From Sweet Dreams to Sweet Success
A taste of the States in the heart of Yorkshire
Big Momma’s Waffles is the business dream come true for entrepreneurs and sisters Harpreet and Gurvinder Kaur.
They have always wanted to launch their own business and with Big Mommas Waffles they feel they have found the perfect recipe.
Harpreet and Gurvinder recognised an emerging trend for people looking for “dessert spots” while they are shopping and wanted to look for and find a suitable gap in the market.
So they explored their idea and, inspired by their own big momma “Jas” , developed their brand around their love for all things sweet; something different to get the taste buds watering and attract all ages. Which is why they have developed their offer and menu to include a range of sweet as well as savoury waffles, toasties and delicious milkshakes. A little something special for everyone to compliment the shopping experience.
Working with the Chamber’s Start Up team they were able to run their idea past a business adviser to make sure they had everything in place for a successful launch.
Harpreet and Gurvinders sweet taste and smell of success can be experienced at the white Rose Centre Leeds.
