From Our Kitchen to Your Table—Baked With Purpose

The Prospect KC Bakery is the newest social enterprise of our Culinary Futures Program, providing hands-on workforce development in a fully operational bakery setting. Every loaf, tart, and cookie is more than just delicious — it’s part of a bigger mission to empower lives, disrupt poverty, and cultivate community.

About

At The Prospect KC Bakery, students enrolled in our 16-week Culinary Futures Program gain practical training in artisan baking, recipe development, and commercial kitchen operations. Guided by professional chefs and supported by our community partners, students learn not only the science of baking, but also the discipline, creativity, and entrepreneurial mindset needed to thrive in the culinary world.

From our farmers market pop-ups to custom catering orders, everything we bake is made with fresh, local ingredients and a whole lot of heart. Whether you're picking up pastries at a community event or serving our signature biscuits at your next brunch, you're investing in a program that turns potential into purpose.

The Prospect KC Bakery: Baked by students. Shared with pride. Rooted in justice.
