Our Story

Where sweetness meet heat, and tradition meet vibe.

Hot Gyal Bakery began with one mission: bring the bold, comforting flavors of Jamaica to Long Island — fresh, vibrant, and full of Caribbean soul. Founded in 2025 by Nickesha Gunter, the bakery blends authentic island recipes with modern creativity to create treats that are as nostalgic as they are unforgettable.

Raised on the rich flavors of Jamaican kitchens, Nickesha turned her passion into a movement. Every rum cake, every Toto, every patty is crafted small-batch and with intention — honoring heritage while adding that signature Hot Gyal flair.

THE HEART OF OUR FLAVOR

We believe food should be an experience — warm, joyful, and full of memories. That’s why every item is made with quality ingredients, handcrafted techniques, and the vibrant spirit of Jamaica.

When you taste Hot Gyal Bakery, you’re tasting:

Authenticity – recipes inspired by family & culture

Fire – bold spices & flavors with island attitude

Love – handmade, small-batch, high-quality goodness

Vibes – a modern Caribbean twist that makes every bite fun

MORE THAN A BAKERY — A VIBE

Hot Gyal Bakery is a celebration of community, culture, and Caribbean woman strength. We infuse joy into every treat and warmth into every delivery, sharing the flavors we grew up on with the people we love.

OUR PROMISE

Always fresh. Always flavorful. Always full of island spirit.

✨ Taste di sweet. Feel di heat. ✨
