Vivas Bakery, a Venezuelan style pastry shop, is opening mid-September in The Shops at Willow Bend food court in Plano.

The bakery will be located at 6121 W. Park Blvd., Ste. 103. Owner Sara Vivas said she also runs Arepa Station in the mall's food court in Suite 108. Vivas has been baking for her friends for years and wanted to bring the treats to the community.

Vivas specializes in custom cakes but will also offer cupcakes, cookies, cake pops and Venezuelan desserts. She currently sells pastries from Arepa Station’s kitchen, but the bakery will allow her to have a dedicated kitchen and a storefront.
