More than a bakery — it's a feeling

Tess' Tickles was born from a simple belief: the best food comes from real ingredients, real patience, and real care. Nestled on Yorkshire Court in Lafayette, we've been serving our neighbors with freshly baked breads, flaky pastries, and a curated selection of grocery essentials.

Every croissant is folded by hand. Every loaf is fermented slowly. Every item on our shelves is chosen because we'd serve it to our own family. That's the Tess' Tickles promise.

Our Story

Baked with purpose, served with heart

Tess' Tickles started as a passion project — baking for neighbors, friends, and anyone who needed a little sweetness on an ordinary day. What began in a home kitchen quickly grew into something special: a gathering place where the smell of fresh bread greets you at the door.

Today, we're proud to call Lafayette home. Every recipe carries forward the same care and attention that made those first batches so beloved. We source locally whenever we can, bake in small batches every day, and treat every customer like a neighbor — because that's exactly what you are.
