Sweet Dreams Organic Bakery: A healthy eating opportunity for everyone.

Sweet Dreams Organic Bakery provides a wonderful opportunity to eat healthy food that is chemical free and available for everyone.

Martha Sutton,  who is the Executive Pastry Chef,  is one of the most kind and outgoing Executives on the North Shore of Chicago.
Not only is she the Executive Pastry chef, she's also heads up the catering and the Public Relations division. She's an absolute delight and is an invaluable asset to the organization.

Martha got her start cooking because her Dad was a chef and started cooking when she was really young. She entered the corporate world and walked away and decided that she wanted to enter into the food world. She has worked for other restaurants and bakeries on the North Shore of Chicago and that's how she gained her experience. Her Mother and Aunt are also excellent bakers and really gave her alot of her knowledge.

Sweet Dreams is having a Meet and Greet for 20 Vegetarians the weekend of April 10th - 11th.
Martha started in June of 2006 at Sweet Dreams and the organization will turn 5 in September of 2010 (this year). Pastry is a tough industry because your standing on your feet and you’re also the last one to leave at night.   She was doing wedding cakes for other people and utilizing facilities owned by others and she missed working with an organization. She came into Sweet Dreams for lunch and was stunned as to what wonderful products that were being produced by organic scratch baking.

Sweet Dreams has been recognized in the media by North Shore Magazine, The Pioneer Press and several other organizations. They support local organization and charities as much as possible. Despite the downturn in the economy, they are financially prosperous and functioning above the curve.

Sweet Dreams is  100% organic from the food to the curtains hanging in front of the windows to the paint on the walls.  They are truly a green operation.

Organic eating utilizes products that are chemical free and come from sustainable farming. Martha only uses Organic Valley products. Their cream is the best that she has worked with and this is the best baking she’s ever done.

Sweet Dreams strengths are scratch baking and cooking that ranges from  soups, breads, sweets and this method of cooking and baking which  seperates them from other restaurants. Sweet Dreams produces beautiful sweets and Croatian cookies. They also create chocolate cheesecake, have a café and can prepare lunches. You feel good after you’ve eaten their products and creations.
Organic eating is wonderful because it prevents cancer and helps prevent any chemicals, pesticides or hormones from entering the human body.

Sweet Dreams is expanding to next door that will assist in expanding their seating capacity.  They need to accommodate their lunch crowd and have added breakfast to their menu that includes French Toast, Frittata and Scrambled Eggs.

Sweet Dreams will also start offering  cooking classes that will include different kinds of cakes and cookies.  There is also a big  market for kids baking and cooking.

Their catering services will includes kids cupcake and cake decorating.  They also offer Storybook Yoga for Kids includes engaging in yoga while being read to and tea parties for little girls.

The store front is plain and simple but please stop by and try their food. Organic eating  is not out of anyone’s bounds.

I had the pleasure of sampling the following items which were freshly baked: a lemon bar, spinach ricotta strudel,  Pear strudel, Éclair and a Cappuccino brownie. All of the items were delicately made and baked to perfection. This could be a wonderful dessert platter for your next party or event.

I also had the pleasure of having a house salad which was whole, fresh and well dressed. The dressing was not overwhelimg and there was a  hint of balsamic vinegar. The crepe was nice and light and not to sweet. The filling included fresh chicken, vegetables and the sauce was not to heavy or overseasoned. I would definitely recommend the chicken crepe and salad for another lunch visit.

Please stop by and try their wonderful creations and products. They are offering so much more than just sweets and cakes.
