Simsbury Teens Running Successful Crepe Business

Editor’s note: We published this story earlier in the week, but here it is again in case you missed it.

Two Simsbury High School students have started their own successful crepe making business, reports the Hartford Courant.

Last summer, Laure Guibert and Grace Neagoy bought two crepe-makers, a handful of ingredients, and spread the word that Les Crêpes Françaises was open for business.

The girls have made sweet and savory crepes for graduation parties, baby showers, wedding showers, Christmas parties, birthday parties, and more.

Guibert and Neagoy charge a flat rate of $200, which covers expenses, time, and 30 crepes. Each additional crepe is $3 per crepe.

The girls met in school when Guibert moved to West Simsbury from France. She couldn’t speak English and though Neagoy doesn’t speak much French, they were able to connect over their love of making crepes.
