MILWAUKEE — Amanda Buhrman, owner of Sweetly Baked, serves up CBD-infused treats.

Buhrman started baking as a hobby during the early days of the pandemic. She said that’s when she discovered her hidden talent.

“I didn’t realize that I really had a passion for baking and that I was actually really good at it,” said Buhrman. “I got a lot of joy from it.”

Her love for baking turned into a business when she experimented with CBD-infused ingredients.

She started in a food truck where she sold CBD-infused baked goods to a growing customer base.

“I was looking at the market,” said Buhrman. “At the time, there really wasn’t much going on for a CBD bakery.”

Buhrman said she wanted to create a new kind of edible experience. She said she wants to redefine the way people think about CBD and baked goods.

“Destigmatizing kind of the old school edible brownie vibe from that,” said Buhrman. “Why can’t you have a beautiful gourmet item and something that helps you relax as well?”

Sweetly Baked offers a variety of sweets, from macaroons and scones to brownies and even dog treats.

Buhrman said she is committed to using high-quality ingredients and producing small-batch treats.

“We’re a small-batch bakery and we try to put a lot of time and effort into the items that we produce,” said Buhrman.

MILWAUKEE – Milwaukee received a $25 million federal grant to fund a “complete transformation” to a segment of Center Street, the city’s Department of Public Works announced on Friday.

The Safe Streets and Roads for All Implementation Grant will be used to add enhanced pedestrian crossings, protected bike lanes, transit boarding improvements, street trees and traffic-calming measures.

“If you’re driving, if you’re walking, if you’re using a bike, if you’re a stroller-pusher, if you’re using an e-scooter, or the like, that is what our goal has been, that is what our focus has been since I have been mayor, making the streets safer for all and this will help us do that,” said Mayor Cavalier Johnson.

The “Center Street Transformation Project” will address an almost two-mile stretch of Center Street from Sherman Boulevard to Teutonia Avenue identified as part of the city’s “High Injury Network,” the DPW said. 

The DPW said the total project budget is $31,250,000, which includes a $6.25 million local match requirement that the city will contribute.
