Signature Cakes and Cupcakes
Layered Vanilla Bean Cake
Our layered vanilla bean cake features French buttercream and a ribbon of local honey. Each slice stays tender thanks to a slow-bake method perfected over years of trial and error.
Chocolate Espresso Torte
Dense, dark, and balanced with roasted espresso, the chocolate espresso torte appeals to guests who prefer a bold finish without artificial bitterness.
Seasonal Fruit Parfait
When berries and stone fruits are at peak, we build parfaits with cultured yogurt and almond crumble, highlighting produce from nearby farms.
Artisan Breads and Pastries
Country Loaf
A mix of organic flours and a 14-hour cold ferment give our country loaf an open crumb and caramelized crust that keeps well through the week.
Butter Croissant
Laminated dough crafted with European-style butter yields shattering layers and a delicate sweetness that pairs beautifully with morning coffee.
Savory Scones
Herb and cheddar scones use cold butter chunks for steam pockets, resulting in a flaky top and a tender interior suited for brunch or tea service.
