Local Business Spotlight: Bar & Batter

What happens when a professionally trained pastry chef combines a love of baking, a knowledge of spirits, and Annapolis' reputation as a drinking town with a sailing problem? The result is Bar & Batter, a local cottage bakery specializing in alcohol-infused desserts that are anything but ordinary.

In this week's Local Business Spotlight, founder Rob Carraccetto shares how his training at the Culinary Institute of America and experience in restaurants, bars, and French patisseries inspired creations like bourbon, bacon, and brown butter chocolate chip cookies, as well as espresso martini-inspired treats. He also discusses turning a layoff into an opportunity, advocating for cottage food businesses in Annapolis, and his ambitious idea for a "Flight of Annapolis" featuring desserts inspired by local restaurants.

Bar and Batter was a way for me to say thank you to Annapolis for giving me a home.

From unusual flavor combinations to supporting other small businesses, Rob has some big ideas for a small-batch bakery. Learn more and order at https://barandbatter.com.
