Chelsea Approved's Sweet Success at the UVMMC Pop-Up Market
November, 2023 - Emily Austin
The holiday season is a time of joy, celebration, and, of course, delicious treats. This year, the University of Vermont Medical Center (UVMMC) hosted its first-ever Pop-Up Market, and it was a fantastic opportunity for UVMMC employees to showcase their talents and products. Among the many stalls, the Chelsea Approved team was there, spreading the word about their gluten-free and vegan baking mixes. As co-founder Chelsea, a Registered Dietitian at UVMMC, had a special connection to this event, they were thrilled to participate in the market and introduce their mouthwatering creations to the community.
A Sweet Start
The Chelsea Approved team set up their stall with a tempting display of their baking mixes, which cater to those with gluten-free and vegan dietary preferences. At the heart of their offerings were their Chocolate Chip Cookie Mix, Snickerdoodle Cookie Mix, Banana Bread Mix, and Pancake Mix. Excitingly, they also had samples of their upcoming Brownie Mix and Sugar Cookie Mix, set to be available in just a couple of weeks.
Connecting with the Community
The Pop-Up Market was abuzz with enthusiastic shoppers and talented artisans. The Chelsea Approved team embraced this festive atmosphere, eagerly sharing their gluten-free and vegan baking mixes with attendees. They were genuinely excited to connect with people who were gluten-free, vegan, or had friends and family with dietary restrictions. This holiday season, Chelsea Approved's mixes offered a solution for everyone.
The Taste Test
One of the highlights of the Chelsea Approved stall was undoubtedly the samples. Visitors flocked to their display, eager to try a bite of the delicious baked goods made from their mixes. The Chocolate Chip Cookies, Snickerdoodles, Banana Bread, Brownies, and Sugar Cookies were all a hit with attendees. The anticipation was palpable for their soon-to-be-released Brownies and Sugar Cookies.
Holiday Shopping with a Twist
The Chelsea Approved team was delighted to witness customers not only enjoying the taste of their gluten-free and vegan treats but also considering their mixes as holiday gifts. Many attendees purchased the baking mixes as thoughtful Christmas presents for their friends and loved ones who had dietary restrictions. It was heartwarming to see the Chelsea Approved brand becoming part of the holiday gifting tradition.
The Chelsea Approved team's participation in the UVMMC Pop-Up Market was a resounding success.
