From Breads to Brilliance: Meet the Lady Baker of Pembroke Pines

Baking with Purpose - and a Whole Lot of Heart

This Mother’s Day, we're highlighting Paula Marsola, the powerhouse behind Lady Baker, a bakery known for its handcrafted breads, elegant cakes, and European-style desserts.

As a mother, immigrant, and entrepreneur, Paula has turned her passion for baking into a community staple — and she's just getting started.

A Local Favorite Expanding, One Loaf at a Time

After moving to South Florida with her husband and two daughters, Paula transitioned from sommelier to baker — and eventually opened Lady Baker right here in Pembroke Pines.

Her background in fine food and wine shows up in her precision and creativity.

Think: buttery croissants, rustic sourdough, silky brigadeiros, and ornate celebration cakes — all crafted with technique and heart.

Now, she’s taking the next step: opening a small restaurant next door, where the menu will bring even more of her culinary point of view to the table.

It's a natural extension of the warmth and artistry that already define her brand.

Whether you stop in for a box of pastries or a fresh loaf to share with family, Lady Baker is a local gem that’s both personal and professional — a perfect spotlight for Mother's Day weekend.

Mike’s Take

Lady Baker isn’t just a bakery — it’s the kind of place that reminds you why local matters.

Paula’s breads and pastries are top-tier, but it’s the warmth of the place (and the fact that she’s expanding right next door) that makes it a standout.

Paula’s story is a reminder that food made with love always rises.

If you haven’t been to Lady Baker yet — go.

And keep an eye on the space next door.
