I did the financing of that company when the woman who started Tates sold it to a private equity firm.

That PE firm sold it 4 years later for 5 times what they paid for it (and she had held a decent chunk that she got more money for). She was very cool. She started the business as a small bakery in the Hamptons. In the sale contract it provided that she could go into the bakery and bake whenever she wanted.
