History
After finishing a culinary arts and baking program I was conflicted between baking and cooking. I did both in my personal kitchen and enjoyed creating delicious meals from start to finish. Starting a family simultaneously, my dreams of working in a kitchen and rising up the ranks from station to station ended as a pantry cook and was replaced by the heart song of being a full time mother. During this time I continued experimenting; friends with dietary preferences and needs wondered if I could make gluten free variations. Further experimentation. Inspiration. And most importantly time; the time to brainstorm, find my voice, hone my skills, develop a menu, get feedback, merge pottery with a custom bakery. Time to talk to small business owners in the Tucson community, seeking advice and gaining knowledge about what is required formally to even start a small business without committing to a brick and mortar. These were the seeds taking root into what is now Agave Pantry.
