Modern Baking magazine recognized Alpha
Delights as a business to take note of even before the young business'
doors were opened! In a feature story about the business the magazine
wrote:
"Mary Pappas and her husband, Rick Martens,
were delighted by the excellent and intimate bakery cafe's they discovered
on a trip in 1993 to Greece. "I said to Rick, 'I want to open a
pastry shop!'" Pappas laughs. "I was being playful, but eventually
it grew to be a passion."
Three years ago, Pappas began to pursue
the dream. Then in April 2000, she left her job in corporate communications
and began an intense, yearlong research project that garnered her national
industry attention.
Today, at Alpha Delights Bakery and Cafe' Pappas sees her vision coming to life. The bakery is a comfortable and
colorful place, while being elegant, with a luxurious European village
style different from anything else in town."
