Dot's Baking Pantry Bakes Up Sweet Childhood Memories | Walking up to Dot's Baking Pantry's farmers market stand, you'll often notice a crowd of people gathering to marvel at the sweet treats beautifully arranged in rows on the tables: double-fudge chocolate brownies, rich Bacardi rum cakes, giant cookies and muffins, peach cobbler, and other tried-and-true delights.
That's how Dot's Baking Pantry has brought joy to people at the Jack London Square Farmers Market for more than 20 years. And the woman who started it all, Tina McKnight, plans to continue the legacy for many more years, offering her own spin on her mother's and grandmother's traditional recipes. When you ask her why she remains so dedicated to the farmers market, she replies with a smile: "I love what I do." |
