I stopped my baking business bc of the small town I live in. I felt like I wouldn’t make it far since I had such a small audience. Now I see I can ship. You are an inspiration. Thanks Queen 😍
@@Meoniamonay marketing is my issue i would post them on my business page but thats all I really want to put some of my stuff in stores but help is expensive and hard to find
I stated a baking business and as it has started to grow, I am getting request from people in different states about shipping my treats. I have been fearful of shipping my products, but now I feel more confident by watching your video. Thank you for sharing and being so transparent!!
A helpful queen!!! Thank you so much for this information. I just started my cocktail mixer business and was trying to remain local and have had an overwhelming response to customers seeking shipping for my product. I kind of didn't even know where to began and this has helped so much!
I'm really grateful for this video I am a home baker and this video gave me life! I live in Dallas Texas and I struggled a little with packaing and this filled in some of the things I struggled with because I am now shipping quite a few items. I already knew to freeze my items but i didn't think to check on final pick up not knowing my items could be sitting on a dock all day. This video was very informative.
I'm trying to start up a chocolate business and was trying to figure out a way to ship without the risk of them melting. This video was extremely helpful, in fact I think it's the best source on the internet. Thank you.
This video was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! I am an entrepreneur with a baking/catering company and we are looking to start shipping some of our products! This was SO INCREDIBLY HELPFUL!! Thank you so much for the advice! SUBSCRIBED!! 😃 ❤🎉
It definitely was very useful! And I’m glad to know that I’m not very far off your advice. I am currently shipping wellness shots and I freeze my products for at the very minimum 8 hours but sometimes longer . I have to find the right ice packs I definitely think I will need them for the summer months. Thanks again for the advice and keep shining Queen !
OMG thank you very much for this video!! I'm driving myself crazy trying to learn how to ship my cakes out of state...all your tips were an amazing help! ...I do the bow thing for all my treat boxes 😂 it was really funny but mind blowing to realize how big my business can grow, just like yours!!!
It would be awesome if you could show how you make an order! From start to finish! I loved this video and truly appreciated it. It has enlightened me with so much information.
I was looking for a good video about shipping perishables in the wake of the 'pink sauce' thing, and your vid was eye opening about all the things that were wrong about that scandal. Great video!
Thank you so much for this video! This is exactly what I was needing, in the planning stages of my cookie business & trying to figure out packaging & happy to hear that other people are vacuum sealing!
Thank you so much! I’m starting to work on my baked goods business and finding your videos have been soooo helpful!! I don’t even like to comment but I love your energy! ❤
Wow you are so awesome! I’m not even in the food business, but I wanted to send candy as a cute extra along with bracelets I make and learned a lot from this video!
Youre so awesome! Thank you for sharing this amazing and informative content. I am so surprised that this video doesn't have more views, people are sleeping on you! I look forward to placing an order soon. Best of luck on your business!
This video was so helpful! Thank you so much for the extra advice. I would love to learn more from you. I’m at the beginning stages of starting a baking business and I need all the advice and tips I can get! And you seem very knowledgeable and relatable.
Thank you very much! The information you gave was very informative. I am about to start a new business and shipping was one of my concerns. Still is a little. I did not even think about freezing wow. Thank you wish I could call you up with more questions
I think you just gave me so much hope for my business in this video. I am starting a business growing microgreens plants that you eat and add to sandwiches, smoothies, salads, etc. In the industry pretty much no one ships and they focus on selling in local area. I am open to doing only that but if there is a chance and way to successfully ship them, I want to be the one or one of the few that find a way. 🙌
Super helpful video, thanks! I want to send treats to my son and his wife who are stationed in S. Korea. Now I can do it with confidence 😊 And no, it's definitely not fur😂
I loved everything about this video and your personality! This was so informative. I'm trying to help my sister figure out how to ship coquito (Spanish eggnog) to another state.
Thanks for the info! Can you show or tell us how you’re vacuum sealing your products for shipment? Do you put the box of bloodies in a plastic bag and then vacuum seal it, and do you vacuum seal the ice packs inside the plastic bag that the box of bloodies are in too?
I’m sending a few peaches in a flat rate box to my brother in Texas, 2 day shipping, wrapped them individually in parchment, bubble wrap & foam sides is that ok or should I ship ups?fed ex? Is post office ok?
I live in Houston. Ship it to me!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 No but for real, thank you soo much for this video. I make bread and people have been asking if I ship it. You just saved my life!!!
Thank you for the info. Just a question, where do you get cheap boxes for shipping. Me and my wife just started a home based moroccan cookies and your expertise would help us
Really good info here. With my business, the biggest hurdle I've encountered is shipping cost. Because my items need to stay refrigerated, (part of my business is pre-formed cookie dough)I haven't found a solution that I can pass along to the customer. I currently use USPS or UPS. As you know, overnight shipping is very expensive. Most people are not going to spend $40-50 just on shipping for a product that's costing them $25-30. This time of year I can use standard, or 2 day air, but during the summer I can't.
thank you this is informative. I was really hoping you would talk a little more about the how to's of shipping internationally. please do a video on that
Thank you for the helpful tips! I have spices and coffees I'm just always trying to learn more about food and business. Ways to improve my business and the customer experience.
You are the best! Thank you so much for this informative video you have a new sub! So many people have so much info that they don’t want to share because they’re scared of an over saturated commerce but the food industry can literally never be like that so that you for sharing this information! (Ps, you can freeze marshmallows 😊)
Hi, do you freeze cookies, brownies etc sealed in their own pouch (which goes directly to the box when ready to ship)? Or do you only put them in a sealed pouch AFTER taking the baked goods out of the freezer?
you can, but the question is should you. maybe i'm wrong, but i'd venture to say most bean-to-bar makers really frown on it, especially for milk chocolate since it has more fat and sugar. i mean, hershey-level 'chocolate' no one would think twice about, it's junk to begin with. i just doubt craft chocolate makers have this in mind when they ship a product as evidenced by watching many of their videos and not a single one of them freezes it. dunno for sure, though....
@@manlymcstud8588 I actually make chocolate bean to bar. It’s not frowned upon. Seeding the chocolate stabilizes it, it’s best to vacuum seal it prior to freezing it; however, doing so does not affect the taste, texture, or quality. You can actually freeze up to a year.
@@MayneJaxon you don't have a problem with blooming or condensation as the bar defrosts? i've heard of them freezing the beans, just not the finished product cuz they suggest temperatures to eat and store at (67-70F). just relaying what i've heard, not trying to change your methods.
Heyyy ... Thanks much for this lovely experience you shared. Got a lot of help for a beginner like me thinking to ship some homemade chocolates 🍫...Thanks again dear 😍
@@blondery thank you so much for the response. I’ve been contemplating how to ship them for months! I definitely chose a complex product to ship 😅 I will take your advice, thank you!
