Why a pastry shop?
It is first and foremost an educational opportunity for students. Proceeds from pastry sales support the students in the pastry/baking program at JCCC.
Bread, pastries and desserts are freshly made by students in JCCC's pastry/baking certificate program. Supervised by JCCC’s lead pastry/baking instructor, Damian Fraase, students are exposed to varied, complex and the more difficult techniques of the pastry/baking repertoire.
Only the highest quality ingredients are used to produce delicious bread, pastries and desserts. Pricing reflects our to intention to cover only costs of ingredients; labor is not calculated in the cost.
What pastries will be available?
The menu will change twice each semester to reflect the seasonality of some of our raw ingredients. Watch the JCCC Pastry Program Facebook page for the weekly menus.
Pastry items such as chocolate chip cookies, eclairs, carrot cake and similar products may be available only once during a semester. Each semester you may find a variety of:
- Yeast breads
- Quick breads
- Pies and tarts
- Whole cakes and cake slices
- Petit pastry
- Chocolates and confections
- Cookies
- Seasonal pastries
- Churned and still-frozen dessert items
