Specialty Food Association

Dufour Pastry Kitchen nationally supplies artisanal hors d’oeuvres and other savories as well as ready-to-bake tart shells, all-butter puff pastry, and now, a plant-based dough from its plant in the South Bronx. In this episode, Megan Rooney, program development manager at SFA, speaks with Carla Krasner, co-founder and co-owner at Dufour Pastry Kitchens, about running a women-owned company since 1985, respecting tradition while being open to change, and transitioning from a career in music to one in food.
