Flour Bakery + Cafe

Widely regarded as one of the very best bakeries in America, Boston’s iconic Flour Bakery + Cafe is the creation of legendary pastry chef Joanne Chang. After earning a degree in mathematics from Harvard, Chang shifted gears and spent years honing her craft at some of the country’s top restaurants before opening Flour in Boston’s South End with her husband Christopher Myers in 2000. Her array of wildly delicious sticky buns, cinnamon rolls, cookies, muffins, cakes, pies, and more quickly attracted a loyal following, and the awards and accolades soon began to roll in.

Chang was awarded the James Beard Award for Outstanding Baker in 2016, and today there are nine Flour Bakery + Cafe locations across Boston and Cambridge. She’s also the author of five cookbooks, and Flour has won countless awards and been praised by just about every major food publication. Flour was also featured on Food Network’s “Throwdown with Bobby Flay,” in which Joanne’s sticky buns won over Chef Flay’s. Those sticky buns, along with all of Flour’s most legendary baked goods, are now being delivered nationwide!
