Our Story

Since I was about 10 years old, I’ve been fascinated by baking. My mom was not a baker, so all my experience came through trial and error. I have always loved the challenge of making something I’ve never made before, and then perfecting it. I love reading and doing research on not just the art of baking, but also the science of baking, and I strive to get the best possible recipe for my products. I have spent some some time working at various bakeries, including Turtlebread Company in Minneapolis, Great Harvest Bread Company in Minnetonka, and the bakery at Costco Wholesale.

Over the years, my husband, Ben, and I have talked about and dreamed of opening our own bakery where I can provide for the community a place where people can find really delicious baked goods made with quality ingredients, where I can showcase all the things I can bake from scratch, and of course continue my quest to try baking new things and perfecting the good ones.
