lucky, because we have access to a whole variety of farmers markets on a daily basis,” says Cheryl Lew, owner of Montclair Baking in Oakland, CA. “A lot of times the farmers know when their food is going to taste best.” Advantages of preserving The ease of including local fruits, nuts and produce in your bakery’s torte or mousse cakes is primarily subject to your region’s seasons. Even so, most areas offer plenty of opportunities to use locally grown ingredients in cake products. Also, there are a number of advantages to planning ahead. While fresh fruit will not always be available or in abundance, preserving summer citruses and fruits makes using local ingredients possible throughout the year. Learning how to can whole and puréed fruit is a great way to broaden your variety of flavors during the winter. Also, freezing fruit is another viable option that will reduce freshness but

preserve flavor. With that in mind, layering a torte or mousse cake with a canned or frozen homemade jam can introduce a summer citrus flavor during the winter. There’s also a sincerity associated with providing homemade products. For instance, Montclair Baking cans and preserves jams in preparation for the winter. These jams and canned products are then used in many of their mousse and torte cakes. Whether fresh or canned, locally grown produce tends to have a more noticeable appeal to shoppers. “I think people love to hear the name of the farm it came from and are definitely more willing to buy because of it.” says Lisa Clark, owner of Petunia’s Pies & Pastries in Portland, OR. Bake according to the season In addition to canning and freezing summer and spring ingredients, there are a number of seasonal flavors for the winter.
