Founded in 1986, Upper Crust Baking remains one of Northern California’s premier artisanal bakeries, as well as one of its oldest. https://ucbaking.com

Locations in Davis and Winters, CA. Trudy and Mo Kalisky are native New Yorkers who came to Davis as graduate students in 1970. It didn't take long for the entrepreneurial couple to realize that there wasn't a decent loaf of bread to be had in their new rural West Coast hometown. Mo began baking French-style baguettes at home, bringing a scientific background to bear upon age-old traditions of bre

Where’s your happy place? We might have a suggestion... 🍷✨

Maybe it’s a table on the patio with good friends, a few shareable plates making their way around, and a glass of something refreshing in hand.

That’s Friday night at Upper Crust Baking. Bistro Night brings together seasonal dishes, charcuterie, flatbreads, specialty desserts, local wine and beer, classic apéritifs, and mocktails, all served in the relaxed atmosphere of our neighborhood bistro inspired patio.

We’ve even got the misters going to keep things comfortable on those warm Davis evenings, so you can settle in and stay awhile.

Good food, good drinks, good company. Happy place found 🤍

Have you tried our sweet scones yet? 👀✨

If you usually reach for a savory scone, consider switching things up. While savory scones lean into rich, salty flavors and make a great breakfast or lunch, our sweet scones bring a little more indulgence to the bakery case.

They’re buttery, tender, and just sweet enough to feel like a treat without going overboard. Pair one with a hot coffee or iced latte for breakfast, enjoy one as an afternoon pick me up, or bring a few home for later.

Savory has its place, but sometimes coffee needs something sweet next to it ☕🤍

Nouvelle Pêche Melba Entremet 🤩

Another new take on the original, which was invented in 1892 or 1893 by the French chef Auguste Escoffier at the Savoy Hotel, London, to honour the Australian soprano, Nellie Melba.

Our annual production of the Nouvelle Pêche Melba Entremet enjoys a return engagement August 1! This show-stopper regales us with 3 layers of decadent mousse; peach, raspberry, and vanilla. A shortbread base sets the stage, and the entremet houses a hidden sub-plot of intensely flavored peach jam. This diva is dressed with a satiny raspberry mirror glaze and adorned with butterfly* tuille cookie décor!

*Dame Nellie Melba claimed to have encouraged Puccini to see the play on which his opera Madame Butterfly is based. She studied the title role with him, as well as that of Tosca, however she never performed either role.

Our beloved Nouvelle Pêche Melba Entremet is here for a limited engagement; August 1 through 31, so don’t miss this sellar performance! PS her understudy, Nouvelle Pêche Melba Tarte continues her extended run through the end of August as well.
