We’re opening a bake shop!
It will be called Sweet & Simple Bake Shop, and located at 75 Hillside Road, Fairfield, Connecticut.

We’ve signed the lease. We’ve submitted the plans to the
Town of Fairfield. It’s happening.
We. Are. So. Excited.
Some of you know, we’ve been looking for a just-right-space
for months. We wanted something not too small, not too big and definitely closer
to home. Sweet & Simple launched in December, 2009 and it’s been three
wonderful – fantastic! - years of baking, learning the food business and
building a wholesale customer base.
It’s high time to hang our own little shingle. We love the new location,
the other businesses in the shopping center and the opportunity to be part of
our neighborhood.
What’s the time table for opening? We’ll open as soon as
humanly possible. Stay tuned right here on the blog. I’m going to be posting
lots of pictures and progress reports. For any of you thinking about opening
your own bakery, I hope some of the information ends up being useful.
What will we serve? Our signature American-style baked goods
and great coffee, tea and hot chocolate. We’re going to launch with a modest
menu of breakfast-y baked goods, cookies, cupcakes and layer cakes. Look for
new products and specials every month. We’ll also have a “gift” store with pretty
cake stands, note cards, cookie jars and other treasures. We’ll be taking
catering orders and continue to serve our online customers. The party favor
business has been great fun – we love parties! - and we look forward to
customers now coming to the shop to sample in person before ordering.
Thank you for your continued support. We love you. We hope
you know that!
XO,
Michelle
