Here is some great food for thought! We all know that breakfast has been known as the meal for champions! It is what gives you energy to start the day off and put your best foot forward, ready to accomplish extraordinary things! Well, I am excited today to tell you about this champion, who is such an extraordinary entrepreneur that is making people smile all across America every morning, as she has taken the heart of Southern traditions straight to their doorstep with her made-by-hand mail order artisan biscuit business. She has succeeded at making her culinary vision a booming success no doubt. This award-winning baker is Carrie Morey and she owns Callie's Hot Little Biscuit company based out of Charleston, South Carolina.
Carrie has continued to expand her vision, just the way she sees it in such a beautiful, organic, authentic way that she is proud of, and she has turned her special dream into a huge reality...one that honors her mom Callie and her treasured recipe in such an outstanding way, as well as one that delights and brings joy to so many every day! What an incredible thing it has truly been to watch this extraordinary entrepreneur create an extraordinary business that is so meaningful to her and her family...sharing something they are so passionate about...and creating quite a massive, devoted national following along the way. Her main goal has been to make these amazing biscuits available to all in the country. With lots of hard work she has certainly done so, as her brand is widely recognized now as an iconic Southern brand with her Charleston grab-and-go eateries, her food truck & catering division in Charleston, national retail through her website, and her expansion into wonderful grocery markets throughout the nation. Carrie has gotten her famous made-by-hand biscuits as well as her other artisan products into Williams-Sonoma California, QVC, Goldbelly, The Fresh Market, Publix, Whole Foods nationally, and CostCo Northeast. They can be purchased online through her own Callie's Hot Little Biscuit website, Shop Today, or Freshdirect as well. Her handmade biscuits, artisan pimento cheeses, and other artisan goods have been awarded 24 sofi awards from the Specialty Foods Association and her eateries previously made the Fortune 100 Fastest-Growing Inner City Businesses list. Carrie has accomplished so much as a phenomenal entrepreneur and is such a remarkable business woman that is tremendously inspiring to so many!
I first learned of Carrie Morey and her famous hot little biscuits through the nationally broadcasted PBS culinary docu-series show that I have enjoyed watching, in which she stars in and is the focus of the show called, "How She Rolls." It is about biscuits, business, and balance in her life as an entrepreneur. She shares her life as wife, mother of three daughters, and entrepreneur to a booming business online, as well as with several eateries. I so loved watching the series for two seasons and am hoping that sometime soon there will be a third season on the horizon, as it has all been absolutely fascinating to watch in so many ways, especially as a female entrepreneur myself! You too can stream those two seasons of "How She Rolls" on PBS, Apple TV, and Prime Video today for all of the episodes to see how she is keeping the tradition of Southern biscuit making alive! Carrie is honoring the tradition of one of the South's oldest art forms along with forming some new, fantastic traditions of her own! I must say that the show has been one of my favorites!
As well as being a very successful and creative entrepreneur, culinary talent, and wonderful TV personality, Carrie Morey is also a great author and an inspiring motivational speaker. She has written two really awesome cookbooks: Callie's Biscuits & Southern Traditions (which is a cookbook and narrative on entrepreneurship and life in the Lowcountry), as well as Hot Little Suppers (a guide to cooking with families and friends). Carrie and her phenomenal products have been touted by TODAY, Good Morning America, Saveur, Food & Wine, and by Oprah in "O" The Oprah Magazine. They have also been featured and have received press in magazines such as: Southern Living, Bake From Scratch, Bon Appetit, Taste of Home, Town & Country, House Beautiful, Real Simple, Traditional Home, Travel & Leisure, Good Housekeeping, Coastal Living, as well as also from USA Today, The New York Times, The Washington Post, and others. She has appeared live on The NBC Today Show, The Martha Stewart Show, Fox & Friends, The Hallmark Channel, Top Chef, and QVC. Carrie has been profiled many times by The Food Network and Cooking Channel as well. Wow! On top of all that she is also quite the extraordinary, sought-after motivational speaker that presents such an inspirational message sharing her amazing journey with her fabulous stories, immense knowledge, valued business experience, and her core beliefs. I absolutely love that her main message reminds each of us to take absolute responsibility for building the lives we dream of, regardless of the circumstances. Carrie is definitely helping women entrepreneurs build something spectacular in ways that feel most authentic and are comfortable to them, and she is giving them such invaluable advice to help them succeed. I think it is special to note that she has said that her journey was never about the biscuits or money, but that it has always been about creating a brand that honored her passions, and that is what she is helping others do as well. I so agree that it is important in life to do what you love and to love what you do! She is helping women do just that with such real authenticity.
We, at WILD HORSE BOOTS, are certainly all about wanting people to chase their own dreams and to go forth doing the things that they are so passionate about...just as Carrie also advocates about creating something that speaks to your soul, which is authentic and special to you. Just like Carrie, we want you to have an extraordinary journey in life, and make all your dreams come true! She is an excellent example of what can happen when you follow your passions and believe in your dreams! I am just in awe of her incredible journey, with such admiration and respect for Carrie! She helps us see through hard work, dedication, and determination that we can achieve what we want in life! As we look at all of her accomplishments, she is certainly so inspiring!
