Today we’d like to introduce you to Decovia Daniels.
Hi Decovia, so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
My family is full of amazing cooks. A few years ago, I started brainstorming to try and figure out how we can all get together and put our skills to good use. During my research, I came across a unique waffle that was being served by street vendors overseas. I had never seen this shape before and it was on a stick so I decided to investigate. I finally found a few websites where I could order the unique waffle iron and eventually decided that I would start my own business around this amazing waffle that most Americans had not seen! I finally created the perfect recipe and I was off and running!
I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle free, but so far would you say the journey have been a fairly smooth road?
The only major obstacle I have come across was the pandemic. It put many businesses on hold or completely destroyed them. So I am now gearing up to get things going again.
Appreciate you sharing that. What else should we know about what you do?
Coco’s Waffle Palooza brings a unique twist to the Belgian waffle. This is something very few Americans have seen before and when they taste it they are even more amazed! I pride myself on being a unique individual and now that I have a product that is unique, it makes me very proud. I am also proud of the fact that I started this business with no blueprint to follow. I had to do all of the research myself from top to bottom.
Do you have recommendations for books, apps, blogs, etc?
I am also the cohost of Cousins Conversations & Cocktails podcast. I do this show with a group of ladies (my actual cousins) every week and they definitely help me to be my best. And a shoulder to lean on whenever I am feeling overwhelmed
