Steve Scott had worked at numerous restaurants, bakeries and even as a pastry chef at the University of Colorado before he decided to open his own place, Babettes, in the Source in 2013. “The bakery is all mine, I make all the decisions, I’m not making anyone else’s formulas, and there’s no compromise in quality,” he says. “Our breads are 100 percent artisan, handmade products made by me, and I’m baking breads that I truly want to make.” And that's what bread lovers truly want to eat, judging from how popular Babettes quickly became. In 2019, Babettes moved to Longmont and added a wood-fired pizza oven.
