One of the area’s fastest-growing cupcake specialty stores is coming to Southfield’s City Centre district. Just Baked, headquartered in Livonia, opened Wednesday, March 21, 2012 in the City Centre Plaza at 25198 Evergreen Road, just north of 10 Mile Road.
“Southfield was an easy choice,” says Just Baked’s Southfield franchise owner Andrea Marchand. “It is centrally located and provides easy access to numerous metro-area freeways, major highways and Detroit Metropolitan Airport. Southfield has an enormous corporate footprint that includes automotive, media, IT, Research & Development, the healthcare industry, and the list goes on. The businesses and residents are the exact type of customers we hope to serve for a long time.”
Marchand, a Michigan native, and her husband, Dan Crowley, are big proponents of living, working and investing in the state. They are opening the Just Baked franchise as a way to help grow Michigan’s economy. The Southfield Just Baked will be the local chain’s twelfth store in metro Detroit. It will offer more than 50 flavors of gourmet, “jumbo” cupcakes including red velvet, white chocolate raspberry, and German chocolate. The store also will sell special-order custom cakes and other baked goods.
“Just Baked is a great addition to the Southfield City Centre district,” says Southfield Mayor Brenda Lawrence. “It is a Michigan-grown business that will certainly attract residents and give non-residents another reason to visit Southfield. Our local businesses and thousands of office workers in the city will have a new option for desserts and catered events. We are pleased that Just Baked and its franchise owner selected Southfield for their newest store.”
The Southfield Just Baked store is open Monday-Wednesday and Saturday from 11:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m., Thursday-Friday from 11:00 a.m.-7:00 p.m., and Sunday, 12:00 p.m.-5:00 p.m. Marchand is offering a coupon for the first month that will allow customers who purchase three gourmet cupcakes to receive an additional free cupcake.
