Local, luxurious chocolatier business Braw has now opened a Braw Pop up shop in Limerick City Centre.
Braw is a start-up that makes chocolates and baked goods that is in expansion mode with a new outlet at the back of the People’s Museum of Limerick at 2 Pery’s Square.
A Limerick-based chocolatier business, established under Anna Coffey Lynch that is taking Limerick by storm. Anna is an exceptionally talented pastry chef who spent four years in the position of Head Chocolatier in Cocoa Atelier, which is in Dublin. Anna has also worked in many renowned Irish restaurants including Adare Manor.
Talking about Braw, Anna Coffey Lynch said “Just before the pandemic struck, I began a role as a pastry chef in The Good Room, Adare. After being laid off, I accidentally started a business selling baked goods to friends and family. I started out by delivering care package-style boxes to doorsteps of friends and soon I was getting requests from friends of customers.”
Braw was developed during the initial pandemic in 2020 and has since provided luxurious and handcrafted goods through its delivery service. Since the business has proved to be so successful, owner Anna Coffey Lynch has decided that it is time to set up a Braw Pop-up shop to further extend the pastry business.
Speaking on the new endeavor, Anna said “By summer 2020, I was delivering all over Ireland. I was presented with an opportunity to begin wholesale supply to cafes and restaurants, so I needed a permanent premise from which to work and based the business at Crossagalla industrial estate, Ballysimon Road.”
“The venture had grown quickly to beyond a home baking business. I now have two other chefs in the kitchen and two other employees. We supply several cafes in Munster with a view to increasing this bakery wholesale later this year.”
This week Braw is celebrating their first year in business. There will be treats for all customers in the Braw pop-up shop at Peoples Museum to celebrate their first birthday.
The Braw Pop up shop opens every Friday and Saturday from 11 am to 3.30 pm.
