🥐✨ 🇫🇷EXCITING ANNOUNCEMENT!🇫🇷✨🥐
Next week, I’ll begin training at a brand-new local French patisserie opening right here in our community!
I’m sure most of you have heard that we have a piece of Paris opening in Johnson City……..
🐝The French Honeybee Patisserie🐝
Before anyone worries—Generation Bakes is NOT going anywhere!
I’ll still be creating custom cakes, macarons, cookies, and treats for all of my wonderful customers.
What this opportunity DOES mean is that I’ll have the privilege of learning and working alongside talented bakers, and continuing to grow in the craft that I have come to love so much.
Taking this on due to my home life however took a lot of thought, prayer, talking it over with my family and considering how we live with me being an at home mom and homeschooling.
Given the fact that these are early morning shifts that are one to two times a week, simply going into the later morning, I feel very blessed that it actually jives VERY well with how we do life in our home. 
We have the summer to get used to this new rhythm and then my sweet daughter is old enough to help my sons get going on some schoolwork when we get back to it this fall and we actually started a practice this school year where one to two days a week we do our lessons in the afternoon and that gives me more time to work on your orders, get a nice long workout in, be in my garden, simply rest, or catch up on laundry and things like that.
 So what’s nice is sometimes my daughter can start the school day for me and I can come home and finish it and sometimes they can just hang out and get a little break in the morning and we can do our school days in the afternoon. 
The owners of this business are wonderful people and I would love to see all of you jump in and come and support them.  I went to Paris in October 2024 and I think about that city every single day. In the owner’s words, they are going to make you feel like you are in Paris when you are inside that little shop and it would be so delightful to give all of you a little piece of that here. 
So again, I just want to let all of you know that these are sweet little short shifts throughout the week and what I have been doing here with Generation Bakes is not going anywhere.
This will just be a beautiful expansion and a new opportunity and I can’t wait to feel feel like I’m working in Paris a couple of times a week and keep creating beautiful cakes for you. 
❤️ Chelsea
Generation Bakes
