In this episode of SIYB, I had a chance to sit with Or Lahat- one of the co-founders of Crumbs and Cream to talk about the brand’s origins and how they operate.

 

Crumbs and Cream is a local brand that started off in 2016 with their signature Ice-cream sandwiches. These sandwiches consist of two fresh cookies with scoops of ice cream sammiched in between them. You have a great deal of liberty while ordering your sandwiches as you sous-chef your way into picking the cookies’ flavours, the type of ice cream and also the toppings to go along! They also offer coffee, french crêpes, milkshakes and also stand-alone scoops of ice creams or cookies. 

 

Their new line of products includes packaged ice-cream sandwiches that are sealed and frozen for you to take on-the-go. They have a range of flavours (I love cookie monster) and also offer a pack of 9 where you can have the vastest variety and combinations of cookies and ice cream - with crazy toppings - in a small box! Apart from selling in their flagship store in Sea point, the tuktuk at the waterfront or even in Johannesburg, Crumbs & Cream offer catering services for birthdays and occasions, packaged ice creams for Engen garages (also work in progress) and deliveries through Uber Eats, Mr. Delivery and more! 

 

I loved talking to Or and I learned a lot about how the brand operates. It’s clear that a lot of planning and brainstorming goes into everything Crumbs and Cream does and their customers’ feedback speaks for it. Listening to Or’s story and how she manages everything gave me a new-found respect for the brand and I also have a better understanding of what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur. Risk. 

 

Anyway, I’m gonna go enjoy some ice-cream sammiches and hope you order some immediately. Thanks for listening!
