How can you highlight this woman’s bakery but never mention her location, don’t provide a link to her site or social media platform?

Google was flawlessly accommodating to me. I haven't even watched the video yet, and "fleurs et sel" took me straight to that exact location. I don't live in Los Angeles, but did instantly know that that's where I'd have to be to visit her establishment.

Say what you want about America, but I don’t believe many countries have such an entrepreneurial vibe about them. I believe this is what the ‘American dream’ really means. If you can dream it, you can make it

@lf1496 Месяц назад

And not many countries have homeless encampments and FENTANYL addicts overdosing on the streets. This is propaganda, the cities have people paying $4000 for a one bedroom apartment, no universal healthcare, the highest black woman maternal death rate and 1 woman had a successful cookie business and the horror of the average citizen is wiped away? Open your eyes 👀🙄🙄

I FOUND her location (she named her shop AFTER her 2 FAVORITE things flowers & salt)!! 5300 W. Adams Blvd. Suite 100 Los Angeles, California 90016 * We will have a delicious selection of cookie flavors available for purchase in the shoppe: Bakery Hours: Wednesday 5/8 (12-5PM) Thursday 5/9 (12-5PM) Saturday, 5/11 (10AM - 4PM) She DOES NOT ship orders & I’m assuming it’s because her SHOP is fairly NEW!!

Rightfully, I assumed it's a play on *_FLOUR,_** apropos to 🍪👩🏽‍🍳.* 😉🤓😌

@Salomon82 25 дней назад

As a French person. You cannot spell Flowers in French in plural without “Les” so the name is a grammar error but she’s located in L.A and most people don’t even know the words are French with spelling error

I hope she more successful than Candace Nelson, Sprinkles Cupcake founder. 🧁🍪🧁🍪I still don't quite understand how you pronounce the name of her bakery or what that word means in English. It would've been nice if they talked about how she picked that name for her bakery. I am truly happy she had the business acumen, A1 credit, and drive to start and continue on with this amazing business.

I named Fleurs et Sel™ bakery after my two favorite things: flowers and salt. I spent part of my teenage years living in France, experiencing the country’s magical boulangeries and the French joie de vivre. Paris is my second home and the French language holds a very special place in my heart. I named Fleurs et Sel™ bakery after my two favorite things: flowers and salt.
