GREENCASTLE, Pa. - The new tenant of 42 E. Baltimore St. in Greencastle hopes it won't be long until she can give the town something Simply Irresistible from the old ovens of Wolf's Bakery.
Local entrepreneur Shayna Gehring has signed a lease to move her business, The Black Tie Affair, into the empty storefront as early as Sept. 1, and, pending the results of the sheriff's sale scheduled for Aug. 11, use the old bakery equipment to expand her services with a new pastry division called Simply Irresistible: Cakes, Cookies, Chocolates and More.
Gehring has a history of filling the vacant storefronts in downtown Greencastle with thriving retail.
In late 2007, she gave her event-planning business a new home by moving into the old home of Cup O' Joe after Steve and Jodi Carbaugh merged the coffee shop with Wolf's Bakery.
"I chose Greencastle because this is an upscale town that has that Norman Rockwell feel to it," she said.
