Sky Blue Pink Bakery and Soups I Did It Again announce, with sadness, that we will be going through a major change of business structure, effective immediately.
Bazile intends to reconfigure the workspace at 176 S Washington as a licensed commercial kitchen and teaching space. There may be bakery hours in the future, or a return to the Spring Green Farmers’ Market, to be determined.
We are in the process of moving production of SIDIA out of the old Prem / Enos Farm Kitchen, and we’re at a point of deciding whether to continue down that avenue. There’s a lot of changing macro-management of SIDIA in order that it may grow into more regional retail spaces, with financing, accounting, sales, transport, and distribution all in need of corporate overhaul.
It has, honestly, been such a wonderful endeavor to reboot a food-service idea when we were scrambling to find work for David during the pandemic. We were inspired and thrilled to become a niche provider of quality, healthy soups and pastries, debuting at the Spring Green Farmers’ Market, delivering weekly to old friends and new in the greater Madison area, and partnering with local retailers to provide our products in many local stores.
We’ve been privileged and delighted to cater on a very limited scale. We’ve not wanted to become a catering company, per se, but who can turn down the Crane Foundation events (we’re craniacs to the core!), or moderately sized events at Taliesin, or Minerva Montooth’s 100th birthday!
We’ve so enjoyed working with local producers throughout the Driftless Area to bring honestly produced, sustainable, fresh and nutritious ingredients, seasoning them with fine imported oils, organic herbs, and the right amount of loving attention, and serving them with a smile.
We thank our landlords and mentors, friends, neighbors, helpers, and haulers who’ve pitched in to help us warm the neighborhood with wafts of baking breads and frittatas.
And especially everyone who showed up to help us out last spring and summer, when David was recovering from his illness. Jay Anderson took the helm so many Saturdays, and all kinds of good people donned aprons and carried us through battle.
