Welcome to La Castellana’s Bakery! Every pastry elevates the dignity of our community. Your support helps our programs offering on the job training for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. They learn trade skills to prepare ingredients, roll different kinds of dough, and shape each unique pastry. In addition, they practice other work skills by selling baked goods to local businesses and private homes. To prepare them for a job in the community, they also work on speaking and listening skills, planning ahead, and using their time wisely.

All of our baked goods are perfect for any event or weekend snack. We sell them by the piece, by the box, in platters, and for large events.

If you’re hungry, our Cafe also serves homecooked meals just like grandma. The Cafe has the same hours as the bakery, so please come on by with family and friends to enjoy a great meal and dessert. We have two food menus, the regular menu and monthly specials.

Visit us on Facebook or Instagram to see our weekly specials and catch up with our other programs.
