At Woodend FM

A couple, arms laden with goodies from the other stalls, came up to the pink stall with an incredulous look on their faces.

Gentleman: Beetroot! This I gotta see.

Lady: Is that what makes the pink?

Me: Right you are! Would you like a taste?

Chorus: Yes, please!

I proceeded to hand them a taste of each flavour explaining the ingredients and the process of making them. After each tasting the gentleman described the taste and texture so beautifully I was, in fact, mesmerised by his words. I’m afraid I could not remember them here but suffice it to say, he sounded like a food critic or food blogger. A foodie for sure!

Gentleman: This is delicious, amazing. Very good quality. (he said while savoring the last flavour, Dark Cacao) Oh wow! The cacao hits you right at the end! Ummmm

Lady: This is fantastic, just what we’re looking for! (she said elatedly)

Me: Thank you! We put a lot of love into each one!

Lady: Yes, that is clear. We’re chefs and we’re about to offer breakfast in our restaurant and we need something to go with panna cotta, yes it’s a thing now—panna cotta for breakfast— to make it more exciting.

Me: Yes! Just like this! (I went around to join them in front to show them the panna cotta topped with PM in the display banner)

Chorus: Exactly!

Me: Yes, it does go very well with panna cotta. Also with porridge, custard, desserts, salads…the possibilities are endless! (we share happy lolz)

Lady: Yay! What an incredible find, so happy we came here today. Well then we have to choose now. (they discuss between themselves) I reckon the first one, Berries, would be the best on panna cotta. And I love the Dark Cacao. Question, what is the largest size you sell?

Me: We do have one kilo bags online. But you can order ahead and we can bring it to the market for you if you like.

Lady: Excellent! We’ll take the Berries for now and the Cacao and we’ll check you out online too!

Me: Beautiful! Thank you so much!

Chorus: No, thank you! This was an amazing find!

Chefs are in the pink!
