Look Out Melbourne!!!

Well it has only taken me 7 months to settle in to a new pace of life in Melbourne, but I feel like I'm ready to take on the Roocke Cookie venture once again.
I have been researching local markets in Melbourne, and whilst there are masses to choose from, I am faced with the same battles I have encountered previously - public liability insurance, council approval/permits and costs.
The most promising looks to be the Docklands Sunday Market, so I am making initial enquiries this week with the City of Melbourne Council. In the meantime, my husband has suggested it may be an opportune time for his work colleagues to sample some of my products, so it looks as though the apron will come out once again tomorrow afternoon. The gorgeous girls at work organised a custom made "Roocke Cookies - Head Chef" apron upon my departure from the Hobart office. Love it!
Glad to have my enthusiasm back after all these months. Got ideas for Christmas packs etc but will just see how October/November pans out first.

  1. Hi Katrina, It's great to hear you are venturing into the Melbourne markets with Roocke Cookies. I have been busy this year with markets myself, although one fell thru & another has been cancelled, leaving me with no confirmed spots prior to xmas! I hope to get to one in early Dec though. Great to hear you have settled into life in the big smoke. Can't wait to hear how things go with "Roocke Cookies" - keep us posted! Sonia xo
