Owning and operating a business catering to individuals with dietary restrictions comes with a heavy responsibility to customer's health. My unique qualifications for the task include a formal culinary education at Johnson & Wales University, a 20 year-long career in the food industry, and arguably most important, my first-hand struggle with gluten intolerance and managing my own gluten and dairy-free diet.
After years of perfecting gluten-free dessert recipes (not an easy process!) and creating homemade cakes for friends and family, I founded Bosco Baking Company in 2012 as Denver's first artisan gluten-free bakery. Our first wholesale client was Common Grounds coffee house, and eventually we expanded, selling desserts and pastries to coffee shops, restaurants and catering companies. |
Craig has been cooking professionally for three decades in Denver and Breckenridge. He is excited to try his hand at something a little outside his culinary comfort zone and help Bosco expand with more savory options. When he's not busy baking and delivering pastries you'll find him backcountry skiing, hiking, camping and chilling with the dogs. |
Where does 'Bosco' come from?While studying abroad in Italy, Jessica discovered a beloved gelato flavor called 'Frutti di Bosco' (literally, fruits of the forest), made with different types of berries. 'Bosco' combines her love of the outdoors (the forest), her name (Berry) and her adoration of Italy into one.
