Almost 19 years ago, his parents, Carlos and Cristina Chavarria, named their shop in the Pilsen neighborhood after Kristoffer. Now he's preparing to graduate high school — and is doing most of the baking at Kristoffer's Cakes, located at 1735 W. 35th St. in the McKinley Park neighborhood.</p> <p><a class="button" href="https://mckinleypark.news/news/1727-e">View full feature article here</a></p> https://www.kristofferscakes.com/blog/mckinley-park-baker-and-young-entrepreneur-kristoffer-chavarria-is-fully-stepping-into-his-role-as-the-lead 2 2024-11-20 <p><img src="https://www.kristofferscakes.com/static/sitefiles/blog/ABCFeatureBlogImage.jpg" border="0" /></p><p>A McKinley Park bakery is a homecoming of sorts for a local family. After opening in Pilsen in 2003, they moved to Florida five years ago. But the family couldn't keep away. So a few months ago, they re-opened on 35th Street, now focusing primarily on cakes. One of them is called a chocoflan, and it's unlike any other in town.&nbsp;</p> <p>Cristina Chavarria named her first bakery after her newborn son, Kristoffer. That baby is now 16 years old, helping her out in the kitchen at Kristoffer's Cakes on a quiet corner in McKinley Park. Her signature creation is the same: chocoflan.</p> <p>“It's baked together, so I put cheese in my flan. I don't like wobbly flan, so I put cream cheese in there,” Chavarría said.</p> <p></p> <p><a class="button" href="https://abc7chicago.com/amp/kristoffers-cakes-chocoflan-tres-leches-mickinley-park/5127769/">View the Full Feature Here</a></p> https://www.kristofferscakes.com/blog/abc7-feature-kristoffers-cakes-in-mckinley-park-boasts-signature-creation-chocoflan 2 2024-11-20 <p><img src="https://www.kristofferscakes.com/static/sitefiles/blog/blog-img.jpg" border="0" /></p><p>September Coupon - Use promocode Seconds to gift and enjoy the best tres leches cake in Chicago.
