Zuckercreme is a bakery, cafe, and market in Portland, Oregon's Montavilla neighborhood, in the United States.[1]

Description

[edit | edit source]

Brooke Jackson-Glidden of Eater Portland has described Zuckercreme ("sugar cream" in German) as "a bakery, market, and cafe with themed seasonal events" such as Pumpkin Spice Fest.[2] She has also described the shop as a "market-meets-cafe-meets-bakery-meets-pop-up-space with a rotating set of contributing bakers, a retail section featuring Oregon-made home goods, and a pastry cases full of seasonal treats like sugar cream pie".[3] Carina Hernandez of Willamette Week said the shop "looks like a knickknack shop from the outside, but it's full of useful—surprisingly practical—locally made goods". She also wrote, "Zuckercreme is almost the antithesis of the homogenized road-stop eatery."[4]

The business has served baked goods, pies, apple cider, and coffee. One of the interior walls features a mural by local artist Brianna Vizcaino, depicting flowers, fruits, and vegetables. Hernandez said the artwork "looks like something a child could wonder about for hours or a cool librarian might get tattooed all over their body".[4] Products made by local vendors have included vegan nail polish, handmade crocheted nylon scrubbers, bath bombs, scented soaps, and felt pies.[4]

History

[edit | edit source]

Brittany Sigal started Zuckercreme, named after the sugar cream pie, as a pop-up market in 2021. In addition to collaborating with other local businesses, she organized the a strawberry festival called the Portland Strawberry Museum in the pop-up space Küchenhaus. The event featured strawberry desserts, fresh berries, art, and other strawberry-themed products.[2] Hernandez described the Strawberry Museum as a "hugely popular series of pop-ups".[4]

Sigal opened a brick and mortar shop on October 1, 2021.[5][6] The shop's debut event was Pumpkin Spice and Everything Nice, a community market with "fall favorites" such as pumpkin spice.[7] November was pie month and December was "cozy AF" month.[4][8] In 2022, Zuckercreme collaborated with Caffe Olli to host a Valentine's Day dinner. The event, called Smushly Love, featured "a five-course dinner of enoki bloom and mole poblano dish, mushroom terrine with sunchokes and guava chutney, a scallop aguachile with chanterelles and crispy crab, wood-fired halibut with yucca puree and king trumpets, and black velvet cake with dulce de leche ice cream and hazelnut crumble for dessert".[9] Zuckercreme also hosted an Easter egg hunt,[10] a book launch event,[11] and a Halloween party in 2022.[12]
