Hey👋 I’m Valery, the Owner & Baker behind “Alfa”. If you don’t know me from the Farmer’s Market already (or if you do) here’s some fun facts about myself!
I grew up in Uruguay, which is why I love Alfajores so much, but I’m also Armenian so I also grew up with a lot of Near Eastern flavors.
I didn’t always like to bake, although I did always love to eat my mom’s amazing cakes😋, and owning a type of establishment that drew people together was/is also a big dream of mine.
Ever since I can remember I’ve been obsessed with the diversity of different cultures/flavors/peoples. That’s why even though we’re a South American bakery I can’t help but throw in some menu items from around the world that particularly speak to me❤️

Have an awesome Monday🥰
