A new venture is on the horizon for the owners of Rye, who are launching Cornflower Baked Goods, a bakery and coffee shop in Leawood's Mission Farms. This expansion comes from the need for more space to meet the growing demand for their popular bakery items, especially pies and cinnamon rolls. Originally, the plan was to create a production kitchen, but the opportunity for a storefront led to a shift in concept. Cornflower will focus on convenient “take and go” orders, offering a selection of bakery staples alongside new menu items. Expect savory breakfast options, grab-and-go sandwiches, and a curated coffee menu featuring beans from Onyx Coffee Lab. The name Cornflower reflects their theme of native plants, continuing the legacy of their previous restaurants. The Garrelts aim to open Cornflower by late February or early March, adding to the culinary landscape of Leawood.
