Banoffee

Once I knew what to call the brand, I created an Instagram account @banoffee_bcn and started uploading photos of the little things I was making in my spare time. From time to time I received messages asking for prices, where to buy, etc. I couldn't believe it and I was so excited every time I made a design for one of you, I packaged it and took it to the post office so that it could be delivered to your homes!

And so time went by, more and more designs, more and more products, more and more messages, more and more happiness.

It is at the moment when I incorporated the product of the eyeglass hangers that Banoffee made a 360-degree change. The reason: another important person in my life encouraged me to make them and to fight for what I loved the most in the world, for what gave me so much joy, for what drove me crazy, for what stole all my time, for my brand, Banoffee. It was at that moment that I decided to make the brand something more serious.

And soon our star product arrived.

So many of you write to us saying, I hadn't found a "cute" computer case until I discovered you. And that's exactly what happened to me. I wanted a cute computer case for my everyday life and I couldn't find one anywhere, so I thought it could be a great idea. Nowadays we customize and design whatever you ask for, and we couldn't be more thrilled when you come to our shop or send us an email asking for a "different" design. We love it when you act like designers!

It was at this time when, with a lot of hard work and effort, I was gaining followers on Instagram, I had many orders, and I decided to leave my career as a lawyer and go for my dream, to have my own company.

But I was missing one last thing....

But I was missing one last thing....

Some people die for shoes, some people die for bags or sunglasses, I die for bikinis. I'm passionate about them, and my dream had always been to create a small swimwear collection. And so I did, I bought a sewing machine, thanks to youtube tutorials I learned how to use it and I sewed a bikini and two swimming costumes. You can imagine that they weren't the best, but that's how my interest in designing came about. I went crazy looking and searching for fabrics, shapes... It was in 2018 when we created our first swimwear collection. Basic designs that fit everyone with special fabrics.

With the website up and running, I opened a showroom in Barcelona, a small place where I could show all my products, be able to attend to you, and meet you in person. We have points of sale in other locations, where you can see a sample of our work.

Today the team has expanded and I couldn't be happier. Thanks to the people who work with me every day and have decided to make Banoffee their dream too.

And after all this, it's your turn. What would you like us to talk about in our next post? We want this blog to be the perfect space to communicate with you, to know what you want and what you need, what you would like to know or have, so, here we are.
