One House Bakery is owned by Hannalee Pervan and her parents Catherine and Peter Pervan. Hannalee developed a love of baking with family as a young child and quickly knew that this was what she wanted to do as a career. "Owning a bakery and being a baker were the only things I have ever dreamed of," she says.

Pervan's resume is certainly impressive. After earning her pastry diploma from Le Cordon Blue, Pervan went on to work with renowned bakeries such as Bouchon Bakery in Yountville and Thomas Keller's The French Laundry. With more than a decade of experience, Pervan is excited to share her skills and original recipes with the people of Benicia.

One House Bakery is well-loved by the community and the business boasts high reviews across Google, Facebook, and Yelp. Success hasn't come easy, though. When asked about how she came to be successful, Pervan explains, "You really have to be willing to push yourself harder than you ever thought possible." She admits it took many long days and sleepless nights to get to this point, and she couldn't do it on her own. Pervan gives special credit to her parents. "I could not have done any of this without them and they truly are the reason we are successful. I also have incredible sweet and savory sous chefs and the most amazing retail and barista managers."
Pervan's love of the craft shines through every aspect of the bakery. Devoted to making delicious food from the purest ingredients, One House Bakery doesn't cut corners.
