Frequently Asked Questions

 

  • Who's running the bakery? Chef Hannah Shortt, A.C.A. -- that's me! I've been in the bakery business since 2015, and I received my Associate's Degree in Culinary Arts back in 2017. I've held every position you can think of: baker, pastry chef, candy maker, donut baker, cake decorator and more! Sweets are my passion, and I can't wait to share my creations with you.
    ​

  • Where are you located? We are a home-based bakery right near MTSU! Everything we serve is made from scratch in our own private kitchen.

​​

  • So this is a bakery and a delivery service? That's right! As a home bakery, we don't have a public location, so you don't even need to leave the house to get scratch-made goodies! Just order from us online and we'll bring everything right to your door.

​

  • Where do you deliver? Anywhere in Murfreesboro and the general Rutherford County area! If you're a little further out, just call or email and let us know where you are. We don't mind a little travel!

​​

  • What will your prices be like? We're dedicated to keeping our sweets super affordable, so our prices should range somewhere between $1-2.50 for individual goodies and $5 or less for bigger treats like loaves of bread. Prices aren't concrete yet, but rest assured: we're working diligently to keep those numbers low for you! Everybody should be able to afford to treat themselves.

​​

  • Are you planning to become a dessert truck business? I'm glad you asked, because that's exactly the plan! We're starting out small, but our current long-term goal is to put together a trailer and take our sweets all over the city - kind of like an ice cream or food truck. 

​

  • Can I book you for events? Absolutely! Here's just a few of the events we'll bring the truck to:

    • Birthdays

    • Weddings

    • Bat Mitzvahs

    • School functions

    • Day camps

    • Fundraisers

    • Festivals

    • Holiday events

    • Community events

    • Church services

    • Company lunch hours

    • So much more!

​​​

  • What kind of sweets do you sell? Our specialty is ready-made, shelf stable treats like cookies, brownies, cupcakes and even whole loaves of bread! Everything comes pre-packaged and ready to eat, and none of our products require refrigeration or temperature control for safety. Check out our current menu here! Please note that our menu may change at any time.

​​

  • When will you be open? We're hoping to open by September 2024, but there's always a chance we'll be ready sooner or have to delay our grand opening. We're still early in the process, but we'll keep you updated as often as possible!

​​

  • Know any good baking puns? Puns may be a piece of cake, but we can't loaf around now! Doughn't forget, we've got work to do!
