Fiona, Hattie and Bailey cafe thing

I’m thinking of having Fiona, Hattie and Bailey run a small cafe together.
They each have different types of baked goods/drinks they specialize in, and also have different roles in running the place (not without help from their friends as well, friends I haven’t drawn/written as much as these three). Plus it would give more structure to their narrative than just them all living together and there's a hint of a love triangle.
Fiona is mainly a barista, and makes simple but well-made drinks; but if you’re an extra nice regular and don’t irritate her, she might make something special and fancy for you. She refuses to use certain ingredients in her drinks, as she has a very sensitive stomach, so she focuses her beverage-making around trying to use things other than unidentified syrup, artificial sugars, etc. Her specialty is beverages made with tea, but she’ll also make coffee and milkshake-type drinks. Fiona is also always scouting out vendors for fresh, actually natural ingredients and does so with lots of scrutiny.
Hattie, naturally, makes most of the sweet dessert-type goods. She spends a little too much time decorating each one and can tend to over-frost or over-glaze things, but plenty of patrons like it this way, and will ask for Hattie-made pastries if they want something extra sugary and cute. She often closes with Fiona while Bailey is keeping track of the inventory and earnings for the day. Hattie will often be the one to go out to a vendor to talk business with them, often accompanied by Bailey as well.
Bailey makes the bread and most of the savory goods, though she does also make some sweet pastries and cookies. These are generally neater and less loaded with sugar than Hattie’s, and patrons will ask for Bailey-made goods if they want something sweet and…normal. She also is in charge of most of the logistics of the cafe, like keeping track of their inventory, ingredients, shipments, earnings, all the stuff I probably should research more before I start actually writing this.
So…hello from the woodwork. This is something I’d love to make into a comic or at least a series of vignettes or something. I’ve been doing a lot of work on my characters behind the scenes for a while now, just not drawing much significant stuff.
