Community Brunch Event Hosted at The Coppertop Room
On Saturday, June 20th, Bakes By Kari (BBK) hosted its first Community Brunch Event at The Coppertop Room in Washington. This welcoming, open-to-the-community brunch was offered at no charge to attendees, encouraging only a small suggested donation.
The brunch was designed to re-launch Kari Liza Starks' Chicago-started business here in the Peoria Area. Homemade quiche, cinnamon rolls, and other savory breakfast items were enjoyed by all who attended.
Bakes By Kari is also known for their holiday pie tasting events. Kari, founder of BBK, and her crew of volunteers look forward to hosting more community events similar to this one in the future.
