Shakkar: Where Culinary Traditions Unite with a Modern Twist

Hi! I'm Maham Qureshi, proud co-founder of Shak∙kar, alongside my incredible husband, Ali. Our journey began in 2021, driven by a fresh concept that quickly gained momentum. In just 7 months, we transformed from a humble home bakery into a flourishing enterprise with our very own pop-up store. Today, we take immense joy in delivering delectable croissants to three esteemed cafes across Houston.

At Shak∙kar Bakery, I combined my passion for croissants and laminated pastries, infused with the essence of my cultural heritage and language. It is an authentic expression of my identity, reflecting the journey I embark upon, embracing diverse culinary traditions while staying true to my roots.
