Full Job Description

For over 50 years, the Jay's family of brands has been creating unforgettable dining experiences throughout Orange County. From Jay's Catering in Garden Grove and our two Ellie's Table cafés in San Juan Capistrano and Irvine, to our award winning venues across Orange County, we've built a reputation for exceptional food, outstanding service, and a workplace where people genuinely enjoy coming to work.

We're looking for an enthusiastic, dependable Pastry Production Assistant to join our talented pastry team. This is an incredible opportunity for someone who loves baking, wants to expand their pastry skills, and enjoys working in a fast-paced, creative environment where no two weeks look the same. One day you may be brainstorming seasonal macaron flavors for our Ellie’s Table café specials, and the next you'll be creating stunning gourmet desserts for luxury weddings and corporate celebrations. You'll gain hands-on experience producing a wide variety of desserts like our French Dessert Collection, Italian Dessert Collection, Latin Dessert Collection, and custom desserts designed specifically for our clients events.

Whether you're looking to sharpen your pastry techniques or learn the ins and outs of large-scale, high-end dessert production, you'll be working alongside an experienced team that loves sharing knowledge, encouraging creativity, and taking pride in every dessert that leaves the kitchen.

Every shift includes a complimentary hot lunch because we believe great food should be enjoyed by the people who make it.

Schedule: Full-Time | Tuesday–Saturday | 8:00 AM–4:30 PM

Pay: $23-$25/hour based on experience

What You'll Do

Assist our pastry chefs in preparing, baking, decorating, and assembling our signature desserts from scratch.
Learn new techniques while contributing ideas for seasonal desserts, specialty menus, and creative presentations.
Maintain organized workstations, properly store ingredients, and follow all food safety and sanitation standards.
Thrive in both collaborative team production and independent tasks, adapting to changing priorities while consistently meeting event deadlines.
Take pride in producing desserts that look as incredible as they taste and help create memorable experiences for thousands of guests each year.

What We’re Looking For

Experience: Minimum 2 years of professional baking experience in a high-volume kitchen (Catering or Bakery background preferred).
Efficiency: Strong multitasking and time-management skills to ensure every order is perfect and on time.
Attitude: A positive, reliable team player who is "proud of the plate" they put out.
Teamwork: Capable of taking directions & staying focused while working independently, as well as contributing positively in collaborative team environment.

The Perks

Competitive Pay: $23–$25/hour based on your experience.
Family Culture: Join a thriving, friendly team that has been a community staple for five decades.
Daily Hot Lunch: Enjoy a delicious, complimentary hot meal during every shift!

Pay: $23.00 - $25.00 per hour
