Beachside Bakers 2012

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 :)

Georgetown Cupcakes on Newbury

Audrey and I treated ourselves to our favorite competition. We're a fan of Georgetown Cupcakes' Salted Caramel and Eggnog Frosted chocolate. I love how Georgetown Cupcakes is right down the street from BU because sometimes I go between classes :)

Baking Withdrawals !!!

Since I don't have a kitchen in my dorm room, I'm making the best of my microfridge :) These were actually pretty simple to make. It took me awhile to get used to baking and timing chocolate in the microwave but it worked. I can't wait to go home and bake Christmas cookies in the Beachside Baker kitchen and reunite with the bakers.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

I made gingerbread cupcakes for my french project on Le Petit Prince!
