Beyond Grateful for This Community!
I’m honestly beyond grateful and completely blown away by all of the support we received today. 🥹❤️
Today, the storms created unsafe conditions for both vendors and guests, which led the event host to make the difficult decision to cancel Market on Market today.
Unfortunately, freshly made baked goods are perishable and can’t simply be saved for another event. I’ll admit, seeing the amount of baked goods I had prepared made me a little nervous. But those nerves quickly disappeared because of YOU, this incredible community.
Within an hour of the cancellation announcement, we received so many messages and texts from both new and existing customers reaching out to place orders. We also saw fellow vendors sharing our posts and helping spread the word so that we bakers could find homes for our goods.
Seeing all of your comments, messages, shares, and posts truly warmed my heart. It’s moments like these that remind me why I keep going and why all the long hours, sacrifices, and sleep deprivation are worth it.
Every order, kind word, review, recommendation, shared, and piece of feedback means more to me than you know. Your support allows me to keep pushing forward and continue sharing a little piece of my culture, my upbringing, and my heart through the food I create.
Thank you for welcoming El Coqui’s Kitchen into this community and for allowing me to share my love of baking and my Latin-inspired flavors with you all.
Thank you for your orders.
Thank you for your kind words.
Thank you for your reviews.
Thank you for sharing our posts.
Thank you for supporting a small business.
And most importantly, thank you for believing in us. 🥹❤️
Thank you Mario Youakim for the opportunity for us to participate at Market on Market this year. For creating a wonderful community filled with caring and supportive entrepreneurs.
Also, we are so grateful for each and every one of you our El Coqui familia, and we can’t wait to continue serving this amazing community with delicious, handcrafted Latin-inspired baked goods.
From the bottom of my heart — THANK YOU. 🇵🇷❤️ ¡WEPA!
