Southern Roots Vegan Bakery

About the Founder

Founders Cara Pitt and her husband Marcus decided to launch Southern Roots Vegan Bakery after Marcus decided to switch to a plant-based eating lifestyle. With her love of baking, Cara then started creating vegan baked goods with her own recipes. Their mission is to craft gourmet plant-based desserts that delight every palate, making vegan indulgence both accessible and exceptional. They make delicious vegan cakes, cookies, donuts, and ice cream without compromising on taste and they also ship nationwide from their San Antonio, Texas headquarters.
