Meet Crystal Austin-Cowans of St Louis

Today we’d like to introduce you to Crystal Austin-Cowans.

Hi Crystal, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today?
I’ve been baking since I was 16 but I decided to start my business 6 years ago during Covid. I was the Baker girl in my apartment building and got told I should sell them during the Pandemic, and here we are!

Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
Being a Business Owner is Nowhere near smooth. The daily struggles of enough orders to make quota for the week, or no orders to help pay for life issues when they happen. Funding, timing, trying to keep customers and bring in new ones are Always a relevant daily factor.

Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know about your work?
I Love to Bake!! I specialize in A THC Bakery Online and Strawberry Pineapples cupcakes are Amazing!! I’m not going to say their what I’m known for but people Definitely love them. I would say that I’m most proud of actually still being in business after everything I’ve been through. The thing that sets me apart from everyone else is the Love that goes into Everything I bake and Do!!

We all have a different way of looking at and defining success. How do you define success?
I would say I define success as Not Stopping on your Goals. Striving to be the best version of yourself while Not letting anyone tell different.
