Passing The Torch To The Next Generation

By Kristi Elzinga and Marlena Karlsson

Lynda Stone had a desire to create a home for family and friends to gather and a community to find connection when she started her business in 1986. Just recently, the torch has been passed to her daughter Kristi Elzinga, new owner and CEO.

Our private dining, restaurant, bakery and patio have received a beautiful new remodel. We wanted a timeless look to create a welcoming space for events, private parties, business meetings or just a lunch out with friends. Our private dining room seats up to 25 people, and is perfect for bridal showers, family reunions, business meetings and more. Our desire, all of these years, has been to create an experience for our guests - one of hospitality and excellence. This was our focus as we worked to give our space a new look.

Our catering and delivery team serves Williamson and Davidson Counties. We are available to deliver cakes, box lunches or cater your entire off-site event.

Proudly displayed in the receiving area of Puffy Muffin is this sign, “Our family is blessed with a rich heritage of talented cooks and bakers who have loved and enjoyed the fellowship of family and friends over many meals. It is no surprise that good food and hospitality became not only a passion for Lynda and her girls, but also a profession! We hope you feel the warmth of our home as you enter our doors and that your experience with us is memorable and one of a kind.”

"It is truly an honor for our family to be serving you for more than three decades and I’m grateful to continue our family legacy," says Kristi.
