Hand-made Baked Goods, by US!

Did you know that we prepare ALL of the bakery items that you find in our shop? We thought you probably knew, but we weren't toally sure and wanted to ensure that you did!  Loren, Kelly, Caravaughn and myself take turns in the kitchen mixing up all the sweet treats.  This also explains why we keep the bell on the counter; if we're not busy making you a tasty drink, we're likely in the kitchen creating a tasty dessert.  So PLEASE, just 'ring our bell' if we're not behind the counter!

WE take pride in making our own baked goods because this way we get to know exactly what's in them.  There are NEVER any preservatives or ingredients that your grandmother wouldn't recognize.  If you're interested in knowing what's in a particular goody, ask!  I strongly encourage folks to know what they're putting into their system. 

And another thing.....I love feedback.  It really helps me understand what is, or in some cases, what isn't working.  If you love something let us know.  If you dislike something, we gotta know this too.  And on either account, if there's something you think we could do differently to improve, this is highly valuable information!  Please, speak your mind!

Lastly....we have slowly been creeping our way into the world of gluten-free baking.  I experiment with different recipes in my own kitchen and then actualize them at the cafe.  Gluten-free baking is a tricky trade as these alternative flours have vastly different consistancy and density than that of all purpose or whole wheat flour.  So, we continue to learn!

be here!

VERY IMPORTANT piece of info:  though our gluten-free products are created using gluten-free ingredients, our kitchen is NOT CERTIFIED gluten-free.  This means that we prepare ALL baked goods in the same kitchen.  Our gluten-free product is great for those with gluten-issues/sensitivities and/or folks on a diet, but IT IS NOT destined for those with extreme intolerance.  Again, please ask if you have any questions about any of our goodies.  We'll be happy to answer OR find the answer.

Be Well.  Take Good Care.  Drink Good Coffee.  AND, eat our delicious bakery.  :)
