Since July 2021, New June Bakery owner Noelle Blizzard has been running her baking business and she is now months away from opening her first storefront, writes Michaela Althouse for PhillyVoice.

Blizzard started her business as someone without much of a hankering for desserts, but selling croissants, buns, tarts, and more out of Fairmount home helped her eventually find her sweet spot in the cake industry.

“I just don’t really like cake, I don’t really like frosting, so I had to figure it out because it was a classic thing that people want to celebrate with for special occasions,” Blizzard said. “So I set off to make cakes that I would actually want to eat, filled with really flavorful fillings, and thinking about the composition a little bit differently than I felt the cakes that I’d had before or that I could frequently get my hands on in Philly. And so our style of cakes were born.” 

Currently operating out of the Culinary Collective in Bridesburg, New June will be opening a storefront in Brewerytown in November.

Once opened, the retail-to-go space will be a place to grab cakes, cookies, pies, and other pastries.

“It is something that fills me with a lot of gratitude … to bring something to my community,” Blizzard said.
