claude and his croissant THE STORY BEHIND LA CREPERIE

ARTICLE AND PHOTOGRAPHY TYLER WESTON
WHEN YOU HAVE KIDS, YOU TAKE CARE OF THEM. WHEN YOU TAKE CARE OF THEM YOU ARE FREE FOR THEM
A
baker was never what Jean Claude Lucas thought he might grow up to be. “I wanted to be a soccerplayer” Claude says with a smile, “but I was not qualified!” The long road to opening Le Creperie, French restaurant and bak-
ery here in Fort Collins is telling of a man passionate for family, travel, and French cuisine. Growing up in his father’s bakery in the coastal village of Brittany, France, Claude had always been more interested in windsurfing and sports than macarons or baguettes. When he was 17, Claude’s father, who had opened his bakery after World War 2, drove him to sign up for military service. “I wanted to join the army for three year” he confessed. After waiting in line for a short time, Claude decided he was not interested in the military. “I walked to the front, I tell the guy, ‘Claude Lucas, he’s not there, he’s out.’” After escaping a military future, and surprising his father at home, he was instructed to go to sleep and be ready at 1 am the following morning to work with
–JEAN CLAUDE LUCAS
his father. “Here I am, and I’ve baked since,” Baking came easy. “I never went to school, when I learned I was just repeating what I had seen growing up.” For the next nine years Claude worked with his father in the summers, during the busy tourist season, and traveled to his heart’s content for the other six months of the year. While he was home, windsurfing and long days at the bakery filled his time until September – when the next adventure could be had. Eventually the adventuring baker would find reason to settle down. “Love was involved.” Claude met and married an American woman named Carol. She was from Buffalo. Once in Key West, he opened Croissants de France, in 1983. “We had no money,” Claude says of when they first opened. Luckily the business, and the croissants, were an immediate hit. “My English was not very good,” Claude, reminiscing on the early days and once telling a customer, “We make everything from crotch!” after her inquiry of where the dough had been purchased. Carol was quick to explain the difference between “Scratch” and “Crotch” to her newly arrived husband. Over nearly 20 years in Key West Jean Claude would build his business, lose a wife and find new love and begin a family. Fast forward now to 2000, Claude and his second wife, an educator and painter from France, named Carole. He decided it was time to sell the bakery and leave Key West with their two children, Matilda and Enzo. Key West had become a party town and Claude desired the time off to spend with his growing family. “When you have kids, you take care of them. When you take care of them you are free for them,” Claude explains his dedication as a father. So, he retired. Five years in Maui working where he saw fit, then four in CONTINUED >

Costa Rica, selling baked goods wholesale to resorts, staying near the ocean was very important. When the economy crashed in 2008/09, the Lucas family felt the sting. “We lost seventy percent of everything,” Claude explains. Costa Rica’s tourism heavy economy suffered through America’s economic crisis as well. “It was a ghost town, especially where we were,” so Claude and Carole began to explore their options. “We had a friend living in Loveland who had worked for us in Florida for three years,” he explains. “She said we should come to Fort Collins, so I booked a visit. “Because of the economic crisis people were closing business after business, I found a place on College and Mountain,” remembers Claude, hard work and know-how went a long way again. “I knew the formula, I did it before,” Claude says. Again, they were quickly successful. “Lucky us,” Claude says. Carole doesn’t care to attribute everything to luck. “Lucky, but also lots of work,” Carole explains, “eighteen hours a day, there is no secret to success.” Now ten years into business in Fort Collins, the restaurant continues to be successful. Matilda has returned after finishing her undergrad in Montreal and Enzo is stepping into the family business himself. Initially after high school Enzo also began pursuing a degree in Montreal but quickly had a change of heart. “I was feeling a lack of inspiration with what I was studying,” Enzo says of the shift, “I knew that coming back and working with my dad, that would be there.” For the past year and a half he’s been working, learning the family business with his father. Now working as a family business La Creperie is pushing their way through the struggles of the Covid-19 pandemic. Although the restaurant closed in mid March, followed by the bakery for the month of April. With everything closed for the month of April the Lucas’ focused on making improvements with the time off. They refinished tables, Carole painted a new mural on the wall and Claude made a new sugarr sculpture of the Eiffel Tower to join Notre Dame behind the bakery counter. Now there is a big yellow and red sign out front that reads, “Bakery Open,” and with full displays full of pastries, croissants and baguettes the bakery is already every bit as busy as it has ever been, regardless of the six foot tape marks on the floor.

