A Fire Inside vegan bakery is back in search of backers! »
Remember vegan baker Davey and his plea for investors in his Oakland-based vegan bakery? Turns out Kickstarter wasn’t the place for him, but he continues in the pursuit of his dream!
Now you can visit the official A Fire Inside vegan bakery website and order from his menu of sugary baked goods, like bread pudding, cheesecakes, and the infamous Weekend Ruiners, hooray! You probably definitely want to do that. Currently delivery is limited to Oakland and the surrounding area “for a small fee,” or of course you can pick up your sweeties onsite.
But what, you’re asking, about the dream of the storefront and the brick oven and so forth? The fundraising quest continues, this time through ChipIn, the link for which you can find right here. If you donated before, you probably (definitely?) want to donate again—the cause is the same, the result is the same, nothing has changed except the medium. Please contact Davey with any questions; we’re sure he’s happy to answer them.
Best of luck to Davey and all his investors, many of whom really ought to be forthcoming right about now, HINT HINT. Money’s short, we know, but if you have a few spare dollars, consider an investment in a vegan bakery—you can be sure it will pay off in deliciousness later on.

» Wholesome Bakery is here!
Thanks to Bernal Heights food blog Married…with Dinner for the info, because apparently we are too lazy to walk uphill anymore. In the same little shopping area, there’s a little deli called Paulie’s Pickling that, yes, specializes in pickled items—right now they have amazing-sounding green beans, asparagus, and artichoke hearts, though we are hoping later this year for tomatoes—and El Porteno Empanadas that appears to have at least one vegan item (word is out on the empanadita de manzana).
Congratulations on the new Marketplace (331 Cortland Ave. at Wool Street), Bernal! And extra congratulations on the VEGAN FUCKING BAKERY! Now we all have more reasons to walk up the hill.

Sugar Beat Sweets, the San Francisco vegan bakery that will soon have a storefront (!!!), is selling limited edition t-shirts that are beyond awesome. They’re designed by the good folks at Herbivore Clothing so you know, pretty great. Pre-orders will start later this week, with shirts shipping by the end of November.
Now, please excuse me, while I try to get this bit of genius out of my head all day.
