About

Hi, I’m Desi.
I have baked since I was a teenager, but sourdough came later and took over. It started with a few failed starters and a lot of late-night reading. About two years ago it turned into The Bake-Keeper, my cottage bakery in the Fort Lauderdale area of South Florida.
I bake sourdough loaves, cookies, bagels and pastries to order, twice a week. Real starter, real time, no shortcuts. I have worked in accounting for twenty years and have been a CPA for ten of them, so every formula is weighed to the gram.
How it works
Orders are local pickup only, with no shipping. Pick a Tuesday or Friday, choose a pickup window, and I send the address once your payment is in. The letter-shaped baguettes are a favorite for parties and graduations. I also teach sourdough classes and sell starter kits for anyone who wants to bake at home.
Open pickup dates are on the home page. Choose your day, and message me before you order if you have an allergy or a question.
