Columbia, Mo-U Knead Sweets, a family-owned bakery, opened last September half a block west of Ninth Street in downtown Columbia.

Helena and Allen Shih, the owners of U Knead Sweets, founded the shop after working at Yen Ching’s in Jefferson City. Erica Shih, their daughter, balances helping at the shop with her studies at the University of Missouri. She was with her mother when the idea was first conceived.
