Preorders for my business anniversary dinner will close on Monday, Oct. 2nd 🎉

Make sure you get your preorders in before then! You`ll still be able to get food on the day of but when we sell out then that`s it.

Combos are only available if you preorder. Everything on the day of will be available for purchase individually. So you do save money if you preorder 🙌🙌🙌 Link in bio 🔥

Pork Adobo is a childhood favorite of mine. My mom packed adobo and rice for my lunch all the time when I was a kid. Also Lumpia is life so I can`t wait for y`all to taste my version of it.

I`m so excited to share her recipes with everyone and celebrate 3 years of Girls Gotta Eat Good 😊

Also we are celebrating @thaitimetn`s 1-yr anniversary as well. Jay and his family are amazing people 🤩

Please come support both our businesses with Filipino cuisine & Thai desserts 😍😍😍

Social Media Marketing is so hard these days 😭🥹

Sometimes I just do not have the mental energy to come up with posts even when so much stuff is happening.

So I`ll try to get all my announcements in one post:

😋 NEW Fall dessert alert: Say hello to the Brown Sugar Banana Mochi Muffin 🍌

Think banana bread with chocolate chips, honey, brown sugar and the sweet and subtle chewiness of mochi 😋

It is gluten free and absolutely delicious.

Available this Saturday, Sept. 30 at the Farmers Market in Market Square from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. 🥰

Apple Cinnamon Mochi Cake is baaaack as well.

Thank you so much to the people that have been coming to my markets and helping me sell out especially during home football games. 🙏😭

I`ve heard from many business owners that their sales are drastically slowing down and it is affecting wholesale orders.

Plz continue to support my wholesale accounts. I really appreciate it.

Preorders for my business anniversary dinner will close on Oct. 2. Go ahead and get your preorders in for that when you can (link in bio). 💓

Thank you for the love and support 😘 I`ll see you Saturday at the Farmers Market.

Hello friends 😀

LOTS of cool stuff to celebrate 🎉

I want to invite you to my 3-yr Business Anniversary dinner pop-up. Last year we had something a lil fancy and this year I was so wiped out by the Asian Festival (in a good way) that I decided to do something more affordable and low key for everyone !!

So we are doing a Filipino dinner pop-up at @thaitimetn 💓

The menu will consist of Pork Adobo with garlic rice, Mushroom Adobo with garlic rice (gluten-free/vegan), cheese lumpia (vegetarian) and pork lumpia 🤤🤤🤤

This is for everyone that has ever asked me for LUMPIA ! This is your chance to get some. 🔥🔥

Preorders are available on my website right now (link in bio). I highly recommend doing preorders because it will save you some money and help me know how much to cook 😀

You will be able to show up and order food on the day of as long as we are not sold out. This is also why preordering is a good idea because it`ll guarantee your order is reserved.

Dessert & drinks will be by @thaitimetn - shout-out to Jay and his family for hosting me 🙏🙏🙏

Josh of @seoulbrothersknox will be my Sous Chef for the evening 💓

It`s going to be a fun event. Plz come support and celebrate with me!!

P.S. I got my first tattoo today. (Swipe to see) Design by @perenniall.y and tattooed by @ink.slingingslasher 🥰🥰

Now go preorder some delicious food and please share 🙏 🎉

💓 It`s back to baking!!! 💓

I`ll be back at the Farmers Market in Market Square this Saturday, Sept. 9 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. 💜

I`ll have Ube Crinkles, Ube Cheesecake Brownies, Ube & Pandan Bibingka, and Peach Mochi Cake 😍

I have some new followers so I just want to go over how my business works and how you can get some delicious treats each week 😋

So I primarily sell via the farmers market every Saturday (swipe to see the schedule for this month) 👀

I update my website and post my pop-up schedule at the beginning of each month. You can always check my website via link in my bio or the pop-up highlights on my page.

I also do catering orders, custom orders, and online orders.

I ask for at least one week in advance for most orders. Two weeks if it is a large order.

If you want to order for pickup at the Farmers Market, you need to order by Wednesday of that week. 🎉

I have a few wholesale accounts that consistently have my stuff each week. I do a treat drop for @partialcafe on Wednesdays and treat drops for @tealicioustn & @dumplingsteaknoxville on Fridays. Please check my story/posts for when these drops are happening. I almost always post on my story with updates.

