Husband and wife team, Florian and Shannon Radke, opened their first bakery in Berkeley, California in 2010. Four years later, the couple appeared on Shark Tank, where they initially accepted a $200,000 investment for 20% of their company (the deal later fell through due to differences in how investor Robert Herjavec and the Radke’s saw the company moving forward).
The bakery will be located at 321 Ellington Drive In Downtown Crown. The location used to be home to the “Downtown Crown RPAI US Management Office.” They expect to open in early 2019.
