Angels on the Prowl for Badass Cake & Cookie Decorators (Hopkins)

Hello from Angel Food Bakery, until recently known as Amy's Cupcake Shoppe. We’re a sunny, modern bakery in downtown Hopkins, and have been making gorgeous cakes, exquisite custom cookies, and other creative sweets for over a decade. Our growth has been amazing, so we're on the lookout for a few more cake and cookie decorators that are stoked to be a part of a business that even the Food Network and Martha Stewart Living have noticed. Yup, our founder even tried to beat Bobby Flay (no luck there, but she got her mojo back when she took the top $10,000 prize at the Cooking Channel's National Donut Showdown). Time and time again, people notice our happy, drama-free environment with awesome staffers and a lively vibe. You can choose to work full time (30-40 hrs/wk) OR part time (min 20 hrs/wk), and we can work together with you to come up with a schedule that keeps everything humming smoothly while respecting your preferred days off. We’re a progressive cake shop that thrives on pushing the limits of cake design for birthdays, anniversaries, showers and weddings. Clients from throughout the Twin Cities choose us for their special celebrations because of our commitment to scratch baking, top quality ingredients, stellar customer service, and friendly, engaging staff. As a small collective of passionate bakers with a penchant for perfection, our ideal match would be someone that already knows their way around a commercial kitchen, but rather than being stuck in a back room hidden from the world, is stoked to work in a bright, light-filled bakery with a lively "open kitchen" that allows guests to peek at us while we make signature cakes for our in-store showcases as well as marvelous cakes and meticulously decorated sugar cookies for custom orders. Our hopes and expectations are high…we're looking for food artists that are talented, driven, fast-working and looking to be a part of a winning team where everyone pitches in. We bake. We clean up after ourselves. We sweep and mop and do dishes to keep our kitchen shiny and clean. #BakeryLife #HardWorkButStillFun A full-time schedule might look like this, but alternative hours are POSSIBLE for the right candidate (including working evenings or part time): Sunday: OFF Monday: OFF Tuesday: 7am to 3pm Wednesday: 7am to 3pm Thursday: 7am to 3pm Friday: 7am to 3pm (or until the work is done) Saturday: 7am to 3pm (or until the work is done) JOB REQUIREMENTS & RESPONSIBILITIES - You are friendly and easy to work with - You are passionate about the art of making and decorating cakes, exquisite cookies, and other extraordinary sweets - You know how to work quickly and efficiently - You are able to multi-task while keeping your cool - You like to keep a clean and organized working space - You are looking for long-term employment and like the idea of working in a successful indie business - You have at least 1 year of experience working in a commercial bakery and/or decorating cakes.
