Touch base with Caroline Merryman, founder and owner of Caroline’s Cookies

https://eatcarolinescookies.com/ Caroline, a 20 year old local business owner, came on to the podcast back in early 2021, about a year ago. Since then, she has gone from being an online & popup only cookie shop selling out of about 400-600 cookies in less than an hour to opening a full brick & mortar shop selling out thousands of cookies a day. We will talk about all that has happened over the past year, successes, challenges, and perhaps a glimpse at the future of this fast growing local business. — The Tea Podcast is proudly sponsored by The Music Academy of Acadiana & The Orchard, Authorized Service Providers of Apple.
