People are always surprised to learn that we are way more than just a cookie shop! Whenever someone steps into our bakeshop for the first time, they are excited to learn that we sell more than just cookies, but have grown to include cakes, cupcakes, scones, squares, and more on our menu alongside the many items we carry in our Confetti Collective!

During the pandemic, I was a Nurse educator at the University teaching Nursing. I saw and felt the direct impact of Covid on frontline staff, patients, families, caregivers, teachers, and the entire population. As a nurse on the frontline I found I had no outlet for caring and rejuvenating my mind. I needed healing and relaxation, but there was no place to go.

I’ve always loved discovering new Indigenous businesses to support and I love subscription boxes. I realized that there wasn’t a box on the market that was made by Indigenous people, with us in mind, but for anyone to enjoy. I wanted to create something that would help Canadians discover and appreciate the diversity of Indigenous business in Canada.

People are very surprised to learn how technically diverse we are in the many aspects of IT from hardware to software.

We listen to our customers and will pivot and shift to accommodate their needs when called upon.
