Our Story
The Baker and The Bread was born out of a love for our morning routine. As new parents, we can't wait to wake up and have our fresh Sourdough toast with scrambled eggs and piping hot coffee — even on the days we could use 8 more hours of sleep.
We loved it so much we decided to craft our bread in-house, ensuring every slice is made with simple ingredients and free from preservatives. Our morning toast has become a cherished ritual that brings us joy every day.
Now, we want to extend that joy to you, our community. Rooted in time-honored techniques and sprinkled with our own unique flair, our sourdough loaves and premium pastries are crafted to elevate your everyday mealtimes.
