About yesterday at the Hillingdon Chamber of Commerce business expo!
In the words of Harvey Price “what a day”
A huge thank you to everyone who came to our stand. We took 500 business cards, and we’ve come home with about 20!
I prepped over 500 samples of cakes, brownies, cinnamon rolls and focaccia, and came home with NONE!
We made so many connections, spoke to so many people, and had an audience the whole time watching me finish my display piece live all day, chatting to me, and coming back again and again to see the process and progression.
We had friends come to support us, strangers cheering us on, and I don’t think I stopped smiling and talking the whole time!
Everyone was just AMAZING!
SOMEHOW, despite being shockingly unorganised, and having a stand I threw together in 10 minutes from a hoop I bought on Vinted for £15, the flowers from my studio walls which wouldn’t stay in place on the hoop, and two net curtains I’ve had for years still in their packages, we won the most creative and engaged stand!
🤯
Even the cake I was working on was dreadfully finished 😂🙈
Good thing there were no cake judges!
Lloyd the Llove Llama came with us, and I’m surprised he made it back home, as so many people wanted to steal him! He was the real star of the day!
Of course I acted a prat when my name was called for best stand and immediately had cameras in my face 😂🙈
It wouldn’t be me if I didn’t.
I’m nervously waiting for the video to be posted to socials so I can see just how stupid I was 😂🙈 (sorry Kai 😬 embarrassing mum alert)
The Mayor of Hillingdon, Reeta Chamdal, spent so much time talking to us, and she’s honestly one of the nicest, kindest, and just utterly beautiful people I’ve met!
Thank you so much for your kindness, laughter and genuine conversation. It was like talking to a friend I’d known my whole life. ❤️
We are absolutely exhausted today, so whilst I would usually be working in the studio, I’ve decided to have an admin day, and not move from the sofa, which has now fused to me, and we are one. I can’t move, even if I wanted to.
If anyone managed to get any pictures or videos, please tag us in them, or send them our way so we can share them. I didn’t stop all day, so I only have these few.
We’d also appreciate a review if you tried any of our samples.
Thank you again, and you’re all WONDERFUL people 🥰🥰🥰
Same time again next year! We’ve got a title to defend now! 💪🏻🏆
Chloe and Kai ❤️
