I am Andreas Kotsos  the founder of Anna’s Delicacies. I have worked as a chef in many different countries, including Greece, UK, Slovakia, Austria and on river cruise ships around Europe. I have tried different cuisines/delicacies and i want to bring them to the great city of Edinburgh. 

Our Story

The story of Anna’s Delicacies began as an idea whilst I was working across Europe, experiencing the various flavours of the many countries I visited before finally settling in Edinburgh.

As I wanting to relive my experiences, I found that this was next to impossible: I was either receiving inconsistent offers or I would have to travel to different cities. Thus I realised that to find what I needed, I would need to open my own store: Anna’s Delicacies

Why Anna’s?

Anna is a Latin form of the Greek: Ἄννα and the Hebrew name Hannah meaning "favour" or "grace" or "beautiful". It’s also a Hindu name and it’s meaning is "food" and "grace". Therefore, when speaking of Anna’s Delicacies, you could easily be referring to “favoured food” or something considered Delicious. 

What are we offering?

We will offer specialities such as gateaux, individual chilled cakes, syrupy pastries, Greek style pies and ice cream alongside with coffee aiming to bring the quality and variety with an affordable price to Edinburgh.

What are we asking for?

 Due to the current financial crisis, inflation, increased supplier costs, and reduced footfall as people wait out the storm we can no longer do it alone, it's time to pivot again. 

Unfortunately for us, because we are not a Charity or Social Enterprise, we do not qualify for any government funding.

We are looking for your help to stay open as we need to create a safe working capitaland. 

If we reach our target and have the opportunity to extend our target we plan to invest in purchase of some equipment.

We want to become a well known patisserie/bakery  in Edinburgh. Bringing these incredible flavours to you in the form of cakes, ice cream, baked goods and other selections remains our passion and aspiration and we humbly thank you for any support that you can give in these times.

Our Funding Goals

  • Our first goal is to reach £2,000

THANK YOU for your support and if there are any questions, please feel free to ask.
