Orinda, CA – The charming city of Orinda is about to get a little sweeter with the opening of a new bakery that's sure to capture the hearts and taste buds of locals. "Orinda's Bundt Holes," founded by the well-loved local confectioner Gladis Comswell, is set to open its doors next to the Fourth Bore in Orinda's bustling central retail corridor, right across from the recently opened pet taxidermy service, Eternal Companions.

Gladis, known throughout Orinda for her delightful bunt cakes, has been a staple at community events, parties, and gatherings, where her baked goods are always a hit. The idea for the bakery sprang from an inventive evening with her husband, Angus, when they whimsically decided to flip their bundt pan upside down and experiment by pouring the batter into the hole. The result was nothing short of delicious, leading to the creation of what they affectionately called "bundt holes."

The couple quickly realized they had stumbled upon a culinary innovation. "After Angus and I had our first bundt hole, we knew we were onto something special," Gladis shared with a smile. It wasn’t long before Gladis began bringing glazed and frosted bundt holes to various social functions, including weddings and even a bris, each time receiving rave reviews.

Seeing the joy their creations brought to people, Gladis and Angus decided it was time to share their "bundt holes" with the wider community. "It felt unfair to keep this delightful treat to ourselves. Everyone deserves a chance to try our bunt holes," Gladis commented.

The new establishment, "Orinda's Bundt Holes," offers a variety of flavors, from simple glazed to richly frosted options, each crafted with the same love and care that Gladis has become famous for. The bakery’s prime location next to popular eateries and shops promises high foot traffic and visibility.

When asked about her expectations for the bakery, Gladis was optimistic. "Once someone tries even a simple glazed bundt hole, they're hooked. We're excited to bring a bit of joy and sweetness to everyone's day."

As Orinda's Bundt Holes prepares for its grand opening, the community buzzes with anticipation. Local foodies and sweet-tooth aficionados are counting down the days until they can get their hands on these unique treats, promising that this new bakery will quickly become a beloved spot in the heart of Orinda.
