Father’s Day: Macrina Bakery Dads Know Best

They coached our childhood sports teams, entertained us with cheesy jokes, taught us how to dance, and held our hands through life’s tough moments. Where would we be without Dad? We sat down with a couple of our team members to talk about the Father’s Day, food, and their hardest job, fatherhood.

Father's Day

What’s the best Father’s Day gift you ever received?
The best Father’s Day gift was a picture calendar of my children and family. Even though it’s expired, I still keep it with me.

How would you like to spend the day this year?
I would love to sleep in and watch three World Cup games on Father’s Day.

Even though you’re surrounded by Macrina goodies on a daily basis, is there something from this year’s lineup that you can’t resist?
My current favorite on the Father’s Day menu are the Buttermilk Chocolate Cups. They’re awesome.

Father's Day

Is there a Father’s Day gift that stands out among the bunch?
I have no favorites. I appreciate all the gifts I have received from my children and wife.

How does your family like to spend Father’s Day?
We usually go out to eat and either watch a movie or find some other activity to do. It doesn’t matter what happens on Father’s Day as long as I get to spend time with my kids and wife.

As head baker, you’ve tasted everything on the menu a hundred times over. Which Father’s Day menu item is your favorite?
Cinnamon Apple Pull-Apart. This has always been a product that I’ve loved while working here. I have a big sweet tooth!

If you’re still stumped for Father’s Day ideas, there’s one thing we know he’ll love: Food! Bring Dad by for brunch (it’s not just for Mom, you know) and treat him to something sweet.
