Milk Bar is a sweet (and occasionally savory) shop that's been quietly shaking up the dessert scene since 2008. Bon Appetit magazine called us "one of the most exciting bakeries in the country." But you can literally just call us Milk Bar. Founded by James Beard award-winning pastry chef Christina Tosi, Milk Bar is known for inventing: the Compost Cookie®, layer cakes with unfrosted sides, Cereal MilkTM Soft Serve, Milk Bar Pie the first flip phone and shoulder pads (Ok, technically those last two weren't us). Snag some standout treats and skip off to your next adventure.
