What are the responsibilities and job description for the Baker position at Angry Donkey?
About Us
Angry Donkey is a Walker production bakery specializing in desserts — delicate tarts, cheesecake, cakes, cupcakes, chocolate cups, dessert shooters, and other bite-size confections that steal the show at weddings, events, dessert tables, and corporate gatherings. Small-format desserts are our craft, and every piece that leaves our kitchen is made to look as beautiful as it tastes. We're looking for a pastry chef who loves precision work and takes pride in turning out flawless little desserts, batch after batch.
The Role
As our baker/pastry chef, you'll produce our full range of mini desserts from the ground up — baking and preparing components, then assembling and finishing each piece with consistency and care. This is detail-driven, high-volume work for someone who finds satisfaction in getting every tart shell, chocolate cup, and shooter just right.
What You'll Do
Bake and prepare mini-dessert components: tart shells, mousses, curds, ganaches, creams, and sponges
Assemble and finish tarts, chocolate cups, dessert shooters, and other small-format desserts
Temper chocolate and produce chocolate cups and decorative elements
Pipe, layer, and garnish desserts with uniform size, portion, and appearance across large batches
Hit production targets for event orders and dessert-table quantities
Manage your daily schedule to meet pickup, delivery, and event deadlines
Maintain a clean, organized, food-safe workspace
Collaborate with the team on new mini-dessert designs and seasonal offerings
What We're Looking For
Professional baker/pastry experience; mini desserts, plated desserts, or chocolate work strongly preferred
A sharp eye for consistency and detail — every piece in a batch should match
Comfort working at volume without sacrificing quality
Skills in chocolate tempering, tart work, and mousses/fillings are a big plus
Strong time management in a deadline-driven shop
Reliable, team-oriented, and open to creative feedback
Food safety knowledge (ServSafe a plus)
Weekend availability as needed for our busy event seasons
A culinary or baking & pastry certificate/degree is a plus but not required — skill and reliability matter most.
Why Join Angry Donkey Bakery
Specialized, craft-focused work in mini and individual desserts
Creative variety — new designs, flavors, and seasonal collections
Supportive, close-knit team environment
Steady full-time hours
How to Apply
Apply through Culinary Agents with your resume. A portfolio or photos of your pastry and dessert work is strongly encouraged.
