Mother opens cupcake bakery next door to daughter's dog bakery
FORT WALTON BEACH — Two bakeries now sit side-by-side with a lot in common, but their clientele are very different.
Cupcakes by the Beach is the newest shop in downtown Fort Walton Beach. Owner Vanessa Poch opened June 21 in the perfect location: Right beside her daughter.
“It just seemed right,” Vanessa said. “I wanted to do that niche market and this was the perfect location.”
Nicole Poch, Vanessa’s daughter, owns the animal bakery 3 Dogs and a Chick that was located in the Cupcakes by the Beach location for three years before moving recently to the former Coach and Four gift shop space next door.
The duo discussed plans for Vanessa to move in next door six months prior to the move.
“It seemed like the perfect little spot for a café or a bakery,” Nicole said. “I love her being next door. We pop in multiple times and check on each other.”
Nicole said that even though she and her mother each serve a different species of clients, their business paths cross often.
In the beginning, she said she gave her mother the tips she learned from three years working in the area.
Now, they share the same fresh ingredients and some of the same paying customers.
“It’s funny, the same people that spoil their dogs will also spoil themselves,” Nicole said. “They’ll walk from one store and then into the next.”
Vanessa said when decorating she wanted to keep the beach in mind, but take on the cute factor that owning a cupcake-only store requires.
A variety of cupcake liners, paper straws and cupcake accessories line the store and sit beneath chandeliers with cupcakes tearing down.
The brown and blue decorated shop offers all made-from-scratch cupcakes ranging from the el Diablo chocolate cupcake to a maple and bacon cupcake. Vanessa said her two bakers are constantly mixing and trying out new cupcakes to feature daily.
She said she has plans for a savory cupcake, a variety of daily specials and birthday parties in the shop, but she’s waiting on the future plans.
For now, she’s focusing on serving a delicious, sweet treat.
“People can try something that’s a little different when they’re here,” she said. “I want them to feel welcome, sit here and eat with their mom and enjoy themselves.
