About Short Cake

Short Cake is a new artisan bakery in the historic Original Farmers Market featuring fresh baked sweet and savory baked goods made with top quality ingredients. Bakers Hourie Sahakian and Ramon Ramirez, formerly of La Brea Bakery and Anisette Brasserie, have worked alongside the late Amy Pressman and Short Order partner Nancy Silverton, over the past several months to create a distinct line of pastries that includes croissants, muffins, scones, cookies, bars, pies, quiches, bread pudding, and stylishly decorated cakes. The bakery is committed to using local, organic and artisanally produced ingredients, including Straus Dairy butter, milk, cream, and yogurt, North Country Bacon, Anson Mills cornmeal, SQIRL preserves and Tcho Chocolate.

Cakes such as Chocolate Cardamom Cream, Chiffon with Orange Curd and Meringue, and Apple Cider Spice are designed in a short format as the name Short Cake implies. Sweet Pies will also be made in individual sizes.

The bakery will also offer savory items for lunch and dinner including Quiche with Bacon, Leek and Comte Cheese or Swiss Chard and Fennel, Bun Bread Pudding with spinach and mushrooms, bacon and cheddar croissants. A variety of tartines will be available daily such as Ham and Cheese, Turkey and Wild Mushroom.

About Nik Krankl’s Single Origin Coffee at Short Cake  

Short Cake is proud to feature award-winning barista (and Silverton’s nephew) Nik Krankl’s Single Origin coffee program whose coffee bar Taste in Boston was featured in numerous publications including The Boston Globe. Krankl’s “third wave” coffee bar at Short Cake features single origin coffees and pour-over coffee brewed to order.
