Carbon Crush is finally open....

and massive thanks go out to the customers, friends and family who have supported Carbon Crush over it's first 2 days of trading... the support has been amazing and we can't wait to be your local cafe... Opening up in Brisbane has been a fantastic experience for us and we are grateful for the opportunity to share a dream and passion with the local community.

We will always try to source the best ingredients, and wherever possible source organic.. this week we have managed to get in a number of fresh organic ingredients including our milk, butter, yoghurt, feta, cheddar, beetroot, cabbage, flour, apples, oranges, tomatoes, herbs, lettuce, butternut, sourdough, spinach, sultanas, almonds, pumpkin seeds, eggs, honey

The best sellers over the last couple of days were our coffee, frappe's, smoothies, organic sourdough sandwiches.  We hope that you'll all try our vibrant salads,

Tomorrow :

  •  we're opening with two fruit salads, organic Barambagh yoghurt and homemade granola
  •  serving roasted butternut, lentil salad and a cous-cous salad for lunch
  •  baking beetroot and cocoa muffins, spinach & cheese muffins & banana bread

Carbon Crush starts to take shape...




A lot of hard work has gone in to preparing the reclaimed timber we have acquired, in to a usable point of sale unit and other furnishing.  Our second hand equipment has arrived too so most of the large puzzle pieces are in.  We've enlisted even the youngest members of our family to assist....


We're still working hard to get the shop open and hope to be up and running by the end of this month.  Carbon Crush is taking shape, but we're still baking... and the inside is still a little under-cooked.

See you all very soon!!

We all have a dream......

It has been a dream we have all long had, to run our own family business together, whilst serving the community.
A chance to share our own homemade favorites.
We feel extremely privileged to have the opportunity to give our dreams a go...

A special thanks to our friends and family for all their support and advice so far; their tireless enthusiasm and interest in what we're doing has been the driving inspiration to get this off the ground.
