Rediscovering Our Roots

At Love & Bake, every dessert tells a story. Formerly known as Mya’s Catering Company, our journey began as a tribute to our grandfather, whose initials—MCC—symbolized the foundation of our culinary passion. Inspired by our grandparents’ love for food, family, and tradition, we embarked on a mission to share that warmth with our community.

Embracing a New Identity

As our business evolved, we realized that our original name, while meaningful, didn’t fully capture the essence of what we offer. We wanted our customers to be able to not only connect with our desserts; but with our name as well. “Love & Bake” emerged as the perfect representation of our commitment to crafting desserts that evoke feelings of nostalgia, comfort, and joy. This new name encapsulates our dedication to baking with love and sharing timeless flavors that connect generations.
