Our Story
It all started just before the Guys first son was born on a quest to make his mom’s sourdough bread! The Bread Guy was determined to get some yummy bread like he had growing up and after many attempts, BAM! He took it to work, and a few people asked how much he’d charge to make them some too! From there it grew into a fermented love. He began to seek out web articles, cookbooks, other pastry professionals and YouTube-university. Once down the rabbit-hole, he attended a weekend intensive course at King Arthur Flour in Vermont that focused on techniques and how to open your own bakery!
The Bread Guy has by now expanded his repertoire to include the original sourdough with a more sophisticated flare with a Non GMO whole wheat flour as well as hand rolled and laminated croissants and other pastries such as almond croissants, chocolate almond croissants, chocolate croissants, danishes and the signature Croissant Pocket Sandwiches (special order only)!
As he continues to learn, we have added many European favorites like Bavarian Soft Pretzels, Challah& Focaccia! He and The Bread Guy team are always learning and testing new items with traditional basis and new techniques and flavors.
FAQs
Do you make Gluten Free products?
No, we would want a secondary kitchen so that the risk of cross contamination is not there. BUT, all of our Sourdough loaves are long-proofed and are GREAT for those with a Gluten Sensitivity!
What does ‘Long Proofed’ Mean? Why is this best?
We use an all-natural sourdough starter, named Olga. The loaves are leavened only with that which is a live culture of yeast. Long Proofing means that the loaves sit for at least 24 hours in a cool place to rise before being baked. This gives the natural yeast a chance to start breaking down the gluten in the dough so that it is easier on your system to break down. This also usually decreases the blood sugar spike due to the body needing less insulin to process this bread as opposed to commercial or non-long proofed breads.
