It’ been another bonkers year for powerhouse sisters Bec and Narelle at Cubbyhouse Canteen. The Sisters just celebrated their 2nd birthday with their retail venture and are now entering into their 16th year running the parkside cafe at Union Street Park in Armadale. The sisters have built an incredible community of supportive young families through the park over the journey and this support has flowed through to the retail venture. The Cubbyhouse Canteen gingerbread range is free from artificial colours and preservatives. The brand is also partnered with Kids Helpline helping to raise awareness for young people’s mental health and funds are raised with every gingerbread sale. 2025 has been BIG, with the Woolworths launch in September and Bounce Play Centres in October - BUT 2026 will be bigger with more news in January 2026.
