Cocoa & Cream - Baker's Reserve

Baker’s Reserve

We believe a bakery coffee has a specific job to do. It needs to be sturdy enough to pair with a sweet pastry, but balanced enough to enjoy on its own. Built on a solid foundation of baker’s chocolate, it offers a bold body that feels familiar, while a quiet note of cherry in the finish keeps things interesting. It’s a traditional roast, treated with care.

Baker’s Reserve | Signature House Blend  

A thoughtful house blend by Cocoa & Cream. Features a bold body with notes of baker's chocolate and a subtle cherry finish. Roasted to pair reliably with sweets.

At Cocoa & Cream, we don't think coffee needs to be overly complicated to be excellent. It just needs to be done right.

When we developed Baker’s Reserve, we wanted to create a blend that respects the traditional roast profile many of us grew up with, but with a bit more clarity and care in the roasting process. We specifically looked for beans that naturally provide a deep, bittersweet baker’s chocolate flavor. This gives the coffee a bold, reliable body that doesn't get lost when you add cream or pair with a pastry.

However, a great cup of coffee should have a little lift at the end. If you pay attention to the finish, you’ll find a pleasant, mild sweetness and a very subtle hint of cherry. It’s not overwhelming; it’s just enough to brighten up the cup.

Tasting Notes:

• The Foundation: Baker’s Chocolate

• The Body: Bold and Full

• The Finish: A quiet touch of sweet cherry

• The Vibe: Classic, reliable, and grounded

Roast Profile: Medium-Dark. We take the roast just far enough to develop those chocolate sugars without burning away the bean's natural character.
