Matthew Kirshner is a pastry chef and the owner of Uncle Matt’s Bakery and Café located in Sandy Hook CT. He trained with master pastry chefs from around the world, at renowned establishments such as the Russian Tea Room and the Essex House Hotel in New York City, in addition to the Roger Sherman Inn and Bantam Bread Company in Connecticut.
His love for baking can be traced back to his grandmother’s cookbook, which is still lined with notes from when she would earmark recipes for Matt as a child. Getting close to those childhood memory is an adventure that drives his culinary interests to this day. We were super excited to get the opportunity to chat with Matthew live inside Uncle Matts Bakery and Cafe in Sandy Hook.
We had a wonderful conversation, and in Part 1 of this 2 Part podcast episode we covered Matts beginnings in the baking world, where he is from, the infamous places he has worked at, how he has survived during the COVID 19 pandemic and so much more! 
Stay tuned for Part 2!
