Spotlight on Women-Owned Brands: Innovation and Inspiration

In today’s landscape, supporting women-owned businesses is a powerful way to champion diversity, sustainability, and creativity. Four standout brands—Flour and Olive, Stroop Club, Madly Hadley, and Verve Culture—exemplify innovation, authenticity, and a dedication to craft.

Each of these businesses has a unique story that will inspire and delight.

1. Flour and Olive: Elevated Artisanal Olive Oil Cakes

Flour and Olive, founded by passionate food entrepreneur Estelle Sohne, merges a love of cooking with a commitment to high-quality ingredients.

Paired with our premium olive oils and balsamic vinegar, they are the perfect cake for home chefs looking to elevate their culinary creations. Their Olive Oil Cake Mixes reflect a harmonious blend of traditional and modern flavors, including Vanilla, Chocolate, Almond, and Ginger.

Why We Love Them: Flour and Olive celebrates the artistry of baking with our premium olive oils and balsamic vinegar. We recommend pairing Flour and Olive cake mixes with our Orange Olive Oil, Lemon Olive Oil, Coratina, or even our flavored inflused white balsamic like Honey Ginger for a sweet and savory cake.

2. Stroop Club: A Taste of Dutch Delight

Co-founded by Chantal Piët, Stroop Club brings authentic Dutch stroopwafels (caramel-filled waffles) to global audiences.

With recipes rooted in tradition, Stroop Club crafts treats that are as delicious as they are ethical, using organic ingredients and focusing on sustainable production. Whether enjoyed with coffee or gifted as a sweet token, their stroopwafels evoke nostalgia and warmth.
