How long have you been in business? Reopened in August 2023 (originally established in 2021).
What does your business do? We provide custom curated grazing table catering for private parties, weddings and corporate events. We also make charcuterie boards, platters, and conduct charcuterie workshops.
What sets you apart from others in your industry? Every creation I do is a unique work of art. No two platters or spreads are the same. The ingredients for every event I do are hand-picked by me, and I always choose the highest quality ingredients available. My goal is to not only provide a tasty menu but also a memorable grazing experience.
What question are you asked most frequently by clients? People are often curious about the work that goes into my spreads before the guests get to them. They’re often surprised to hear that the minimum amount of time that I spend on my platters is 2 hours and that I spend up to 8 hours for a large grazing table for up to 100 people.
What is your favorite business success story? It’s hard to name just one! … My favorite successes are those of women. We wear so many hats in life and to see us rise in the business world and within our passions moves me beyond measure.
As someone doing business in San Marcos, what are you looking forward to accomplishing with the Chamber? I absolutely love the people at the San Marcos Chamber! The support that I’ve received from the time when I first opened my doors has been incredibly motivating and inspiring. When I was first getting started and putting myself out there, it was so helpful to know that I wasn’t alone and that others believed in what I was creating. I’m excited to continue to meet new people, to grow in the community and to be a resource for other businesses as well.
What’s your best piece of business advice? The same piece of advice I have to give myself on a regular basis is to be patient and not give up before the miracle. As a new business owner, I’m learning in real time that my efforts and what I’m putting into this business will not always show an immediate return. … I trust that every reward as well as every struggle that comes along the way is leading to the next big success and miracle.
