THE IZOLA CHOCOLATE CROISSANT
Four bars of delectable Valrhona chocolate...96 layers of Normandy butter...each takes us 4 days to make and over 3 hours to proof. Yet takes Jenny only 3 minutes and 30 seconds to finish one.
We're talking about our Chocolate Croissant.
And when you get a smiley face when you slice one open like Chef Lane did when she was doing a QC check, that means many delicious croissants are coming your way....
You can now enjoy hot from the oven croissants and sourdough every day of the week!
OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK
7a - 2p
In a rush and have a pre-order? Just call us at the bakery when you arrive, and we'll bring your order out to your car with a smile! We call it IZOLA Drive By.
LESS THAN 20 DAYS LEFT...
Please join me and Jenny THIS THURSDAY for an ONLINE INVESTOR INFORMATION EVENT. We'll share milestones achieved and future as we enter the final weeks to invest in IZOLA's Future.
That means your chance to own a stake in the company that is revolutionizing artisan baking is coming to a close.
As you know, the IZOLA Core team spent much of 2024 developing new recipes, completing our Automation R&D project and opening IZOLA's Faultline Park location. Following an on-time opening, and now with IZOLA operationally profitable, we set an all-time record gross sales of more than $270,000 last month (March 2025). That is more than 6x the revenue of the average bakery in the United States. And we continue delighting our guests with hot-from-the-oven croissants and sourdough and warm hospitality. IZOLA is one of the highest-rated restaurants in the city. What do we need to grow you ask?.....Capital Investment. We are building a distribution network of bakeshops, grocery stores, and direct-to-consumer channels. It's efficient and scalable with good margins.
We are primed to grow and we hope you will consider supporting our mission of elevating human potential by creating high-quality jobs with training and coaching. But hurry – our investment opportunity ends in less than 20 days on April 28th.
Just remember: once this round closes, you may not get another chance to invest at this stage of IZOLA's growth. The share price will change from the current $2.20.
We believe that ours is a big mission, and we're incredibly grateful for the support and encouragement of the great community. Join us online this Thursday April 10th at 4p.
Important Note: Investments will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis. In order to be included in this round, we strongly encourage you to fund your investment as soon as possible. We'll update you promptly if you don’t make it into this funding round. Any investments received after hitting the maximum funding amount will be refunded.
Equity crowdfunding investments in private placements, and start-up investments in particular, are speculative and involve a high degree of risk and those investors who cannot afford to lose their entire investment should not invest in start-ups. Companies seeking startup investment through equity crowdfunding tend to be in earlier stages of development and their business model, products and services may not yet be fully developed, operational or tested in the public marketplace. There is no guarantee that the stated valuation and other terms are accurate or in agreement with the market or industry valuations. Further, investors may receive illiquid and/or restricted stock that may be subject to holding period requirements and/or liquidity concerns.
CONGRATULATIONS CHEF COLIN!
Please join us in congratulating Chef Colin on his promotion to Production Lead. From his first day here at IZOLA (almost 1 year ago!), it was clear we were super lucky to have him on the team. Colin comes to IZOLA each and every day with his whole heart. He lives and breathes the IZOLA mission and vision, and walks through the halls of IZOLA like an owner - he takes action if he sees something wrong, he is constantly seeking to improve our service and processes each day, he follows the 5S system, jumps in to help teammates and so much more.
Colin, it's been a true honor this past year, and we are so excited for your continue future growth here at IZOLA. Thank you for the tremendous investment you've made in IZOLA and your faith in our mission and vision for our community.
Cheers,Chef JB and Jenny
IZOLA FOOD COSTS
We announced last week that recent tariffs increased our ingredient costs by 10-30%(just changed to 86%)...butter from France, olives from Greece and Morocco, vanilla from Tahiti, Chili Crisp from China and many more. We are working to minimize the impact on you and we will communicate the changes to our menu as more information becomes available.
