ABOUT YAHSHI BAKES
Yahshi Bakes is a modern pastry studio specializing in luxury corporate gifting and event catering. Founded by Yahshimabet Sellassie, we craft bold, high-end pastries infused with warming spices, and flavors from Ethiopia and Jamaica, using organic, locally sourced ingredients.
Yahshi’s passion for baking began at four years old, inspired by her family’s roots in the culinary industry, arts, and entrepreneurship. She honed her craft using traditional spices like korerima (Ethiopian cardamom), featured in signature creations such as chai snickerdoodle cookies, orange cardamom coffee cake, almond cardamom shortbread, and more.
At 12, she competed on the Kids Baking Championship on Food Network, gaining international recognition and sparking demand for Yahshi Bakes. From Oakland pop-ups to corporate orders with brands like PayPal and Google, her commitment to innovation and excellence continues to set Yahshi Bakes apart.
We partner with companies looking to elevate their events and gifting experiences with thoughtfully curated, beautifully crafted pastries that tell a story.
