Beachside Bakers 2012
Beachside Bakers was tri-founded in 2010 by Jessica Adam, Sara Adam, and Caitlin Coates in Gloucester, MA. The business started with our love for baking and experimenting in the kitchen. We began baking cupcakes for beach parties and yacht club events as a fun summer job. The following summer, we took our favorite hobby to a higher level and expanded by selling cupcakes at our local Cape Ann Farmers market. We joined a non-profit organization for teen artist entrepreneurs called T.A.G (Teen Artist Guild) in Gloucester, MA which provided us with a table to sell cupcakes at the market. Since 2010, Beachside Bakers has hired new employees, held cupcake decorating classes at the Department of Community Services in Andover, MA, and added several new baked goods to their business. The past few summers have been an incredibly rewarding experience as we have learned how to start a small business. We have had to work with many people from licensing our home for food service, making sure the product is ready for the general public, meeting deadlines, and finding high quality ingredients at an affordable price. This process has been an exciting journey, and our business received a lot of attention. The Gloucester Times frequently highlights us in the local newspaper. This past summer we catered our first party, which was also exciting. 10% of our profit is donated to Cape Ann Art Haven, 10% of our profit is donated to Cape Ann Farmer’s Market, donations are also made to Andover Department of Community Services. Please check out our designs! Place an order, plan a party, or just email us at jessica@beachsidebakers.com :)

Veterans Day ~
Hey bloggers,
We wrapped up the 2011 Farmer's Market last month. Thanks to everyone who came and supported us at Stage Fort under the T.A.G tent this summer, and especially thanks to Mat, and the brilliant artists at T.A.G. This summer we added a ton of new beach designs as well as cakepops and Great-Grandma Patrick's cinnamon cake. After the frequent buyers at the market realized what cakepops were, towards the end of the summer we were selling over 60 chocolate and vanillas per week! (A cakepop is a delectable bite sized combination of cake and frosting, molded on a stick like a lollipop, then dipped in chocolate that just about melts in your mouth on a hot August day;). G-G-Ma's cinnamon cakes were also a huge hit. We continue to bake the cakes during the winter so hmu, e-mail (beachsidebakers@gmail.com), or comment if you'd like an order. One of my friends from school remembers having them at my 5th grade birthday party and just placed an order.
I think my favorite thing about fall is the pumpkin flavored....everything (specifically Dunkin's pumpkin donut). Sara and I are going to be trying out some new pumpkin flavored cupcakes and fall-esque designs so we'll keep you updated!!
Veteran's Day is November 11th so thank your veterans and treat them to some cups of cake.
