Carol Coppins, Founder
If you’ve heard through the grapevine that something is going on at Flour Girls & Dough Boys, you have heard right. You may have heard it from one of the many hopeful, would-be owners.
Flour Girls & Dough Boys is, indeed, transferring to new ownership.
I want to take this opportunity to let you know that Flour Girls & Dough Boys is still the most amazing, scratch-made everything, fun and delicious bakery/café anywhere. Fortunately, that will never change. The new owners are just as dedicated to the bakery, and maintaining its unique atmosphere and menu as we are.
Most importantly, I want you to know that all the people you know and love at the bakery will still be there. Janece will still be taking your orders and filling your every need up front. Rhonda will be supplying you with delicious pastries, and Jennifer will be making sure your soups are freshly made from scratch, and your catering order is both delicious and on time. It’s impossible for you to know how much these three managers mean to me. Because of them, even though I will be gone, you will continue to receive the same amazing service you always have. They have been with me for a long time, and the new owner, Lory, is very lucky to have them.
The rest of our incredible team will also be staying. Jamison, Tina, Olivia and Lauren in the front. Chase, Kaytee, Tiffany, Meg, and Spencer in food. Natalie making all your favorite cupcakes and cookies. And, of course, the cleaning crew; Tagg, Schuyler, Danny and Sam.
Next to these people, who I love so much, I will miss our loyal customers most. There were lots of people who thought an independent bakery would never be able to compete against the Paradise’s and Zupa’s of this world. But I knew there were lots of wonderful people who would appreciate real food, made locally by locals. I was right, and I am confident we have the best customers anywhere. Though I’m happy to be able to spend more time with my family, and accommodate our changing family needs, I will miss my bakery life, and all of you.
Thank you for everything, and I’ll see you at the bakery. It’s my favorite place to eat!
