🐇🐇Happy Easter Weekend!🐣🐣
We will NOT be open on Easter Sunday, but we made a ton of bread for tomorrow (Saturday 8am-2pm). Come stock up on all of your favorites, including Lemon/Blueberry and Jalapeño/Cheddar. In addition, we will have bagels, babka, cinnamon rolls, and cookies! No bunny shaped loaves, because well, we think all our Countries look like bunnies!
🚨REMINDER🚨 We will be CLOSED the following week for Sprint Break, but will be open on 4/11-4/12 for normal hours (8-2)

We are getting VERY close to completing our new production/shop space, and with that we are looking to add to our amazing team!

We have a position in the shop that we are looking to fill ASAP. Hours to start will be…
Wednesdays (8:30-4:30)
Sundays (6:30-2:30)
and Tuesdays (8:30-4:30)

Back of house positions would begin once we move over to our new space (in the next month or so), but we are starting to interview now! The roles we are looking to fill will vary based on each candidate’s experience. This could range from an entry-level dough shaper to a full-time baker/mixer position. Experience is always a huge plus, but more important is a positive attitude, attention to detail, and willingness to learn.

Additionally, there could be a situation where a candidate could support both our FOH and BOH where needed. If any of these roles sound like a good fit, please email us your resume to [email protected]!

☘️☘️IRISH SODA BREAD🍀🍀
We will have our version of this tasty treat FRI/SAT/SUN! We make ours with a combination of buttermilk, and a healthy amount of our sourdough starter. The dough is allowed to slightly bulk ferment overnight in the fridge, before shaping and baking the next morning! Made with organic raisins and just enough caraway seeds, all it needs is some butter! Sláinte!

CHALLAH!! We’ve been trying to get this one out to you all for a while now! Non-dairy and naturally fermented, our version is made with wildflower honey and olive oil.
Come grab some in shop this Wednesday! We will unfortunately NOT be at Bell Works ( ) this week due to losing a prep day from the storm. We wanted to give you all enough time to pivot your plans a bit and come out to see us in Little Silver!

This weekend is going to be amazing!

Friday: Say hello to our KING CAKES! We've filled our babka dough with a tasty cream-cheese filling, topped it with a vanilla bean glaze, and decorated it with Mardi Gras-themed sanding sugar. Each one comes with a small baby figurine to hide inside. Whoever finds the baby in their slice is believed to have a year of good luck! Laissez les bons temps rouler!

Saturday: Chocolate Cherry Sourdough is making a comeback! This test run for next week is packed with dried cherries and chocolate chunks. Our Jalapeño/Cheddar will also be available as it always is on Saturdays.

Sunday: Jalapeño/Cheddar returns for the Super Bowl! It's the perfect game-day treat.
