A note on my menu: as a home (cottage food) kitchen, I bake shelf-stable goods only — breads and cookies that don't need refrigeration. No cakes, éclairs or cream pastries for now; if that changes, you'll see them here first.

A small kitchen with a big heart

Hi, I'm Lana — a home baker in St. Johns, Portland. My kitchen runs on a lively sourdough starter, a shelf of cookie cutters, and the belief that good bread should crackle when you squeeze it.

Everything is baked to order — nothing sits on a shelf waiting. I bake the way I was taught: slowly, by hand, and always a little extra for the neighbors.

  • Sourdough — fermented slowly, baked the day you pick it up
  • Cookies — hand-piped to your theme, colors and names
  • Registered cottage-food kitchen in Portland, Oregon

The short answers — anything else, just ask me in a DM.

How do I order?

Send me a DM on Instagram at @sweets.portland with what you'd like and when you need it. I'll confirm the design, quantity and price before I start baking.

How far ahead should I order?

Sourdough needs 1–2 days — it's slow-fermented and baked the day you pick it up. Custom cookie sets are best booked about a week ahead, especially for detailed designs.

Where do I pick up? Do you deliver?

Pickup is in St. Johns, Portland. Sourdough delivery is free within 3 miles, or +$5 up to 10 miles. Cookies are pickup only, so the icing arrives perfect.

Do you make cakes or cream pastries?

Not yet — as a registered cottage-food kitchen I bake shelf-stable goods only: breads and cookies that don't need refrigeration. If that changes, you'll see them here first.

Can I order cookies for a party or wedding?

Yes — that's my favorite kind of order. Tell me your theme, colors and any names or dates, and I'll pipe a set to match. Large orders get a discount, and every cookie is individually wrapped.
