Why we bake

“We don't just bake for your table—we bake for the moments shared around it.”

The Weekend Baker is a home-based micro bakery in Accokeek, Maryland, built around limited bakery weekends and the belief that food can make ordinary moments feel meaningful.

Each collection is intentionally small, seasonal, and made for real family life: Saturday breakfasts, slow coffee, neighbors at pickup, and a treat waiting after a long week.

Before pickup day

A few good things to know.

Where is pickup?

At checkout, choose either the Accokeek rideshare meetup from 9:30–9:45 AM or the Oxon Hill rideshare meetup from 10:15–10:30 AM. Your confirmation will include the selected location and any final pickup notes.

Are you open every weekend?

No. The Weekend Baker opens on limited bakery weekends, with the calendar published in advance so you can plan around each menu.

Do you take custom cake orders?

We don't offer custom cakes. Our focus is a thoughtfully curated pre-order menu that changes with the season.

What if I have a food allergy?

Ingredient and allergen information is provided with every product. This is a home kitchen and is not an allergen-free facility.

See you this weekend.
