"A new bakery that’s currently in construction will bring custom cakes and carefully-crafted desserts and pastries to Kearny Mesa. Fueled by a Kickstarter campaign that’s almost halfway funded, Flour Atelier is the evolution of a home bakery business that began more than three years ago. Renamed Flour Atelier, the bakery is currently scheduled to open at the beginning of October. Besides Nguyen’s signature large-scale cakes, the bakery will also specialize in smaller desserts and pastries including cookies, cheesecakes, and danishes. The menu will include sweets that reflect her Filipino heritage, from turon to ube leche flan and bibinka cupcakes, as well as some inspired by the upbringing of co-owner Evelyn Ozburn. The takeout-focused bakery will also offer Japanese teas and lattes featuring Asian flavors." - Candice Woo
