New to the Bellingham area but not to baking, Sarah Woods has been making waves in the Bellingham dessert scene since opening her own business earlier this year. Her company, Gathered Confections, brings a refreshing approach to sweets, emphasizing locally sourced ingredients, classical preparations, and old-fashioned scratch baking methods. What’s more, she does custom recipe development to suit all sorts of food intolerances, so if your food restrictions took sweets off the menu, there’s a new option in town.

Sarah’s been working in restaurants since she was 15, “It has given me plenty of time and examples to think ‘how would I do this differently, how can I make this better?’ I’ve worked on farms to better understand how we are connected to the food we eat. My goal in starting Gathered Confections was three-fold: to create the most delicious baked goods, to use clean, high-quality ingredients, and to support our local community and local farmers.”

Gathered Confections specializes in cakes and special events, so if you’re looking to get your hands on some of these treats, a custom order is the way to go. 

“Starting small and growing organically just seemed like the only real option. I’m open to all possibilities moving forward, but I want to make sure I can give every customer the attention they deserve, and custom orders are the best way to do that.” 

With this sincere and passionate approach to food, Gathered Confections has truly set itself apart from the crowd.
