The Charlottesville 29

Here is your chance to experience Paradox Pastry like you never have before, while helping to feed the area’s hungry: The Charlottesville 29 Artisan Auctions. As one of the artisans of Prime 109’s August 20 Celebration of Charlottesville Restaurants, Paradox Pastry has created a once-in-a-lifetime experience for whoever pledges the highest donation to The Blue Ridge Area Food Bank. Thanks to the generosity of Paradox Pastry, the entire winning bid goes directly to the food bank. And, thanks to the efficiency of the food bank, each dollar donated creates four meals for the area’s hungry.

The Paradox Pastry signature experience for The Charlottesville 29 Artisan Auctions:

Beer, Bakin’ and Bourbon for Bros (or Babes, as the case may be!)

Paradox Pastry’s team includes some of the most skilled bakers in town, and the auction winner and five guests will enjoy a hands-on, deep in it, class, where the team will teach them to bake all things manly and manful (or dame-ly and dameful). Take the class yourself, or send your favorite men and women to explore their inner pastry chef while they create plenty of take-home delectables laced with beer, bacon, and a wee bit of bourbon, just for fun. “We promise to teach them how to fish, er, bake,” says Paradox Pastry’s Jenny Peterson, “forever keeping them and their loved ones filled with sweetness.” Plus, Peterson says, the group will not leave hungry or thirsty, as they will enjoy plenty of snacks and adult beverages throughout the class.

It’s the ultimate Paradox Pastry experience: Beer, Bakin’ and Bourbon for Bros (or Babes, as the case may be!).

Note: The auction winner will schedule the experience at a mutually convenient time with Paradox Pastry.
