About

Do you:

Pumkin Bread and Homebrew

…envision a spread of locally-sourced, organic deserts at your event, but can’t afford a high-end caterer?

…need to find a vegan, diabetic-friendly or gluten-free bread or pastry?

…dream of recreating that family recipe that your grandmother made?

…wish you hadn’t committed to baking your friend’s personalized baby shower cake, and need to call in a professional?

…need a birthday cake for your child decorated with something besides Dora or Transformers in yellow#5?

…find yourself with two months until your wedding, but can’t find a wedding cake for less than your rent?

Come to Rise Up Baking: a celebration of life, food and community!

Rise Up Baking does not have a retail location. Instead, we pass the savings of operating rent-free on to our you, and towards our mission of using locally grown, sustainable ingredients while keeping our products accessible and affordable. We are a made-to-order bakery that specializes in personalizing orders and services for every customer, client and community. We’ve catered weddings, conferences, graduation parties, family reunions, surprise birthday dinners, and built gingerbread houses with the help of many small elf-like hands.
