About Us

After five years in the River Market I made the difficult decision to close the storefront. What started as a self-taught hobby in my home kitchen quickly turned into a full-fledged, brick and mortar, profitable, and BUSY operation. While I am proud of what I've created with Sweet Petites, I have not been immune to the difficulties of running a small business, both as a busy wife and mother of three and a business owner fighting a town that seems, at times, determined to create barriers that prevent small businesses from thriving. If I am honest with myself, and all of you, the difficulties of our location have simply begun to outweigh the joy and happiness the shop once brought me and my heart is telling me it is time for the next era. Please continue to follow along to see what’s next!

About the Owner

Lindsay Goff was born and raised in Kansas City and currently lives in Fairway, KS. She went to the University of Kansas seeking a major in Communications, and shortly after, she moved back to Kansas City, where she attended cosmetology school for a career as a hairstylist. She loved her time as a hairstylist. But after about 10 years, she decided to leave that career to become a stay-at-home mom for her premature twins. Baking was a self-taught hobby, but she found a fierce love for it when she stayed at home. It started as baking for parties, showers, and her husband’s office, but it quickly built up to so much more. Pretty soon, she got requests for her treats from family, friends, and strangers for events of all kinds. That was the beginning of Sweet Petites KC. When she’s not juggling baking, home renovations, and kids’ activities, you can find her with family and friends enjoying life.
