Born & raised in the Ocean State, founder Morgan Gray, fell in love with her home and everything that that tiny state has to offer. It’s no surprise that through her journey in pastry, she’s stuck to her roots and created a business here.
Working in a local bakery throughout high school, her choice to attend Johnson & Wales University was no surprise. She graduated in 2016, with degrees in Baking & Pastry Arts and Foodservice Management. At the age of 19, she was offered a Pastry Chef position in Newport, Rhode Island. She flourished there, building a pastry department from the ground up, and grew her pastry/management experience along the way. Keeping up with the restaurant scene, she started a new Pastry Chef position in Providence two years later. Providence captured her heart in a way that no other part of Rhode Island could. Cue her hardest decision, an offer for the Pastry Chef position of a new and soon to open restaurant in Boston. Small town girl packed up for a slightly bigger city. Her skills in management, along with pastry, were evident here, as she was hiring a team and creating a menu for a restaurant and cafe. She spent long days and longer nights working tirelessly at her craft.. but Providence kept calling, so she made another hard choice to come back on home and focus on a dream that she never expected to come true so soon.
Cue her less difficult choice of Whisk. And, wow, we out here.
