Hi, friends! The last four-plus years with you all has been an amazing journey! From offering gluten-free treats for friends and neighbors, to renting a small vending table in Cedar Point and later Beaufort Farmer’s Market, to starting an online store, to supplying coffee shops and health food stores, and eventually, returning to an indoor counter space at Salty Air Open Market in Cedar Point—it’s been a fun and wild ride.

So many of you have been with us from those early days and are responsible for the expansion of product offerings and locations. Whether it’s strictly gluten-free or additionally grain, dairy, nut, sugar, egg, soy, corn, and/or animal product free – your requests have broadened all of my baking horizons. You all have been the driving force behind learning to create many allergen-friendly breads and treats. Your support has been unwavering, and brought the demand to a level of output I have barely been able to keep up with. Thank you for that!

After sincere thought & consideration, I’ve decided to set my sights on new goals outside of the kitchen. This is a decision I have wrestled with for awhile, because I have loved being able to provide safe bakes for you all. You have really rocked it and are responsible for creating a thriving gluten-free business with me. While I will be fulfilling orders that have already been placed/discussed, I will not be accepting any new orders after today.

There are others in our community that are offering allergen-friendly foods, some that I have been fortunate enough to work alongside at different points, and others that I have just recently connected with. You may already be familiar with them, but if not, please check them out, try them out, and support their efforts as you have mine. These are folks doing small batch from scratch, not mass production, and I know you all love that as much as I do! Once again, thank you for your enthusiastic support of Beach Town Bakery through the years. It has been a pleasure getting to know each one of you!

Such a fun night with my folks at Chef & the Farmer in Kinston. Food sourced from local farmers & served with class. We love dining here every chance we get. Food tastes so much better when it’s locally sourced in season & minimally processed. We even
hit the Boiler Room Oyster Bar up for drinks after!

This quote always reminds me of Becky Humphrey Cliff's Car Care & her Salty Air Open Market.

I can’t encourage enough, every small business owner I encounter, to connect with this market.

You will find respect & encouragement for your craft; increase your customer base beyond expectations; and cultivate both professional and personal relationships that will add to every dimension of your life.

Cedar Point is exploding with small & large businesses right now. It’s a great time to get in on that! Message the market on their page for information on becoming a vendor! ❤️❤️

Dinner & a bike ride with the hubs to grab coffee. Pretty perfect night. I’m planning many more of these nights, God willing.

Keto Dinner was crispy chicken thighs, shiitake alfredo with roasted red peppers & bacon, and our favorite roasted sprouts. I’ll put the recipes in the comments below (added to them a bit to add layers of flavor, so go ahead and play with them to put your own flair on them)!
