The volume: roughly 8,000 bourbon brownies and 1,000 cookies every week, climbing well beyond that around Christmas, Valentine's Day, and Father's Day.

Production runs out of Fork Food Lab in South Portland, the shared commercial kitchen where we're members

What you'll own

  • Batch-to-batch consistency at sheet-pan scale
  • Packaging finished product for shipping
  • Directing our assistant bakerWe're also hiring an assistant baker
  • if you work with someone great, bring them along.
On top of production, we have new products planned for the holidays and would love your help with recipe development. That's paid project work in addition to your production hours.

What we're looking for
  • A few years of commercial, wholesale, or high-volume bakery experience
  • Comfortable scaling recipes to sheet-pan quantities
  • Organized enough to run a bake schedule without anyone looking over your shoulderTo apply, send a short note about your production experience and where you've baked commercially.
