Home About Us News Products Consumer Contact Testimonials Love & Quiches Gourmet is among the best restaurant dessert suppliers in the US and has been selling cheesecake, quiche and brownies for over 40 years. At our 40th anniversary celebration, we had so many great industry testimonials from our partners and wanted to share those with you. Testimonials from Love & Quiches 40th Anniversary: It has been a long journey, but being able to say you have been in existence for 40 years and pleasing millions of people is a testimonial to the care and commitment everyone has. I congratulate you on your success and commend you for the wonderful jobs you all do. I met Susan after she moved out of her garage and into her factory. She was an inspiration to all the budding food entrepreneurs then and a definite role model for achieving your dream now. One of her famous lines was “act like you are one of the big guys“. She didn’t mean that novice artisanal manufacturers should be arrogant, but they should believe in their product and be prepared with answers to the questions they would inevitably be asked … rather than treat their business as “something a home cook would do”. I follow Susan’s example often when I speak to the entrepreneurs I have in my own kitchen, impressing on them the importance of a professional presentation as the path to profitability. She has been a wonderful example of how to achieve success and I will continue to hold her up as a role model. Kathrine Gregory Founder/Director- Mi Kitchen Es Su Kitchen®: A consulting firm creating kitchen incubators nationwide Founder/Consultant- The Entrepreneur Space LLC: A Food and Business Incubator located in Queens NY I had 15 restaurants in 1983; I was visiting NY, was in Zabars and saw a Love and Quiches product.

We’d like to share a handful of these experiences with you. These brief vignettes highlight the benefits of our dessert partnership philosophy. Trend Responsive Insights & Recommendations When an emerging casual dining chain first decided to add desserts to its menu, we walked them through a meticulous selection process to ensure just the right product mix for their venue and demographic. Working together, we designed a dessert menu that answered all of their needs. We assisted with in-store marketing, plating suggestions, photography, signage recommendations and more. This menu was a great success and has endured through the extensive growth of this customer to over 500 units today. A Relationship to Build On Love and Quiches Gourmet has enjoyed the honor of being the exclusive dessert supplier for more than 20 years to a leading global fast casual chain, now with 1000+ units. The custom desserts which we developed with them have provided solid dessert sales and enjoy impressive longevity. Quality at Your Price Point We’ve been manufacturing custom high-flying desserts for some of the biggest names in the airline industry for more than 30 years. We have consistently fashioned desserts in a variety of sizes from pre-portioned tortes, to mini desserts, to individually wrapped slices, meeting the critical size requirements and stringent price points of the passenger services industry, all the while maintaining the premium quality and outstanding taste that has built our reputation. Creativity: We Think Outside the (Cake) Box! We grabbed a slice of our authentic New York Cheesecake, dipped it in a “yummy” batter, then rolled it in crunchy crumbs — resulting in one of the most successful LTO’s for a major QSR Chain. Thus the birth of our CrunchyFried Cheesecake®!

About Us It was her passion for food and her intuitive sense of the marketplace that inspired Susan Axelrod to introduce quiche to a world unfamiliar with its rich textures and elegant flavors. Since setting up shop in her small family kitchen 40 years ago, the company she named Love and Quiches has become synonymous not only with quiche, but with delicious desserts of extraordinary quality.
