Yes! We have our standard year-round flavors of our chess bars and cupcakes. Check out our site regularly to see any new featured flavors.

 

How do I store my pastries?

For cupcakes, best enjoyed within 3-5 days stored in the refrigerator. Our frosting is dairy-based and must be refrigerated. 

For chess bars, it is best to store them in an airtight container and place them in refrigerator or leave on container at room temperature for up to 3-5 days, except for the Apple Cinnamon Chess Bars. The Apple Cinnamon Chess Bars contain apples; thus, they should be refrigerated in order to last longer.

 

If refrigerated, they are best eaten within 7 days from the date it was processed (see the label on package for details).

If you want your chess bars to last longer, you can wrap them in plastic and/or aluminum foil, then place them in a cool dry place, such as the freezer. For extra protection, you can also place your wrapped chess bars in an airtight container prior to placing them in the freezer. 

 

Do you offer corporate or event orders?

Yes! Please contact us at least 2 months in advance for large orders or events. A vendor agreement will be provided once your event is booked. This confirms your order details, delivery schedule, and compliance with your venue requirements.

 

Will your bakery comply with venue requirements for weddings or events?

Some venues require vendors to provide a copy of food license, liability insurance, and vendor agreement before allowing setup. We are happy to coordinate with you and your venue coordinator to provide these documents upon request well before your event date.
