Our Story
Founded in 2018 by master baker Elena Rodriguez and business partner Michael Chen, Bake Joint Venture was born from a shared passion for traditional European baking techniques and a commitment to using only the finest organic ingredients sourced from local Colorado farms.
What started as a small operation in Elena's home kitchen has grown into Denver's most beloved artisan bakery, serving over 2,000 satisfied customers monthly. Elena brings fifteen years of experience training under renowned bakers in France and Italy, while Michael's business expertise ensures we maintain the highest standards of quality and service.
Our signature sourdough starter, lovingly named "Boris," is over five years old and creates the distinctive tangy flavor that has made our bread legendary throughout Colorado. We believe that exceptional baking requires patience, premium ingredients, and genuine care – values that guide everything we do.
From our hand-shaped croissants that require 72 hours of careful preparation to our custom wedding cakes that tell your unique love story, every item leaving our ovens represents our unwavering commitment to excellence. We're not just baking bread and pastries; we're creating moments of joy that bring families and communities together around the table.
