i’ve been building a coffee dessert brand and Saturday is the reveal for… THE coconut lemonade parfait! coffee banana bread, coffee jelly, and an espresso syrup, all built on coffee that’s been cofermented with coconut and lemon, so the beans themselves taste like coconut lemonade. it’s vegan, and it doesn’t taste like a compromise. serving it Saturday 12 to 3, at principles BK in Brooklyn. around nyc this weekend? come thru and judge for yourself, first come first serve.

hi 👋 i'm throwing my first pop up and I'd love to see you there! <3 📍 July 18, 12–3pm @ Principles BK in brooklyn! a collab w/ Queens Qoffee Qollective, a local roaster. 3 desserts, each built around one of their coffees. It's been a while, and i've missed you all. I've been developing recipes from scratch to make single origin coffee actually shine as an ingredient. The coffee butter chocolate chip cookies have been selling at a cafe in chinatown for months, and I've been working toward this ever since - 3 brand new desserts! farcaster-exclusive sneak peak: one's my first ever vegan dessert, a coconut lemon coferment coffee banana bread parfait w/ coffee jelly, served w/ a coconut lemon coffee soda. r&d's been so fun but i miss gathering everyone the most tbh. still chasing serendipity, just with more coffee now!! more pop ups, coworking meetups, dessert tastings in the works... this is just the start! small batches - come early!

did you know coffee just had its biggest single-day jump of the century? beat every crypto that day, eth included 😭 it's a whole meme among baristas rn

everyone’s resurfacing… so hi 👋 i’ve been quiet because I started a new adventure i’m building Forte → @forte.ny (insta) 🍪 coffee-infused brown butter chocolate chip cookies sold at a viet cafe in chinatown currently i’m experimenting with a Lapsang Souchong (smoked tea) cookie but it is bullying me 😭 irl cookie tastings soon maybe?

We need a tech version of “product empties.” Call it AI empties: used 75% of Claude this week (me: mostly while baking 🍞 / sourcing rare ingredients) What did you burn through?

happy belated new years!!

Coffee butter chocolate chip cookie 🍪

I think I accidentally invented coffee butter chocolate chip cookie tuille?

Me and my cookies have to be photoshoot ready in less than 2 hours 💀 I have been in the kitchen on my feet for the last 5 hours

The baking gods are not shining favorably upon me and I am struggling

frozen berries are a waste of freezer space. fight me

The # of claw clips in my hair indicates the intensity

ice skates and chocolate chip cookies 🥵

Kitchen countertops are so tall my whole upper body is sore. Do I… wear heels in the kitchen??
