Yvonne’s Southern Sweets, the 19-year-old Bayview bakery known for its sugar cookies, 7-Up cake, peach cobbler and butter pecan cookies, reopened this past Wednesday. “The only thing that was in there was sugar, flour, and butter,” said Hines, who was born and raised in Bayview Hunters Point. Hines said SF New Deal, a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping small businesses prosper in San Francisco, was instrumental in her reopening. “When my shop was shuttered in January, they reached out to me and asked what resources I needed,” said Hines of SF New Deal. For now, Yvonne’s Southern Sweets will be open on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Hines said people can reach out to her via Instagram to place catering orders.
