Braided by hand on Thursday night. Still warm when you pick it up Friday morning. One small kitchen, one bake a week, and never a loaf that sat around.
Ordering is open — closes Wednesday at 8:00 pm Pickup & local delivery
How the week goes
Everything is baked to order, which means the calendar does the work a warehouse usually would.
Choose your loaves, your size, and whether you're picking up or having it dropped off.
You are hereWe tally the week and buy exactly what we need. Nothing extra, nothing wasted.
Dough rises twice. Every strand gets rolled and braided by hand at the kitchen table.
Egg-washed, seeded, baked. Loaves are out and cooling by eight, ready for you by nine.

Our story
Shari baked for her own table first — six braids every Friday, more than four people could reasonably eat. Then it was for the neighbors. Then for the neighbors' cousins. At some point the counter stopped fitting the loaves and we started a list.
The recipe has not changed since 1987. The only thing that's new is that you can now get on the list without knowing someone.
If it isn't good enough for my own Shabbat table, it doesn't leave the kitchen.
Before you order
Order by Wednesday night and it comes out of the oven with your name on it.

Every loaf is braided the night before. Sizes and add-ons are chosen on the next screen.
Both options happen Friday morning, straight out of the oven.
We'll text you when your loaves come out.
