Making any occasion special
Mikkelsen’s Pastry Shop was established in 2000 by Paw & Elizabeth Mikkelsen. Paw grew up in a pastry shop in Denmark which was owned by his parents. He came to the US and met his wife Elizabeth in the late 80’s. Elizabeth was born in England and moved to Ithaca, New York as a child, where she went on to attend Cornell University’s School of Hotel Administration. Together, Paw and Elizabeth share over 60 years of work experience with some of the most reputable names in the hospitality industry, including The Plaza Hotel in NYC, The Ritz-Carlton (Naples and Boston), the Four Seasons Hotels (Boston and Houston), and others.
