GBD has been made possible because of my first stay in Virginia. We completed many orders through Craigslist for barter. We learned.... Cake is not exactly our specialty- at least not the decorating part (right side photo).. though Pastry School helped A LOT. That was way back in 2013. I started the dream promising that by my 35th birthday I will host a grand opening at my brick and mortar cafe/bakery.
Here we are, finally in a secure position to bring my passion to the community (and Early)! I am Elated to meet you and share my craft. Soon enough, you'll get a taste of my latest bake: Brisket Croissants- made from scratch and smoked no less than 9 hours or, Tiramisu Cookies- kicks your coffee into high gear with a sweet landing.
I just love doing this and I hope you'll either join me, help me grow, or just enjoy the experience.
I swear Pastry school helped that ->.
All the practice!
These were the OG orders from WAY back... lol I'll stick with pastries!
In between Before and Now, it's clear it takes a journey...
