 29 just eat orders in 5 hours today, we stopped taking orders across dinner time because we was so busy
We get 15 mins cooking time on each order and at any one time we have 4 orders cooking so if your coming to the cafe without ordering then you are already looking at a minimum of 15 mins wait. If you can’t wait 15 mins for your food to be cooked then surely it would be wise to give us a call and order it

I’m trying to work on changing this but the last few months have been a bit of a whirlwind, it takes time to train staff and put new systems that work in place
I’m currently working over 100 hours a week myself and have been for the last 2 months, I’m not complaining in anyway as I appreciate every bit of custom we receive I’m just asking for a bit of understanding and for you to try work with us

All ready for your weekend treats !! Thank you 🙏 to everyone that’s ordered with us on just eat over the last few weeks

If your new to the page these are sweet scotch eggs

It’s a crème egg or caramel egg wrapped in brownie then dipped in white Belgium chocolate and coated with a biscoff crumb. They are just a bit bigger than a tennis ball and take some eating !

These are available in the cafe for £6
They sell out fast !!
you can pre order by messaging the page (don’t expect a reply tonight , Iv just done a 14 hour day 🤣)
Very unsure if these are going to be available on just eat as in all honesty I don’t know if Iv got the time to mass produce them.
