Hi all,
My name is Savana Perna and I am the owner and founder of Orange Blossom Bakery here in Ocala. Orange Blossom Bakery is a cottage bakery dedicated to sharing traditional family recipes that use high quality ingredients.
Back in 2021 I decided to take a huge step for my health and focus on the foods I was putting into my body. After months of research I began to realize just how harmful some of the preservatives and additives in our modern food were to our bodies. This led me to begin a more whole food focused diet. After a few years of eating like this, I realized that the things I missed most often was the sweet treats that I was used to purchasing from the store. I knew there had to be a way to enjoy these treats without all of the extra chemicals found in the ones at the grocery store. Afterall, the world hasnt always had a grocery store.
While I was growing up my grandma was an avid baker. From banana bread to blueberry muffins to chocolate chip cookies, she always had something on the counter for us. Over the years our family has developed tons of recipes that have provided us with nourishing and comforting foods when we need them most.
My goal at Orange Blossom Bakery is to be able to share those recipes with you all, while focusing on sustainable quality ingredients. I hope to be able to share some of my favorite nostalgic pastries with you all and bring back traditional baking with traditional ingredients.
