Finding that perfect baked good with homemade taste and freshness without that grocery store/high end bakery price? 

The passion that drives our bakery and love of what we do just for you!

We are the home of the Moravian Sugar cake, whose recipe has been refined by Susan Bostian after months of research. She spent time during 2023 researching the original recipe from Schubert's Bakery in Nazareth, the original creators of the Nazareth Moravian Sugar Cake dating back to the early 1900's.
Once Schubert's closed, the recipe got lost, and other bakeries tried to replicate the delicious dessert.

Over the summer of 2023, several meetings took place with the original bakers in Bethlehem, PA, the Kricks who owned Krick's Bakery in Bethlehem until they sold their recipes and building in 1966. Following their baking tradition was the Groman's of Bethlehem who continued to perfect the Moravian Sugar Cake recipe for years to come!

(And interestingly enough, the Kricks and Groman's started one of the first baking schools here in PA in the 1960's).

The history of baking in the Lehigh Valley is as rich as the heritage of Nazareth and Bethlehem and learning how the bakers got started, having rail cars deliver 800 pounds of flour down a chute to the basement of the bakery would keep most state inspectors today busy! Learning about how flour has changed over the years, the chemistry involved in having the sugar cake rise for the appropriate amount of time, was rewarding and inspiring.

In September of 2023, the new version (flour has certainly changed over the years) was unveiled and we listened to the public. After many taste tests and tasting events, and meetings with former employees of the bakeries that perfected Moravian Sugar Cake, a final recipe was perfected! 

We started selling out of Broad St. Sweets (this brick and mortar location closed Christmas Eve of 2023) in the fall of 2023, and it was a great opportunity to meet the public and get feedback. 

Today, the team at Think Pink Nights continues the Moravian Sugar Cake tradition from our  PA Dept. of Agriculture-registered, inspected and insured bakery (no storefront). Lead baker, Susan Bostian, is ServSafe certified as a food manager, and maintains the strict standards in creating all baked goods!
