“The one question we kept getting over and over again was, ‘When we come to visit Charleston, where can we get your biscuits hot?’ It set me out on a mission to meet with restauranteurs in Charleston and try to figure out how to, in a food service way, provide these biscuits so they could have Callie’s Biscuits on the menu. “Most people start the other way around they have a brick-and-mortar, and then they add an on-line business,” she said. Bailey-Morey opened the first shop a couple years ago in response to on-line customers seeking the brand’s fresh-baked biscuits in area restaurants. The product was inspired by a popular menu item at Callie’s Hot Little Biscuit bake shops, a small chain of grab-and-go eateries with two locations in Charleston and one in Atlanta. The brand is introducing a new iced blueberry biscuit, featuring a sprinkling of sugar and a packet of icing. We top the biscuit with a topping that consists of salt, pepper and turbinado sugar to give it texture and sweet and salty pop.” “It has all-natural, hormone-free bacon that we roast in house and add spices and brown sugar to, then we chop it and fold it into a buttermilk biscuit dough and add freshly chopped green onion. “It took a lot of testing and a lot of eating before coming to the perfect recipe,” she said.
