In this episode of Port City Plate Podcast, we sit down with Lacey Evans, the owner and master baker at Dropout Bakery & Company in Downtown Mobile. Lacey shares her journey from fashion school "dropout" to becoming one of the most sought-after bakers in town. We discuss her unique croissant dough king cakes, the bakery's ever-changing menu based on weekly themes, and her commitment to using quality and sustainable ingredients.
Lacey opens up about her transition from a home-based bakery to a brick-and-mortar location inside Innovation Portal and how they've managed to consistently sell out of their delicious treats. She also highlights the importance of supporting local businesses, their collaboration with other establishments, and her plans to expand in the future and even share her baking skills with aspiring bakers one day.
