Cake From Lucie 🍰💕

Now available in store and at kestrelshop.com!

Lucie Franc de Ferriere is the owner and head baker at From Lucie, a small bakery in the East Village known for its whimsical baked goods adorned with fresh flowers. Born and raised in Southern France, Lucie grew up baking cakes with her mother at the family’s farm and bed-and-breakfast in their 165-year-old chateau, and after moving to New York City, she became homesick and turned to baking for a taste of home. Eventually, Lucie’s baked goods became so popular at café pop-ups that she decided to take a leap of faith and open her own bakery.

Now in Cake From Lucie, Lucie invites home bakers to join her in creating gorgeously imperfect treats in her signature style, from easy everyday recipes to more intricate showstoppers. Lucie’s creations are less sweet than American-style baked goods, allowing her subtle and unique flavor combinations to shine. Indulge in a moist Zucchini Honey Mascarpone Cake that highlights the tastes of summer, or a layered Chamomile Cake with Whipped Cream and Strawberry Sumac Jam that beautifully melds citrus and herbal notes.

We have something special to share with you!💐

In celebration of spring and Mother’s Day weekend, please join us for a flower-filled evening with Ariella Chezar, Master Floral Designer and author. Based in the Berkshires, Ariella is a recognized leader in the “farm-to-flower” movement, creating awe-inspiring arrangements that connect onlookers with the natural world. She has designed flower arrangements for The Obama White House, and her work has graced the cover of Martha Stewart Living.

Ariella is a highly sought after teacher and lecturer, and we are honored to host her for a very special Northampton Arts Night Out! Using seasonal flowers from local farms, Ariella will demonstrate her process of creating a thoughtful, unbridled composition while sharing invaluable design wisdom shaped by thirty plus years in the field.

Ticket price includes a copy of Home in Bloom and reserves a seat (space is limited!) for this special demonstration. Bring your mom, a friend, or a woman you admire, and linger for light refreshments and optional book signing. Assemble a posy to take home from a pop-up flower bar and grab a last minute gift for mom. Please note this will be held at 263 Main Street (former ODE storefront), not at Kestrel’s brick and mortar storefront, in order to comfortably accommodate guests. We hope to see you there!🌸

Friday May 8 | 6:00pm | 263 Main Street, Northampton
