WE'RE HIRING: RAW VEGAN DESSERT MAKER The Root Organic Cafe + Chronic Disease Reversal Centre | Duncan, BC

Are you the kind of person who loves making things beautiful, precise and just right?

The Root is looking for a Raw Vegan Dessert Maker to take ownership of our house-made dessert production.

This isn't traditional baking.

Our desserts are organic, plant-based and gluten-free, made from whole-food ingredients like nuts, seeds, dates, cacao, coconut, fruit and maple syrup. Think raw cheesecakes, chocolate avocado tarts, caramel date squares, brownies, cookies, power bites and other beautiful plant-based creations.

Because raw desserts aren't forgiving in the same way conventional baking can be, we're looking for someone who is methodical, detail-oriented and excellent at following a process. Consistency matters: the cheesecake you make today should look, taste and portion the same as the one you make next week.

You might be perfect for this role if you:

- Have an exceptional eye for detail, consistency and presentation
- Love following recipes, systems and processes precisely
- Are organized, clean and methodical in the kitchen
- Can weigh, measure, portion and document accurately
- Are comfortable working independently and unsupervised
- Take pride in leaving a workspace immaculate
- Understand—or are excited to learn—raw, vegan and gluten-free food preparation




- Can manage your own production list and make sure the dessert case stays stocked
- Are dependable and take ownership of your work

Raw-vegan dessert experience would be wonderful, but we're also interested in the right person with robust food-preparation, pastry, culinary or dessert-making skills who is excited to learn our recipes and processes.

One of the best parts?

The schedule can be flexible.

This is primarily a production role, so much of the work does not need to happen while the café is busy. Once trained, you may be able to choose production hours that work well for you—including early mornings, evenings or after the café closes.

If you're someone who actually enjoys putting on some music, getting into the zone and methodically creating beautiful food on your own, this could be a pretty great job.
