A new bakery will sweeten a mixed-use development in Grayson.
Buttery Nutt Bakery is on track to open at The Railyard this May, serving baked goods, coffee and specialty cakes in a modern atmosphere.
Owner Elizabeth Nutt is no stranger to the culinary scene, having been a pastry chef in the Atlanta area for about 12 years.
“I figured it was time to try to branch out on my own and see where things take me,” she told What Now Atlanta.
Expect an array of gourmet cookies in flavors like red velvet and berry oatmeal, dessert bars and coffee beverages. The menu will also include breakfast pastries like muffins, cinnamon rolls and stuffed croissants. In addition to some staple flavors and items, Nutt hopes to feature a variety of rotating flavors.
But the focal point will be specialty cakes, which she has specialized in for most of her culinary career.
The space will be undergoing construction over the next six to seven weeks ahead of its anticipated May opening. The bakery will have a clean, modern aesthetic with blonde wood finishes.
“I wanted everything to be fresh and white so the dessert itself can stand out more,” she said.
Nutt, who has two young sons, was drawn to The Railyard for the bakery due to its family-friendly environment and plethora of dining and entertainment options.
“When we went to the area, everything was family-oriented, with the outdoor scenic area,” she said. “I loved the idea of people being able to go outside, walk around and go place to place. You have options.”
The Railyard is located in Gwinnett County, northeast of Atlanta, with several restaurants and retail businesses. Buttery Nutt Bakery joins previously revealed concepts coming soon to the development, including The Cozy Cork, a specialty wine boutique expected to open this spring, and businesses that are open now, including San Lucas Tex-Mex & Cantina and Sam’s on Main.
