The 82,500 square feet Pasadena Star-News building located at 524 E. Colorado Boulevard was designed by Joseph Blick and completed in 1925.
Greenbridge Investment Partners now owns the building located near the Pasadena Playhouse, Pasadena Civic Center and the Paseo. The space that will be occupied by Last Crumb was recently vacated by Le Cordon Blue College of Culinary Arts. In addition to the infrastructure and utility updates required by Le Cordon Blue, the building retains much of its original architectural detail, including ceilings and masonry.
Founded in Los Angeles in 2020, Last Crumb ships premium cookies inspired by celebrity culture directly to consumers for $140 a box/$12 a cookie under the slogan: “cookies so good your grandma will disown you “. The company uses top quality ingredients and exclusive recipes; it relies on its customers’ social media posts to promote its premium experience. The strategy resulted in a waiting list of customers and investors. The success of Last Crumb necessitated the expansion of its production and performance facilities.
