Mr Yummy Buns

Where are you based and what cities are you permitted?

What separates your food truck from the rest?
We make our buns from scratch! Mix the dough on the truck, Roll the buns on the truck and bake them on the truck! Then we load them up with icings and gourmet toppings made from scratch!! If they were any fresher, you'd have to slap'em.
What did you do before you owned a food truck?
I am a professional baker and have been for many years.  I stepped away for a bit and worked sales and the insurance industry but am now back pursuing my passion, baking!
What do you like most about having a food truck?
The Joy! Making cinnamon buns from scratch in a truck when it's 27F degrees outside is crazy, crazy challenging and crazy fun! The smile on a customer's face when they see my Buns makes it all worthwhile!  We have made their world better. The joy of experiencing a Mr Yummy Bun will always be with them! Sheer Joy!
Where did the name of your food truck come from?
I made my cinnamon buns for one of my daughters Young Living retreats years ago.  They all loved my buns and from there, I became nicknamed, the one and only, Mr Yummy Buns!  My Daughter-In-Law suggested a foodtruck 5 years ago, and now, here we are!
Why did you decide to join HRFTA?
To be part of the food truck community and be able to network with others while growing our business.
Why did you decide to open a food truck/get into the food truck business?
Covid was very eye opening that to survive, you need versatility. Seeing other businesses close was heartbreaking. Knowing that several bakeries shut down, some that I helped start, made me want to look at an alternative business model.
Any other comments?
For me, baking is more than just making something to eat. It is making an experience for people. It is creating memories and brings people together.
