Celebrating my Papa on Fathers Day - Christies Bakery

Celebrating my Papa on Fathers Day

If you’ve been a customer of Christies Bakery for some time, you’ve likely ran into Ennio Muzzolini at one point or another. It’d be a conversation you’d have a hard time forgetting, as he has a loud and unforgettable voice (double that if you catch him singing) and an even larger personality. While he hasn’t been baking for a few years now, he’ll occasionally make a guest appearance at the bakery. He’s a man that goes by many names: Ennio, The E-Man, E-Unit, The Dude, The Guy, Pops, Dad, Bo. I call him Papa. For Mothers Day I wrote about my grandmother being one of my heroes, so it’s only fair I do the same for him. After all, there’d be no bakery without him!

The Ultimate Sourdough Stuffing - Christies Bakery

The Ultimate Sourdough Stuffing

Let’s be real for a moment. Turkey is great and all, but what we get most excited about at Thanksgiving dinner is the sides! Fluffy, buttery mashed potatoes. Crispy, seared Brussels sprouts. Creamy mac and cheese. And, of course, stuffing! It often gets overlooked, but really good stuffing can get people talking and our recipe for sourdough stuffing just might steal the show at your next family get-together.

Move Over, PB & J, We’re Heading Back to School with Style - Christies Bakery

Move Over, PB & J, We’re Heading Back to School with Style

It’s hard to beat the satisfying nostalgia of a good peanut butter and jam sandwich, but we think this sandwich hits the nostalgia vibes even harder…

Hands up if your kid's favourite subject in school is “lunch.” We’ll be the first to admit that we can relate to this. Not that there’s anything wrong with that! A delicious, nutritious lunch gives your kids something to look forward to and fuels an afternoon of learning. In fact, we think this Pizza Sub recipe using our house-made baguettes is so good that it might even motivate them to spring up out of bed and get ready to catch the bus without a fuss just so they can get to lunchtime sooner.

What Does It Take to Succeed? - Christies Bakery

What Does It Take to Succeed?

I’m freshly returned from Vancouver with renewed energy and enthusiasm. A change is as good as a holiday, but a holiday is still the best! 


My mom and I had a great time at the Bakery Showcase in stunning Vancouver. From the Women in Baking Panel, to the Baker’s Association of Canada Dinner Cruise, to visiting, dining and walking with old friends and family, it was a super fun adventure all around. Not to mention the supportive feeling of the baking community who have so much knowledge to share.

I have many learning from the event and I plan to apply them and hopefully build a better and more sustainable business.
