FLASHBACK FRIDAY!
Where it all began - I have been making chocolate since 2004 after a trip to New York and being fascinated with the candy shops, in particular a chocolate spoon which I seen for sale in a store which was used as the little bookstore in the movie You've Got Mail.
I look back now at some of the creations and I cringe 😁 but without those creations, the rest would not have followed. The little store, the candy bouquet franchise, the location set-up's, the NEC, the supplying of major London stores, not to mention, the tears, the break downs, the hysterical laughter we all had together when you have stood too many nights, creating too many bouquets, and deadlines - the deadlines where the worst!
I am grateful to have Maple Molly's back, grateful to those family members that have helped along the way and those that are still helping so I can continue to do what I love. ❤️
Right now I am at a place where I want to enjoy it, no longer chasing big dreams, no longer want to kill myself to pay more to the tax man 😅
So thank you all for being here, whether it's from the beginning or you are a newbie, you are most appreciated 🥰
P.S let me know if you have had a bouquet or been in the store, would love to know if any of you still remember.
