A Girl with Nice Buns

A look inside a local Micro-bakery

When Peyton began baking in 2019, she was looking for something creative and different to her background in marketing and the digital space. She recalls that 2019 was the time when baking became a favorite activity during the COVID shelter-in-place guidance. Bread baking became a source of community for her; she was on many baking forums, sharing tips and tricks and connecting with other bakers. 

Peyton’s inspiration comes from working with her hands and purposefully disconnecting from the ever-present online world. She says, “I really like being able to get my hands on dough or just zone out and get into the mix of things.” And, of course, bringing people enjoyment from her products is unparalleled. 

In 2023, she resumed baking after taking a break for IVF, pregnancy, and childbirth. Peyton found that providing a service and handmade product to her community fulfilled her and ignited her passion. 

Beyond products like sourdough, she is branching out into French pastry-making this year with items like Pain au Chocolat and croissants. With a constant desire for growth in her craft, she is thrilled to offer more pastries and breads in the coming months. 

A Girl with Nice Buns proudly provides quality breads and pastries with ingredient transparency to the Woodstock and Canton communities. She is an official vendor for Woodstock Farm Fresh Market.
