Lake Forest Pastry Shop: Recipe Cards

Chris Leuther has been a baker for over 40 years, working in various local bakeries, including Lake Forest Pastry Shop. Throughout his career, Leuther has collected baking recipes, or "formulas," as they're known in the trade. His collection includes a stack of tattered binders housing note cards slipped inside overlapping plastic sleeves, so yellowed they're almost opaque.

"This is the holy grail," Leuther explained. "All the recipes from Lake Forest. When they shut down, they auctioned the place off. These were in a dumpster in the back. They eventually made their way to me."
