Mail Order Bakery

[Rockn]

Hey guys,

My girlfriend is trying to start a mail order subscription bakery. Where every month you would get a new kind of cookie or brownie or cake.

She is still in her beta mode and testing stuff out. I wanted to know that if any of you would be interested in getting a free batch of cupcakes or brownies? I'll I ask is that you let her know your thoughts on the product and presentation and that you give her business card/website out to your friends.

If you are interested, all you have to do is PM me with your name and address!

Thanks!

free food?! I would gladly be a product tester for your girlfriend's startup. If only there was a way to send tiramisu through the mail... but if this is for real, then I'll be more than happy to consume your pastries and let you know how I feel about them

edit: unless they are laced with ex-lax

i'm down for free baked goods...I live in MD...PM me...

[Tiranis]

Shoot, I'm in Canada... that's a certain no-go, customs are strict about food and it's expensive to send here.

Oh well... good luck to her!

[herpsky]

are you allowed to ship perishable food in the mail?

i don't think so...

[Tiranis]

are you allowed to ship perishable food in the mail?

i don't think so...

Well, I know you can ship it via FedEx, UPS, etc. Since she's probably using express mail or something like that (I can't imagine anyone using regular mail for this sort of thing), I would say it's allowed...

[therealcas]

PM me.

[todesengel]

I PMed you, I'm definitely down for free food.

I've used Canada Post to send cookies and even cupcakes. Never again though. $10 to send shortbread this xmas. Fk! At least nothing broke.

I am a Quality Assurance Engineer by trade so I would be a great tester for your girlfriend's baked goods!

Cupcakes for Amsterdam?

Pretty please with a cherry on top!

[seraphim]

I've tried sending baked things through the post before, and the damn things always seem to get lost.

I think postal workers are getting fat somewhere..

Wouldn't it be really difficult for your girlfriend to guarantee delivery?

[ktothe]

Oh man I hope you are still doing this when I move.

[Rockn]

thanks guys, got your PM's. Really appreciate it!

[kiya]

i want some!

more importantly, i'm interested in the final service once it's launched.

Yep. Most famous bakeries and even popular ice cream places ship, alot of the time worldwide. I have ordered ice cream from Mashti Malone's in L.A. a couple times.

Rockn - Great idea! Hope it all goes well.

Then again, this could be a Fuct/Johnny Cupcakes conspiracy to murder everyone on the site via cyanide?

I think you made my girlfriend and I two very happy people... (plus 5 lbs.), this idea is golden

Seriously though, worldwide shipping, won't the stuff be stale by the time it arrives?

Otherwise, Rockn sign me up!

[diewhitegirls]

Hell yeah. As a baker extraordinaire myself, I may be remotely useful.

[notesee]

Free junk food? This is too good to be true. PMed you.
