About the Role
We’re a warm, laid-back bakery in San Francisco known for our cozy vibes, fresh bakes, and especially our Vegan Lemon Pound Cake (locals swear by it). We believe baking should feel like home — inclusive, creative, and always full of heart. We’re looking for someone kind, curious, and ready to jump in as our next Pastry Chef. You don’t need years of experience — just a love for baking and a willingness to learn. We’ll train you on everything from our signature recipes to the way we work as a team.
What you'll do
- Help us prep, bake, and plate a variety of pastries each day
- • Learn how to make our fan favorites (yes, the pound cake!)
- • Keep the kitchen clean, stocked, and stress-free
- • Bring good energy to the team and guests alike
What we're looking for
- Basic kitchen confidence (can follow a recipe, measure ingredients, use an oven)
- • Attention to detail (especially when it comes to timing and presentation)
- • Reliable and punctual — we bake early!
- • Able to lift 30 lbs and be on your feet for most of your shift
- • Team-first attitude — kindness and communication matter here
- • Open mind and willingness to learn new techniques (vegan baking experience is a bonus, but not required)
- • Food Handler Certification (or willingness to get one within 30 days of hire)
Nice to have
- Experience with vegan or gluten-free baking
- • A creative eye for decorating and plating pastries
