Jessica Spivey opened Meryl Bakery in Stonington’s Velvet Mill in October 2024. Prior to Meryl Bakery, Jessica was the Pastry Chef at Mystic’s award-winning Oyster Club and Port of Call where she earned a nomination for Best Pastry Chef by the Connecticut Restaurant Association in 2024. At Meryl Bakery, which has quickly become a Stonington sensation, Jess uses local and seasonal ingredients to produce naturally leavened products made by hand with care.

In these hands-on classes, Jess will welcome you into her kitchen and teach you to work with sourdough, bake with whole grains, and create gluten-free bakes.

Classes will meet at Meryl Bakery in the historic Stonington Velvet Mill, 22 Bayview Ave, suite 75, Stonington, CT 06378.
