When I am not writing for a horse pharmaceutical company or Substack, I like to take my creativity to the kitchen and Instagram through my very own café.
The elevator pitch
I absolutely love coffee. It’s no secret, especially if you hear the pace at which I speak (no correlation, I’m sure.)
Upon graduating from college, I stumbled upon a problem.. it wasn’t realistic to buy coffee out every day. I still wanted the whimsy of a fun flavor, while maintaining the quality of a coffee I bought for $8.
One Breville Bambino later, Café Bella was born. I started making syrups and baking and forcing my friends to come over and test the weird concoctions I was coming up with.
I then took my advertising skills and translated that into an Instagram page, where I chronicle the coffees and baked goods I make, as well as review some cool places I try.
Winter Menu

Carrot cake latte
Inspired by my love of carrot cake, this latte blends spicy and warm seasonings, brown sugar, and shredded carrots. I usually pair it with a nutmeg cold foam.

Mocha
Thick chocolate sauce paired with espresso, just like a classic mocha but on the rich side.

Peppermint mocha
The same thick chocolate sauce used in the mocha, but this time with some peppermint extract and topped with crushed candy canes. Tastes like winter in a cup.
