Our Story
Where childhood nostalgia meets French culinary artistry.
From Dreams to Reality
The journey to Zax Bakeshop began in a home kitchen, baking holiday cookies with his mother. Founder Zach turned that childhood spark into a dual-discipline career, earning a degree in Baking and Pastry Arts from the Culinary Institute of America and a Bachelor's in Business from Keystone College. After years of refining his craft in high-end country clubs, wedding venues, and chocolatiers, Zax Bakeshop opened its doors in 2024.
