Who Am I?

I’ve wanted to be a chef ever since I was a little boy. I fell in love with baking after watching my godmother bake countless, delicious treats for her friends and family. Over time, my dream evolved into owning a bakery and sharing delicious baked goods with my community. I Knead That is the first step in realizing that dream!

I Knead That is a home-based bakery on the South Side of Chicago serving people all across the city of Chicago. I love everything about baking and I especially love to spread joy through my baked goods!

Ahmad Oates, owner

“There’s something truly rewarding about crafting baked goods that have the power to bring smiles to people's faces. It's my humble yet heartfelt gesture of gratitude towards the wonderful community that surrounds me.”
