The beloved D.C. bakery is moving toward a fully e-commerce platform.
If you’ve spent any time in Washington, D.C. over the past two decades, chances are you’ve heard of Sticky Fingers. The all-vegan bakery opened in 1999 and has been an integral part of the community there ever since. Good news for all of the folx who don’t live in D.C., because Sticky Fingers Bakery now ships nationwide!
Vegan Bakery Offering Nationwide Shipping
Sticky Fingers just launched their new online store this week, following the masses of vegan bakeries that are now offering nationwide shipping. The launch is the first step in a plan to move to a more e-commerce-focused approach to the business. But don’t worry, customers in the D.C. area can still get cupcakes, cookies, and cakes at the Columbia Heights location for now. The baked goods will also be available at their sister restaurant, Fare Well, on H Street.
The online store offers cookie subscriptions, decorating kits, and baking mixes—all of which can be shipped nationwide. Their cookie-of-the-month subscription comes with two flavors of cookies—three classic and three sandwich cookies. Flavors rotate each month. September’s flavors are pecan and cinnamon oatmeal, and October’s offerings include double chocolate and Cowvins, which is the shop’s signature vanilla cream-filled oatmeal sandwiches. Subscription boxes are $25 plus shipping. The shop is offering 10% off your first order when you sign up for their email list.
Vegan Since 1999
When Sticky Fingers opened in 1999, founder Doron Petersan didn’t advertise that it was a vegan bakery. She wanted to appeal to the masses, not just vegans. Twenty-two years later, we think it’s safe to say that she was successful! In those two decades, Petersan has won The Food Network’s Cupcake Wars twice, released a cookbook, and expanded wholesale operations into grocers in the region, making her one of the most successful vegan bakers in the country.
