SakuSaku's owner, Yuri, is on a mission to bring more Japanese flavors and styles into the American bakery scene. Born in the city of Kobe in Japan, she has trained and worked in bakeries in Japan, Canada, and the U.S.
The name SakuSaku is a Japanese onomatopoeia for “flaky, crispy" and Flakerie is a twist on the classic French patisserie. We are bringing Japanese-French fusion baked goods, from classic European pastries with Japanese flavors to pastries that are purely Japanese in origin.
