Brookline's Party Favors Bakery Closes After 35 Years, Leaving a Legacy of Themed Cakes
Party Favors, a beloved bakery in Brookline, Massachusetts, is closing its doors after 35 years of serving the community with themed cakes for various life milestones. The bakery, known for its custom cakes for events like birthdays and celebrations, has been a staple in the community. Owners John and Mary Lynn Pergantis have decided to close the bakery due to the challenges of maintaining a dual business model as both a bakery and a party store in a post-pandemic world. Despite the closure, the owners plan to continue baking cakes, supported by a GoFundMe campaign. The bakery's closure marks the end of an era for many loyal customers and former employees who viewed the establishment as more than just a workplace.
