Eyahpaise is the proprietor of Bannock Express, a two-year-old venture that, had everything gone according to plan, wouldn’t actually be the Saskatoon resident’s bread and butter today.

The catering and food delivery business that showcases the versatility of the popular indigenous quick bread was supposed to help the entrepreneurial Eyahpaise launch a social media platform for First Nations people. Sales of her bannock as vessels for tacos, burgers, sweets, or for dunking into soup were only intended to fund her online venture.
