ALPHARETTA, Ga. — Franchise owner Layne Alkaasamani is opening Paris Baguette in Alpharetta on Wednesday, Sept. 16, bringing an assortment of artisanal pastries, cakes, breads and handcrafted beverages to 4119 Lake Street, Suite 105.
After beginning her career as a pastry chef, Alkaasamani brought her passion for baking to Paris Baguette. A native of Brazil who attended culinary school in Switzerland, she opened her first bakery café in Kennesaw. She hopes to grow her portfolio to two or three additional cafés across Georgia.
“What really drew me to Paris Baguette was the culture and that neighborhood bakery feel,” Alkaasamani said. “I’m looking forward to bringing that to Alpharetta and giving people a place to come in, enjoy fresh pastries, breads and coffee, and spend time together. I want this café to feel like part of the community and be a place our guests enjoy coming back to.”…
