Brooklyn Baking Barons bringing sweets to Berlin

(May 12, 2016) Berlin will get just a little bit sweeter, as the Brooklyn Baking Barons will soon open up shop on Main Street, near the visitor’s center.
The Barons, Chris Poeschl and Tony Lanuza, have enjoyed a higher profile following a recent appearance on the ABC television program “The Chew” promoting their business – and their signature whiskey cake – to great acclaim from the celebrity chefs on the show.
Both have ties to the area. Poeschl was born in Howard County, Maryland, and Lanuza spent time at his parent’s beach house in Ocean View, Delaware. The pair now owns a home there.
After outgrowing their small space in Brooklyn, they began the transition to Berlin, temporarily taking up residence at the Crack of Dawn Bakery while searching for a more permanent location. An official announcement on the new bakery is expected this week.
