From daily artisan breads to show-stopping custom cakes, every item is made from scratch in our Ocean Beach kitchen with premium ingredients and genuine care.
Our flagship sourdough undergoes a 24-plus-hour slow fermentation using a starter we've maintained since 2015, resulting in a beautifully open crumb, deep tangy flavor, and a crust that crackles when you slice it. Available daily in classic, whole wheat, olive rosemary, and seasonal varieties. Each loaf is hand-scored and baked on stone for an unmatched artisan finish.
Our pastry case features hand-laminated croissants, pain au chocolat, almond cream-filled morning buns, seasonal fruit Danish, and buttery scones — all baked in small batches throughout the morning so they're always fresh. We use imported European-style butter for superior flakiness and flavor that you can taste in every layer. Perfect on their own or paired with a fresh cup of coffee.
Your wedding cake should be as unique and unforgettable as your love story. We offer complimentary design consultations where you'll sit down with Maria to discuss your vision, sample flavors, and plan every detail — from buttercream florals and fondant finishes to naked cakes adorned with fresh blooms. Every wedding cake is baked to order with premium ingredients and assembled on-site for flawless presentation.
Birthdays, anniversaries, baby showers, graduations — whatever you're celebrating, we'll create a custom cake that makes the moment even sweeter. Choose from our curated flavor combinations or work with us to design something completely original, from classic layered cakes to modern drip designs and themed creations. Every cake is baked fresh, filled and frosted by hand, and crafted to be as delicious as it is beautiful.
Beyond our daily sourdough, we bake a rotating selection of specialty breads including challah, focaccia, ciabatta, seeded multigrain, and seasonal offerings like pumpkin walnut in fall and sundried tomato basil in summer. We also feature limited-run pastries and treats inspired by seasonal ingredients and local harvests. Follow us on social media or stop by to see what's special this week.
For wedding cakes, we recommend booking at least 6 to 8 weeks in advance to secure your preferred date and allow time for your design consultation and tasting. For birthday and celebration cakes, we ask for at least one week's notice, though we'll always do our best to accommodate shorter timelines when possible. During peak wedding season (May through October), we encourage booking even earlier.
We offer select items that are vegan or dairy-free, and we're always happy to discuss your specific dietary needs during a custom cake consultation. Please note that our kitchen does handle wheat, dairy, eggs, nuts, and soy, so we cannot guarantee a completely allergen-free environment. We take cross-contamination seriously and clean thoroughly between batches, but we want to be transparent for guests with severe allergies.
We begin pulling bread and pastries from the ovens early in the morning, and our full selection is typically available by opening time. Popular items like our classic sourdough and almond croissants often sell out before noon, especially on weekends. For the widest selection, we recommend arriving within the first couple of hours after we open.
Absolutely — we encourage pre-orders, especially if you're planning for an event or want to guarantee your favorites are set aside. You can call us or email to place a pre-order at least 24 hours in advance. Pre-orders are available for pickup during regular business hours and we'll have everything boxed and ready for you when you arrive.
