Must Love Sugar

That’s a criteria we have no problem meeting and the name of a new bakery in Southern Pines. Brandy Pierce has been baking and decorating professionally since 2020. “I love making anything that can be pretty,” she says. Brandy is also a full time teacher— which we’d assume means crafting is in her blood. 

Brandy has previously focused on preorders for holidays or custom work, but she now has a groovy-themed brick and mortar that she plans to open on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. You’ll be able to buy cookies and pick up orders. She also plans to start cookie decorating classes in the space. 

• Saturday, June 22: Stop by during the grand opening, where there will be raffles and giveaways. Find it at 974A S Bennett St., Southern Pines, next to N2Flow. Satisfy your sweet tooth.
