Cafe Carmel Recipe Exchange

In celebration of National Bake Week, Café Carmel invites you to join us for a warm, intimate Community Recipe Exchange, hosted in partnership with the Monterey Peninsula Chamber of Commerce and the Carmel Chamber of Commerce.

This early-evening gathering brings together local business leaders, community members, and neighbors to share something meaningful: a favorite baked-goods recipe and the story behind it.

Guests are encouraged to bring a recipe they love — handwritten or printed — and place it on a communal table for others to browse, discuss, and take inspiration from. Light baked bites will be served, and Café Carmel will share a signature recipe as part of the evening.

This is not a cooking class or demonstration.

It’s a gathering centered on:

• Baking traditions
• Storytelling
• Meaningful conversation
• Authentic community connection
