Better-for-you bakery

ABOUT US

Who is Cara Linn?

Hey I'm Cara!  I have always adored sweets, but not always the way traditional ones made me feel.  Processed sugar and artificial ingredients can leave you miserable! That's why at my bakery, you will only get sweets made with the most natural ingredients possible, like organic cane sugar and unbleached flour. The result is a more well-rounded flavor that's not too sweet. So many of our customers tell us they taste AND feel the difference!  Thank you for being here; it's my joy and privilege to share my sweets with you. Keep scrolling below to hear more of my story:

We believe sweets made with unprocessed ingredients like organic cane sugar and unbleached organic flour, have a huge impact on your overall well-being. Unlike other bakeries, we spend more on healthier ingredients like these to make our sweets stand out from all the rest. You really can taste and feel the difference! Need Gluten Free, Vegan, or Keto options? No problem!  We have delicious items for you as well!
