Tea & Coffee 07/00 - Urth Caffé: A Hollywood Success Story
„“Having the highest quality desserts in a coffee bar is an incredible vehicle for attracting people who enjoy coffee and tea,” he says. In an effort to increase its market share in the late 90s, when Los Angeles was quickly getting saturated with coffee companies like Starbucks, The Coffee Beanery, and Peets, Urth Caffé started offering gourmet food with the same philosophy of being organic, pure, and natural. The company began baking its own line of pies, cakes, and cheesecakes from scratch and kept adding different items onto its menu to see how they worked. Today, the company is selling 1,600 slices of desserts a week (that’s 160 cakes) and many of the company’s baked products, such as its tiramisu and coffee-flavored cheesecake, use Urth Caffé coffee or espresso as a key ingredient.“

They leave their home, ironically, on the very instrument that brought man so quickly across the continent, a train, in search of a new shady glade.“
