Meet the Baker

Welcome to Hat Trick Treats! I'm Suzanne, a Navy veteran (still in the Reserves) and a former ice hockey goalie proudly serving customers in the San Diego area. I have a passion for baking, decorating cookies, and teaching so I decided to start a small business to do all three! My husband and I met while playing hockey and our son plays/coaches/refs, so that's how my bakery got its name. 😊 Our daughter is gluten intolerant so I have many years of experience baking gluten-free treats, providing tasty baked goods that are allergy friendly. I think you'll find that you don't miss the gluten and your diet-restricted friends will be happy they can join you for dessert! I offer beginner-friendly cookie decorating classes with the option to either attend at a public venue (see main page for upcoming events) or to host a group of your friends/colleagues in the privacy of your home. I'm also available for corporate team-building events. I’ll bring all the necessary supplies and materials; you just provide the space for your people and any drinks/snacks you may want! Thanks for stopping by! Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions and be sure to subscribe to my email list for discounts and shop updates. Thank you for supporting my small business!

Our Story

Welcome to Gemini Twins Bakery! I’m excited to share the story behind our delicious sourdough creations. Meet me, Megan, a baker with a passion for family, sourdough, and the dream of a simpler, self-sufficient life. Country Roots in City Life Though I live in the city, I’m a country girl at heart. Spending my summers in a one-room log cabin that my grandfather built for my grandmother, surrounded by open fields and fresh air, I developed a love for the land and a desire for a simpler lifestyle. My family and I brought a bit of the countryside to the city, creating a small “city” homestead where we raise rabbits and chickens. It’s our little oasis amidst the urban hustle and bustle. Family: The Heart of the Operation At the core of my life is my beautiful family. My loving wife and our three wonderful children mean the world to me. Our oldest, who’s 16, often helps with the homestead chores and baking tasks. Meanwhile, our 2-year-old Gemini twins bring joy and energy to every day. We love hiking and getting out in nature whenever we can. Together, we dream of moving to a piece of land where we can raise more animals and live completely off the land. The Sourdough Revelation My baking adventure began in 2019 when I realized there had to be a better way to nourish my family. That’s when I discovered sourdough. It started with some frustrating failures with multiple sourdough starters, but I eventually got it! This ancient and natural method of baking bread opened up a world of possibilities and sparked a newfound passion for creating wholesome, delicious foods. The Birth of Gemini Twins Bakery After years of experimenting, learning, and perfecting recipes, Gemini Twins Bakery was born. The name reflects the dual aspects of our operation: a blend of family love and culinary passion. Each recipe has been carefully crafted and has become a staple in our household, adored by every family member. Sharing Our Love of Sourdough Gemini Twins Bakery isn’t just about baking; it’s about sharing a passion. My family and I are excited to bring our love of sourdough and sweets to our community. What started as a personal journey to feed my family better has blossomed into a home bakery that spreads joy through every loaf of bread and sweet treat. A Dream in the Making While our bakery thrives in the city, the dream of moving to the countryside remains alive. The vision of a larger homestead, more animals, and a completely self-sustained lifestyle fuels my dedication to baking. It’s a dream that guides our mission and inspires every bake. Join Us on This Journey Gemini Twins Bakery is more than just a place to get delicious sourdough treats; it’s our family story, a journey of passion, and a dream in the making. We invite you to join us, taste our creations, and be a part of our community. Together, we can share in the love of sourdough, the joy of family, and the pursuit of a dream. Thank you for supporting Gemini Twins Bakery. We’re excited to share our journey and our delicious sourdough creations with you!