I have worked really hard/invested money to be able to put this info on my website/social media platforms. Please take the time to check out my website and place your orders there.

I am just one person and the amount of DM`s I get sometimes is overwhelming. If you can find the info on my website, I`d really appreciate it 💓💓💓

Taking a little break has shown me that it`s okay to set some work/personal life boundaries in place. Please be kind & respectful to small business owners, we are doing our best 🙏

Hope to see you at the Farmers Market on Saturday 🥰🥰🥰

I thought I`d go ahead and do my THANK YOU post because I`m going to be recharging for the next week and that means less social media. 🎉🎉🎉

The @knoxasianfestival was a huge success and almost 1,000 treats and drinks later I cannot believe we sold out 😭🙏🥰

I prayed and prayed that this event would be a success and I`m so thankful for each and every person that came to see me.

I`m in tears thinking about all the love and support. From people stopping by to buy treats to the ppl that pre-ordered and to every person that just messaged me to say good luck and they are thinking about me 😭

And to all the amazing AAPI businesses that worked so hard. I love our community and how we all help each other. 🥹💓

I`m not going to lie. It was so hard and so taxing on my body. I`m going to take the next week to rest and take care of myself.

I could not have done it without my partner Cam. He was there with me helping doing prep and just completely busting his butt loading our cars and hauling things back and forth. 💓 I`m so lucky 🥹 and to my amazing mama for sitting in the heat with me and helping me out.

I hope I didn`t forget anyone. I appreciate you all so so so much 💗

Next farmers market is Sept. 9 so until then....😴😴😴😴

We baked and packaged 500 cookies today for the @knoxasianfestival 🤪🫠😱

I`m baking/making over 1,000 items for this event - my BIGGEST event of the year 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Please come and support my business and all the other amazing AAPI businesses that are busting it this week to make Saturday a wonderful event 🙏💓

I have never worked so hard for something in my life. But I know it`s all worth it because I`ll be able to use this money for my partner and I`s future and for the future of my business 🥹

I love what I do - even when I`m lathering my back with Icy Hot and my shoes are covered in flour 🤣

Tips & Tricks for Saturday:
-Come early 🔥 festival starts at 11 a.m. 🥰
-My booth is F2. It`s located at the bottom of World`s Fair Park in the lawn area with the big water fountains down from the Maker Exchange Building 💓
-If you preordered a box, you were sent instructions. PLZ pick your box up on Sat. August 26 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

I am not expecting to sell out super early so plz plz still come find me even if you come to the festival later in the afternoon. I am making a ton so that I can last longer than last year.

I am so thankful for my amazing support system. Shout out to @soknosourdough for being a great bake partner today.

I will see y`all on Saturday 🥰🇵🇭🥰

Wooooo. Life has been a whirlwind lately and I feel like I haven`t done life updates on here in a while. 🫠 but I`m ready to give y`all ALL the updates haha.

For those that are new to my page, hello! I`m Jessica Carr, the Filipina chef & baker & owner of Girls Gotta Eat Good Asian Bakery 💓

I started my business in Sept. of 2020 so we are approaching my 3 year business anniversary 🤩

I honestly can`t believe it sometimes and I`ve been so busy these last two weeks that I haven`t had time to really reflect on the growth my business has seen these last couple of years.

I have 5 total wholesale partners now. 🥹🙏🥰 And I`m about to do my SECOND @knoxasianfestival easily my biggest event of the year!

Thank you thank you thank you for all your support with these new wholesale partners and for showing up to these locations, supporting their amazing businesses, buying my treats and showing your love for my lil Asian Bakery 💓

Important things coming up:
🇵🇭 @knoxasianfestival is on Saturday, August 26 from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. in World`s Fair Park. You can still preorder a treat box until August 18 (preorder link in bio) 🎉🎉🎉 I will put the treat boxes in bags this year so you can easily carry it while walking around (thank you for that feedback everyone!)

💓 No customer orders from August 22 to Sept. 5. You can find me at the Asian Festival for treats !

🥰 I`m taking a vacation from August 28 to Sept. 5 after the craziness of the Asian Festival. Only two of my wholesale accounts will have stuff that week. Check my story for updates on that.

I`ll be at the Farmers Market this Saturday, August 19 so be sure to stop by Market Square from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
