NEW NEW NEW....
Happening this Thursday: We'll be dropping not 1...not 2...but 3 new items! Hooray!
First up is our newest limited-edition sourdough, Fig & Fennel. Each loaf is filled with over half a pound of dried Smyrna figs, accented with toasted fennel seeds. Yes, these are two very polarizing flavors, but we think they make for an oh-so-satisfying snack.
Smyrna Figs are sweet and slightly nutty. Originally grown in Turkey in the town of Izmir, once known as Smyrna, they are now also cultivated in California, where our dried figs were grown. We fill each hand-shaped loaf with over half a pound of Smyrna Figs, sprinkled with toasted fennel seeds, which provide warmth and complexity.
Available for a short time only!
We love eating it drizzled with honey and topped with a little cheese, like mascarpone or ricotta. Mmm. The bakeshop sells jars of locally grown honey, harvested by Stone Canyon Farm in Escondido, which is available in very limited quantities.
Pre-order now, or pop on by. For IZOLA Drive-By, just call us at 619-289-8358 when you're outside, and we'll deliver your order out to your car!
We're baking hot from the oven every Tuesday - Sunday from 7a-2p.
WAKE UP WITH IZOLA
You've been asking for it for a loooong time and we are finally delivering! If you read our email last week where we shared how it's taken us over 700 tests to arrive at the croissant that we serve today, you know that we are very intentional with all of our flavors, and that includes our drinks menu too.
Today we launched our new IZOLA Vanilla Bean Latte. Made with house made vanilla bean syrup from Madagascar vanilla beans and organic sugar, we hope you'll find it to be a sweet start to your day!
We are now also offering caramel too!
HAPPY LUNAR NEW YEAR
This week's theme is new - new sourdough, new drinks and a new (lunar) year! Jenny and I want to wish those celebrating a happy Lunar New Year. We'll be celebrating by trying our hand at hand pulled noodles - the longer the noodle, the longer the life, so I'm going to try and make mine the length of the kitchen. 🤣
PRICE GOES UP IN TWO WEEKS!
If you have considered investing in IZOLA, our current per unit offering ends at midnight on February 15th.
We are on a mission to change the way Americans experience sourdough and croissants. Some have wondered why we want to scale beyond our single location, and the simple reason is that with scale, we can scale our impact.
We want to provide a healthy return for those who have invested in IZOLA. Scale creates more growth opportunities for our team while creating more living-wage+ jobs for our community, too (50 are planned for IZOLA Main in City Heights). Scale allows us to share IZOLA with the greater Southern California community and offer great-tasting food with exceptional hospitality, served hot from the oven.
Each investment in IZOLA helps us achieve our goals of building our new production facility in City Heights, expanding IZOLA's sales, providing job training, opening new bread cafes, and improving our technology. Watch our short webinar or visit our Microventures portal to learn how this redevelopment will improve profit margins while creating jobs in a zero-emission dough factory.
If you're ready to invest, just click the "INVEST" button on the top right hand side of the page. You can invest as little as $1000.
Please remember that investing is risky...most small businesses fail, so please don't invest more than you can afford to lose.
