It was her passion for food and her intuitive sense of the marketplace
that inspired Susan Axelrod to introduce quiche to a world unfamiliar
with its rich textures and elegant flavors. Since setting up shop
in her small family kitchen thirty years ago, the company
she named Love and Quiches has become synonymous not only with quiche, but also with her
carefully selected, handcrafted line of desserts.
Susans children remember coming home from school and cracking
fresh eggs as their part in what was fast becoming the family
business. Susan drove her van between her home and New York City,
wholesaling her quiches to one restaurant, one gourmet shop at
a time. Before long, quiche became a restaurant staple.
Susans extraordinary line of desserts began as a simple request
from a loyal customer for pecan pie one with that special home-baked
taste her quiches were known for. Using all-natural ingredients,
including real butter and Georgia pecans, Susan developed her
now famous recipe, baked the pies and then froze them to capture
the just-baked flavor her customers requested. The rest is history.
The business outgrew the kitchen, the garage and a small,
local storefront. A four-year stint in a 5,800 sq. ft. industrial
park location was followed by the 65,000 sq. ft. state-of-the-art
facility that Love and Quiches Desserts calls home today.
As Love and Quiches Desserts has grown in size and capability,
Susan's passion for food has
likewise grown. Her continued commitment to traditional scratch
baking practices is reflected in the consistently excellent quality
of her products. Responsiveness to her clients' needs has secured
her reputation for reliable, attentive service. Susan's sharp
eye for trends has made her a pioneer and innovative leader in
the industry. Love and Quiches Desserts is her legacy to her family and to dessert
lovers around the
world.
