"One thing that always strikes me about Dovetail’s goods is how beautiful they are. I spend a goodly amount of my life with my nose pressed up against bakery cases, and I’ve gotten choosing my pastries down to an art. It hardly takes me but 10 seconds to know exactly what I want. But Dovetail’s case, even sparingly stocked as it is compared to some, stopped me in my tracks. Everything looked like something I needed." -underthetablewithjen.com

I feel like a proud parent! Thanks so much again! We all love baking for you all! Can't wait to share even more new baked goods & food in the very VERY near future! See you soon!

Dovetail Bakery Open, Pastrygirl Not Open (Yet)

Dovetail Bakery opened their first brick ‘n mortar retail bakery this past Friday at the corner of NE 31st and Alberta, offering long-suffering fans a permanent place to enjoy a hot cup of Courier Coffee and some of the finest vegan pastries in town.

The light-filled little bakery has a charmingly homespun feel inside, with polished-’til-they-gleam concrete floors, lots of wood, and walls painted a lovely pale green. Affectionately mismatched furniture and plenty of fresh flowers make the simple space warm and welcoming.

Owner/baker Morgan Grundstein-Helvey was behind the counter, ringing up glistening pecan-topped Aunt Miriam’s sticky buns, gently-domed pear cardamom and blueberry and pumpkin spice muffins, flaky cranberry scones, and roly-poly swirly cinnamon buns.
