The Story

Hi. I’m Jass. I started a bakery.

A one-woman operation powered by caffeine and the fear of mediocrity.
“I bake because emotional stability is temporary but dessert is forever.”
How it started

I started baking as a coping mechanism and unfortunately everyone loved it.

Knead Therapy was built on butter, hyperfixation, and an unreasonable emotional attachment to quality control.

I’m not here to make delicate little desserts. I’m here to put espresso in brownies, cardamom in cookies, and emotionally destabilizing amounts of flavor into everything I touch.

This menu is chaotic, dramatic, comforting, slightly unhinged, and that feels accurate.

Knead Therapy Bakery was created during a spiral and mixed by hand like a Victorian woman processing grief.

This all started because I was stressed and had flour.

Where the flavors come from

I’m Guyanese and my husband is Puerto Rican — our kitchen is a collision of cultures and flavors.

Jaggery in a brownie, guava in a cookie, Mithai in the center — this is just what our house tastes like. Pull up a chair.

Why therapy

I chose Knead Therapy because as someone who deeply understands the value of showing up for yourself, I thought it was fitting.

I see you, I feel you, I understand you. Complex humans deserve complex carbs — because our emotions are the furthest thing from uncomplicated.

The reason any of this exists

My husband is the reason this bakery exists — his support has been unwavering from day one, and he along with our two daughters have been my most honest and enthusiastic taste testers. Look at that lineup they helped me create.
