At Bake Blue, every recipe tells a story. What started as a mother and son in the kitchen has grown into a vision for something much bigger: a bakery where adults with disabilities can find meaningful work, belonging, and a place to shine.
The name Bake Blue carries deep meaning. Blue represents autism awareness, while the great blue heron — a symbol of patience, resilience, and wisdom — reflects the spirit behind our journey. Like the heron, Bake Blue stands for independence, strength, and the belief that everyone deserves the chance to thrive.
For families touched by autism, the path after childhood often feels uncertain and isolating. Too often, capable young adults are given jobs that don’t reflect their true abilities. Bake Blue is here to change that story. We believe in asking: What are you good at? How can you grow?
Our kitchen is just the beginning. With every homemade batch, we’re creating not only delicious baked goods but also a future filled with opportunity and community.
