About Us

I started this bakery as a way to stay home with my baby while still doing something I love. So in 2022 I quit my 9-5 and started selling cookie platters for Christmas. What began as a few simple orders from friends quickly turned into a meaningful business — one that gives me the flexibility to care for my family while sharing fresh, handcrafted treats with my community.


Everything I bake is made to order with quality ingredients and a whole lot of love. Whether you’re celebrating something big or just want to make an ordinary day a little sweeter, I’m here to help make it special — one cookie, loaf, or cake at a time.


Living in the mountains inspires everything I do — the pace, the peace, and the intention behind each bake. There’s no storefront, no assembly line — just me, in my kitchen, doing what I love and supplying our community with delicious baked goods.

OUR WHY

Thank you for supporting this woman-owned business. Your support means more than you know.

With warmth and gratitude,

Rachel Coleman
