A6 News wallowa.com September 23, 2015 Sugar Time off to a sweet start ‘I don’t think I fully comprehended that it would go this far this fast’ By Kathleen Ellyn Wallowa County Chieftain Sugar Time Bakery, situ- ated at 106 W. Main Street in Enterprise, had its one-week “soft opening” last week and owner Eva Herold found her- self working 15 to 17 hours a day to keep up with orders. “I just couldn’t bake enough,” she said. “I need to bake more, I need to bake a lot more. On Friday morning (Sept. 18) we sold out in 45 minutes and I baked more and more each day to not sell out.” Herold is on the coast this week, buying more equip- ment and tables so that she’ll be ready for the Grand Open- ing on Saturday, Sept. 26. A ribbon-cutting will be held at 9 a.m. After that, the bakery hours will be 7:30 to 2:30 Tuesday through Saturday. If customers drop in the store in the morning they will ¿nd cinnamon rolls and scones freshly made and small-batch fresh ground cof- fee made by Scott McDon- ald. They can enjoy those either at the coffee bar, at a small table inside, while sit- ting on the couch, or outside at a bistro table. That sweet start is fol- lowed by a few quiches — and then the freshly baked goodies come out into the cases: cupcakes, brownies, lemon bars, cookies, cheese- cake and more. The variety will vary — there’s only so much one woman can do. Herold has been enlisting the aid of friends and hus- band Justin, so far, but if the madness of opening week continues she will be looking at adding some help. “I don’t think I fully com- prehended that it would go this far this fast,” she said. “But it’s come, and the time is here, and it’s just fantas- tic.” Herold has been baking for as long as she can remem- ber. “I got it from my mother and gran,” she said. But, despite that early ex- perience, baking the kinds of cakes and confections she wanted to bake involved a learning curve. “There’s so much free- ness to cooking; add a pinch of this or that. But in bak- ing I got frustrated because that wouldn’t work out. So I learned to really follow my recipes and learned the sci- ence behind baking.” Fast-forward to 2010 when the Herolds, Eva and husband Justine and son Ty- son, moved from Boise to Oregon and were established at the Looking Glass Fish- ery in Wallowa, where Justin worked. “I began creating my own recipes and Àavor,” Herold said. “When we moved to Enterprise in 2012 I got my kitchen certi¿ed, registered as a business, went through the NEOEDD Business De- velopment course, and tried to sell. It’s been uphill (in a T HE B OOKLOFT By Kathleen Ellyn Courtesy photo Eva Herold ices some of her favorite cupcakes during her “soft opening” week at Sugar Time Bakery. good way) ever since.” Herold had been baking desserts for Embers Brew Pub and R & R Restaurant in Joseph and seeing success before she was emboldened to go retail. “I’ve been baking out of the house and it was success- ful enough we thought we’d give it a shot at a storefront,” she said.

Local businessman Michael Berry put on his organizational hat to present for two of the events: the Wallowa Val- ley Ice Rink and Greater Enterprise Main Street’s (GEMS) Winterfest cel- ebration. He asked for $2,000 for the Ice Rink and brought commissioners up-to-date on potential and solidi¿ed plans for the rink. “We’re trying to build every year to make it bet- ter,” said Berry. The plan for this winter is to situate the rink on the high ground at Enterprise City Park and to work at installing lights on the nearby Pa- ci¿c Power poles. Berry had already approached Paci¿c Power and been assured the lighting was doable, for an estimat- ed cost of $1,200 and monthly service charges. The ice rink costs many more thousands to operate than the $2,000 that Berry was request- ing, but much of that cost is made up by sponsors, he said. Although the rink needs a new liner since a tree fell into it and tore the old one, the mon- ey requested from city council would not go for repairs, he said, but rather to develop the rink further. Berry also asked for $2,000 for Winterfest and reminded the council of the success of previ- ous events and plans to make this year even more beautiful. “Last year was amazing,” he said. “It’s a pretty festive event.” Lighting in all of the trees on River and Main streets in addition to Warde Park are planned and the gazebo on the courthouse lawn also will be decorated. The event includes a light parade, Santa visits, gift bazaar, chili feed and fudge-tast- ing and much more. Michele Young, wearing her Enterprise Landmarks Commission hat, made the ¿nal pre- sentation. She request- ed $1,500 to continue the development of the walking audio tour of historic buildings in En- terprise. “It’s a proven tour- ist attraction,” she said, “and we’d like to have better signage so build- ings are numbered in ac- cordance with the audio tour.” The Landmarks Com- mission would also like signage in town telling visitors how to use the online/telephone tour and informational signs near the two interpre- tive signs already placed at the courthouse and Warde Park. “The Commission’s two-year goal is to get this county-wide,” she said. “Enterprise is the test run.” Two other organiza- tions had sent letters of request, but missed the mandatory presentation. As the agenda had not been published online last week, they may be allowed a second chance for presentation.
