North Beach is blooming (and so are we!) 🌻

We love seeing our little beach town grow into a colorful community where all are welcome.

Our mission is to enrich the town of North Beach with kindness, art, connection, and the best dang baked goods and bevvys around. 🍪☕️

And our new building is well on its way to being a creative’s happy place with the beginning of this beautiful mural by our very own Emilee Melin!

Stop by for something sweet the next time you’re in town—you deserve it.

More progress has been made with our building project!

Here is what we've got going on now:
-bakery and kitchen will stay open at our current spot (corner of bay & 7th)
-expanded gift shop at the new building (9124 Bay Ave)

Some things to look forward to:
-onine ordering is coming back!
-art center with open art hours, classes, kits and more
-cookbook library and cookbook club
-a curated mix of unique, vintage and new, books and gifts

We will be operating out of both spots over the summer and move the kitchen in the autumn. Thank you for all your support and patience as we move things around and get eveything figured out. We cannot wait to have everything in one spot and see the project finished.

I think brownies are one of my favorite smells when it come to baking. Our brownies are made with valrhona dark chocolate and they are gluten free! These are perfect for satifying a chocolate craving :)

04/29/2023

We have been getting lots of work done at the new building and its looking so good! We are still anticipating a couple/few months before we can make the move so we will increase the hours this coming week. Starting on Wednesday we will stay open till 6pm!

04/23/2023

Update!
We have made a lot of progress on the inside of the building. Most of the painting will be done by this weekend and it’s coming together nicely I am excited to have people in the space and see it come to life!
As far as our opening date, it is still unsure. The cost of the grease trap is our biggest obstacle at over 40 grand. All of our resources have been used up so far (rent/utilities at new building/ bounty construction/ hvac system). The gofundme, while we are super grateful for every gift, only brought in around a grand. Gift card sales have been a small boost in our daily sales as well. Everyone is so supportive it’s really amazing!
Right now I am still looking and waiting on the funds for the grease trap. Once that is started we can finish the rest of the inside plumbing and move the equipment over. We will probably have a little bit of down time and will have to pass inspections 🤞 and then we can open!
Some ideas and possibilities I’ve been thinking of as sort of fundraisers are:
🖤Art & Craft Activities
🖤Cookie/Cake decorating for kids
🖤Pre-Order for Bread Club, weekly bread subscription of assorted breads (this would start after we open at building)
Let me know if these ideas sound like something you would be interested in.
We will see you in the shop soon!

We’ve got lots of our yummy chicken pecan wraps waiting for you here today! As well as some ham & cheddar croissants and cranberry turkey wraps.
We are open everyday at 6am. On the Saturday and Sunday we stay open till 4.
Be sure to follow us on here for updates of our progress at our new building and for potential closures for the switch over.
Don’t forget to grab your gift cards for the bakist to help us to get everything done in the new spot.

Building update! Things are moving along little by little. We are painting, sanding, staining and cleaning. The goal is to be open by the end of May. I am planning on posting some updates of the work in the stories so keep and eye out for that.
Now to answer some of the most asked questions..
Yes, there will be seating! Inside and on the porch.
We will be starting the menu with what we serve currently and updating as we go.
We will start more breads as soon as we are open in the new space.
Thank you for everyone who has shown so much support. We are so excited for the new space and to see all of you there ❤
Some of you may have noticed that the separate FB page I had started for the building is gone. I was having technical difficulties with it and decided to stick with this page.

Sneak peak of what we can do at the new spot! This is an herb foccaia I made when I baked from home and sold at events in the area.
There has been so much going on, making a post about it all has been overwhelming for me to think about so I apologize for the silence 🙂
The current goal is to be open in our new spot by the end of May! (fingers crossed)
Right now we are hard at work preparing the new space. We are still short on funding for the grease trap and are seeking solutions for that since we cannot open without it.
Some of our wonderful customers have mentioned gift cards. Yes! let do it. Come on in and get a gift card from us 🙂 You can also use the link below to purchase an eGift card ❤

We are slowly making progress on our new building but need some help. The slower months are catching up with us. Between the two locations, our costs have been higher than our income and we are stretched pretty thin. This is where you come in!
If you have the means or know someone who does, we are looking for a financial boost to keep us going.
