This episodes extra special guest is known as the Hamptons Baker-in-Chief, the co-founder of her namesake bakery, Carissa Waechter. We chatted about how an unfortunate accident landed her out east, her early work in the culinary industry, starting a business one sourdough at a time eventually becoming Carissa’s bakery that now boasts three locations, her favorite local haunts and the bakery’s bestselling item. She shares the various pivots the business took to build a brand, while always staying rooted in her support for local farms, producers and their ingredients which are used in every recipe devoured by local patrons year round. It’s a delightful conversation about turning unexpected circumstances into an opportunity to find a passion in both work and the local community.
