Sasha Piligian

Currently overseeing pastry at Canyon Coffee in Echo Park, Sasha Piligian previously created desserts for Gjusta and Sqirl, as well as the weekend slabs pie she sold at the underground, matter of factly-named pop-up Side Pie in Altadena. During the pandemic she launched May Bakery out of her home in Glendale, offering a rotating variety of cakes with organic flavors incorporating local and seasonal produce - plum sumac and brown butter, or fig leaf with lemon verbena and peaches, to name just a few in the current lineup.
