Well, that was a season. 😅
Apparently, the only fitting way to close out our first season at Colonial Park Bakery is with a Jersey Shore nor’easter. After the year we’ve had, we can’t say we’re surprised.
To our front-of-house crew: thank you for welcoming every customer, learning a new space, and finding your rhythm through the growing pains. Your warmth is what made this place feel like a bakery from day one.
To everyone behind the scenes and overnight: thank you for the early mornings, late nights, and work most people never see. You kept both locations moving through a season of constant change, and we know how much that took.
To the builders and every person who helped us open the doors: thank you for the long days, the last-minute fixes, and the many times you stepped in when we needed another hand. LCS Construction, Shore Style Construction, Barten Bros, Taylor K, Brian Mills, and everyone who lent us their time, tools, or talent—we’re so grateful you helped turn this idea into a real place.
To Hatteras Printing: thank you for listening to what we imagined and bringing our vision to life. The details you created helped make our new bakery feel like ours, and that means so much to us.
And to the Seaside Park community: thank you for welcoming us so warmly. You showed up, gave us a chance, shared kind words, and made us feel at home. Our first season is officially in the books, and we couldn’t have asked for a better community to spend it with.
It was busy, messy, wonderful, and occasionally a little windy. We’re grateful for every person who was part of it. See you next season! 🤍
