Fancy Pancake Dancin'
So, I'm looking for some opinions here:
My sister and I are looking into the possibility of blending and selling specialty pancake/waffle and quickbread/muffin mixes, likely via Etsy. As part of our exploratory market research, I want to know: what features would make you want to buy such a product? I mean, besides the "Hello! My name is: Pancake" sticker on the front (we do intend to use those as labels). A couple thoughts: Maria and I rock the healthy, whole-grain thing really well (I'm obsessed with oats), even in ways that don't taste so...whole-grainy; we've got a good lead on a wide variety of freeze-dried fruit; our spice racks totally pwn; we're not adverse to challenging the form with other inspirations, like, say, pumpkin pie or maple granola, or even something more out there like mole negro. So, comment with some feature you would want to see, whether it's an ingredient, a restriction, or a larger inspiration.
On another note, like everyone else, it seems, these days, I've made a Muxtape. I have the suspicion that far more of these have been made than listened to, but there it is. I'm already thinking about how I want to tweak it, so by no means consider it set in stone.
