Irish Baking Classics : soda bread & old fashioned shortbread "biscuits"

Muddy's Bake Shop is an independent bakery located in Memphis, TN sharing lovin' from the oven since 2008. We make insanely delicious homestyle treats- cakes, pies, cookies, cupcakes, and more.  Our small team makes everything fresh, from scratch using traditional methods and small batches. Place a preorder, swing by our walk-in shop, or participate in a class or event.  We can't wait to see ya!We began teaching leadership & training workshops internally in 2011 and then with other groups & individuals in 2017.  It was only natural to then start sharing baking classes...  We expanded our kitchen in 2021 to include a dedicated teaching classroom where we now host in-person baking classes, leadership training classes, birthday parties, and more.  We love teaching (and learning from) our wonderful students from many walks of life!
