Baker- New Angel Food Location at the MSP International Airport!! - Full-time / Part-time

Our Exciting Work Environment

  

Description

Donut worry...be happy! Angel Food Bakery, an award-winning downtown Minneapolis gem with fabulous donuts, pastries, cookies, cupcakes and other treats, opened a sparkling new location at MSP Airport in mid-October 2016, and this position has competitive benefits such as MEDICAL, DENTAL, VISION, and even 401K!

 

We are a small collective of passionate bakers with a penchant for perfection...even the Food Network and Martha Stewart Living have noticed we bake completely from scratch with top quality ingredients, and we even took the top $10,000 prize at the Cooking Channel's Donut Showdown competition.

 

Our ideal match would be someone that is stoked on baking, but rather than being in a dingy back room hidden from the world, prefers to work in a lively "open kitchen" environment with awesome customers and happy, drama-free colleagues. This is a full time, year round position growth opportunities for an entry-level or seasoned baker.
