"Until Gold Medal Flour/General Mills offered me this blog I had no idea what a blog was or could be. They suggested we call it either "real baking with rose" or "scratch baking with rose." With apologiies to Hop Studios endearing little duck logo the word 'scratch' immediately brought up the image of chickens in a back yard so "real" it became and went on to change my life on many levels.
The power of the blog to reach people all over the world, to dispense information and receive often immediate feedback, is staggering. It is as though little light bulbs of illumination have been popping all over the globe. bloggers are empowered to try new recipes and techniques and in turn share their findings and help others even with problems beyond baking and cooking.
At first all the work of response fell upon me and it seemed to be taking every waking hour but gradually the network of capable bakers widened and bloggers came to my aid and to the aid of other bloggers. As blog master Travis so eloquently put it: "The blog has created a community of bakers."
There has been much praise for Suzy's beautiful and workable blog and forums design. Travis keeps things running smoothly and helps immensely by inputting photos and recipe charts. My blog is indeed and thing of beauty and brings joy to many. I am blessed to have Gold Medal Flour as its sponsor and Hop Studios as it's manager."
"Susannah Gardner tells me that I was one of her very first Hop Studios clients, and maybe the longest lasting, who knows? I found Susie in 2003 and we have been working together ever since. I looked at other web designers, and Susie and Hop Studios was the only one putting out designs I liked. Clean, lots of white, whimsical, and stylish. Just what I was looking for. I also wanted to work WITH the designer and learn to do as much routine maintenance as I could, and Susie was willing. We went back and forth on the basic "look" of my site, and Susie has patiently helped me stumble along learning to add copy, pages, and *gasp* even some HTML (though maybe even she doesn't realize the HTML part).
My only complaint is that now Hop Studios has many fine clients and I have to share the glory. But the success of Susie and Hop Studios has not changed the level of service I get at all. If I need help, I can get it. And I never feel pressed to buy or do something I don't want. Yea, Hop Studios, and congrats!"
"Hop Studios has built three web sites for us and is redesigning a fourth. They are all distinctive sites that are easy for users to navigate and easy for us to update. And we couldn't ask for designers who are better listeners or more responsive to our needs."
