The Modern Crumb
Easton Public Market is a hub for all things delicious, and one of its newest vendors is The Modern Crumb Bakeshop. When owner Kathryn Gaffney learned that Barred and Broody would be closing their location at the market, she knew that she had to jump at the opportunity. Gaffney previously worked as a pastry chef at Bolete, and is known for her desserts, creating traditional and classic pastries using the tropical and unique flavors she loves. At The Modern Crumb, patrons can find treats as versatile as yuzu passion fruit cake, key lime brioche and huckleberry lemon danishes, and as classic as croissants and baguettes. “There’s nothing like a warm baguette straight out of the oven,” she says. Along with all the baked goods, there will be soft serve ice cream, too, featuring unique flavors that can be combined with some of the tried-and-true ones people love. As for the name of the bakery, Gaffney says, when dessert is really great, “You want to eat it till the last crumb.”
