A Sweet Boutique for Bespoke Cakes Is Coming to Kearny Mesa | Eater San Diego

"A new bakery currently under construction in Kearny Mesa will bring custom cakes and carefully crafted desserts and pastries to the neighborhood; 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. The storefront, located near Mitsuwa Marketplace in the Hawthorne Crossings complex, is scheduled to open at the beginning of October and will be takeout-focused. In addition to Chrisell Nguyen’s signature large-scale cakes, the bakery will specialize in smaller desserts and pastries including cookies, cheesecakes, and danishes, and the menu will feature sweets that reflect Nguyen’s Filipino heritage — from turon to ube leche flan and bibinka cupcakes — as well as items inspired by co-owner Evelyn Ozburn’s Okinawan upbringing; they also plan to offer Japanese teas and lattes featuring Asian flavors and hope to open multiple bakery locations." - Candice Woo
