Online bakeries have boomed in the past year.
As the pandemic pushed people indoors and away from their everyday outings, a crop of web-based baking businesses opened, offering everything from Thai desserts to sourdough bread for delivery.
Some of these businesses are based in homes and sell under cottage law. Others rent commercial kitchen space from places like Wingman Kitchens, which is home to
Sweet Charli Girl (sweetcharligirl.com), which makes the most amazing gluten-free cookies n cream chocolate chip cookies, and
Gentle Whisk (gentlewhiskbakery.com), whose owner, Destinee Wright, sells vegan desserts for delivery.
Algo Dulce (algodulcefoods.com), based out of the Cook s Nook kitchen in East Austin, is a new dessert company from Michael Angelo Mondragon, whose flan is sold at the Lakeline, Barton Creek and Mueller farmers markets, Royal Blue Grocery and restaurants including La Cocina de Consuelo and Veracruz All-Natural.
