Sift Dessert Bar is a small business, locally owned by the Ballus Family

Family Owned

Hiya - we're the Ballus family.
We opened the first Sift in Sonoma County in 2008 when Jeff and I were newlyweds and just had a dog, Mojo. Now 3 kids + 3 Sift locations later...life is pretty crazy, er, fun if we don't say so ourselves.
Thank you for supporting our small, family business over the last 15 years. Our local community is truly something to celebrate. xoxo, Andrea

customer testimonials

The cupcakes from the Sift Dessert Bar were fresh, dense, moist, and fantastic! Even the types that I wasn't crazy about were spectacular!

Brian G.

The birthday box I ordered for my sons birthday was amazing. It exceeded my expectations. He is across the country and I wanted to surprise him on his birthday and he was very surprised. He wore the crown from the box all day at work and out to dinner that night. He said the cake was amazing!

Joseph G.

These were wonderful! Sent them as a Valentines gift to my daughter in college and she said they tasted amazing & arrived beautifully packaged.