On Air THE YEAR OF THE PODCAST
ACCORDING TOÂ EDISON RESEARCH, 24% OF AMERICANS HAVE LISTENED TO A PODCAST IN THE LAST MONTH AND THE POPULARITY OF PODCASTS CONTINUES TO RISE. To say that podcasts are having a moment would be a huge understatement. 67 million Americans age 12 and older will listen to a podcast on a monthly basis, and 15 percent of the U.S. population will tune in weekly. Podcast devotees will listen to five shows per week, and 85 percent of listeners will hear all, or at least most of, each episode.

Podcasts aren’t just for promoting a business endeavor either. Some of the most popular podcasts involve story telling, news commentary, comedy and so much more. Entrepreneurs and hobbyists of all kinds have popular podcasts and some even create a revenue stream for their host. We’re going to simplify podcast creation and hopefully spark your interest starting your own! A quality podcast will mean quality equipment. Sure, you can get started with a bare minimum setup. You can record a podcast with nothing more than your smartphone, but it’ll sound like just that—a phone call recorded on a phone. We asked local recording engineer Jason Eichel, who owns Higher Ground Studios in Fort Collins to give us a few inside tips. “Audio quality begins with the microphone. The better microphone you buy, the sharper your podcast will sound.” Advises Jason. “Your surroundings are also incredibly important when it comes to recording your podcast, in a studio environment like Higher Ground, we make sure that the reverberation is short and the “white noise” in the room is as minimal as possible”. He continues. Finding the perfect length of each episode is also an important part of planning your podcast. The science of attention spans supports this number, too. TED Talks have an 18-minute maximum because scientists believe we can’t hold our attention on a single presenter for any longer before we tune out. Even seasoned pros require some editing. Editing your podcast may, in some cases be the most important step! If you have a chatty guest, or need to pause for any reason, you’ll need some editing. You could hire an engineer to take the workload off of your hands and free up time or you can dive in and do it DIY style. If you’re not put off by the challenge of editing then here are a few option to consider for digital audio workstations or DAWs for short. Audacity is an open-source software project meaning that anyone can contribute to its development. The only extra you’ll need to download is the MP3 exporter which is not included but you’ll definitely need it! Another free

After you’ve finished recording, editing, and producing your podcast, you can upload it to hosting sites like Libsyn, Anchor, and Transistor. They’ll generate your RSS feed for you, so you can submit it to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other players. Once your podcast is launched and out in the world, promoting your podcast begins! If you can consistently deliver great content for your audience, then you’ll eventually be in a position to think about monetizing your podcast too. Just like any other business, you’ll need a digital landscape for your podcast promotion as well. They’ll generate your RSS feed for you, so you can submit it to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other players. Here’s what’s involved in getting your podcast onto Apple Podcasts. STEP 1: CREATE AN RSS FEED FOR YOUR PODCASTS. If you upload your files to a site like Libsyn, Anchor, or Transistor, the feed creation is done automatically for you. STEP 2: LOG IN TO APPLE PODCASTS CONNECT. Using your Apple ID, log in at podcastsconnect.apple.com STEP 3: ENTER YOUR FEED URL AND THEN CLICK “VALIDATE.” Apple will pull your podcast’s feed details (Title, Artwork, Description, etc.) STEP 4: CLICK SUBMIT. Apple will give you a confirmation message and has a review period typically within 24 to 48 hours, but can take as long as five days. You will receive an email letting you know if you’re approved. After that, people will be able to find your podcast in the Apple Podcasts app. Once your podcast is launched and out in the world, promoting your podcast begins! If you can consistently deliver great content for your audience, then you’ll eventually be in a position to think about monetizing your podcast too. Just like any other business, you’ll need a digital landscape for your podcast promotion as well. For promotion and sharing of your podcast, a lot will depend on the site where you upload. Places like Transistor, for instance, offer a robust set of sharing options and allow you to share directly to Twitter, Facebook, and more. We can’t wait to hear you ON AIR! 26
