Women-owned bakeries launch new pastry collab
August 16, 2024
This weekend only, you can get a taste of 4 local bakeries all in one place.

A new collab brings together women-owned bakeries — Thoughtful Baking Co., Wentworth & Fenn, The Batch Maker and Beyond Amazing Donuts — through an exclusive pastry box available at Charlotte-area farmers markets.
It’s the ultimate collection of sweet comfort foods and a simple way to support a group of local businesses. With a slew of restaurant and food stall closings this year, coupled with the challenge of a traditional summer slowdown, the collaboration aims to highlight the spirit of cooperation among these entrepreneurs and the resilience of Charlotte’s baking community. Competition aside, they’re hoping to help each other drum up business and demonstrate a show of support.
$24 Pastry Box:
Beyond Amazing Donuts | Strawberry Lemonade Donut
Wentworth & Fenn | Citrus Blueberry Scone with Cardamom Glaze
The Batchmaker | Puddle Cookie
Thoughtful Baking Co. | Blueberry Rhubarb Hand Pie
