Über diesen Titel

In this episode of Business In Focus, Amanda sits down with Sonia Haumonte, founder of Vaniyé Patisserie, a boutique French pastry business that’s operated in Parnell since 2012 and recently expanded into Onehunga.

Sonia shares her incredible journey from a childhood in a family-run restaurant in Chiang Mai Thailand to training in France as a pastry chef, and ultimately building an award-winning patisserie in Aotearoa.

Sonia touches on the challenges of adapting to different communities, staying true to artisanal values in a trend-driven food culture, and why she believes great pastries are about passion.

You’ll also hear how Vaniyé’s new Onehunga location was a full-circle moment, the importance of leading by example in the kitchen, and why Sonia insists on closing Sundays despite the financial cost. Her insights into leadership, burnout, and building a values-driven business are honest, heartfelt, and inspiring.

Whether you're into French pastries, entrepreneurship, or community-minded business, this episode is a treat.
