GRAPEVINE — Michelle Allen is a Grapevine-based residence baker. She normally stays busy this time of yr, whipping up Valentine’s Day treats for her enterprise, Mellow Treats.
However this February has been busier than ever.
“I began baking on Monday, and it is mainly simply been from the time I rise up, to the time I am going to mattress each night time,” stated Allen.
“It bought to a degree the place I used to be overwhelmed and so I lower down what number of I might settle for.”
A number of weeks again, she posted on-line that her small enterprise would provide Tremendous Bowl cookie designs.
“Folks have been blowing me up about it! Some folks liked it, others I believe have been slightly triggered that I did not make precise cookies for the groups.”
She created a Taylor Swift themed Tremendous Bowl set, and orders went by the roof.
“I believed I would get, possibly tops 15 orders? So this was past something I may ever think about.”
She bought 51 dozen cookies, for a particular occasion she normally ignores.
“I normally skip [Super Bowl cookies] as a result of my clientele would not normally care.”

“This subsequent era, they wish to watch soccer now with their households. They wish to be part of it. It is kinda cool!”
