Who we are & what we do

We're the bakers and owners; Liz Post & Jason Smith. We are both Akron folk, born & raised. The pandemic altered our life plans, as it did for many. We welcomed these changes with open arms, and in 2020 we moved from our Cleveland apartment into our first home in West Akron.  by starting a bakery out of our new home via a Home Bakery License. Shortly after, we were invited to be a vendor at the 2021 Medina Farmer's Market. After a very busy and successful market season, we started our search for a commercial kitchen space in order to increase our yield and productivity. In March of 2022, we became the new owners of the Richfield Gourmet Cafe. We are now working to renovate this space and turn it into our new PBP bakery space, along with a coffee shop, and light breakfast and lunch fare. We offer a variety of made-from-scratch pastries, breads, and custom made cakes. With a deep affection for French pastry and baking techniques, many of our recipes are a reflection of French cooking.

​

We currently supply our homemade granola bars and scones to Trail Mix Peninsula located 1600 Mill St W, Peninsula, OH 44264.

​

Some of our select fine dining desserts are offered on the menu of Lannings Restaurant and Steakhouse, located 826 N Cleveland Massillon Rd, Akron, OH 44333.

​

In the Summer months, you may also find us tending our booth at the Medina Farmer's Market every Saturday from 9 - 1 p.m. Stay tuned for details about the 2022 farmers market season.
