Brown Butter Cinnamon Rolls

Brown Butter Cinnamon Rolls

$4.75

Soft, spiraled rolls baked fresh each morning. We brown the butter until nutty and golden, then fold it into every layer for warmth you can taste.

Caraway Rye Loaf

Caraway Rye Loaf

$8.25

A dense, aromatic loaf rooted in old-world baking traditions. Lightly sweetened with molasses and speckled with caraway — extraordinary with smoked fish or sharp cheese.

Dark Chocolate Croissant

Dark Chocolate Croissant

$5.50

Hand-laminated and baked until shatteringly crisp. Two bars of bittersweet chocolate run through the center — rich, flaky, and best enjoyed still warm from the oven.

Heritage Sourdough Boule

Heritage Sourdough Boule

$9.50

Our signature round loaf, fermented for 48 hours in a traditional banneton. A crackling crust gives way to an open, tangy crumb — perfect for tearing and sharing at the table.

Poppy Seed Morning Bun

Poppy Seed Morning Bun

$4.25

Named for the bakery and baked with love since day one. A tender brioche knot rolled in poppy seeds and finished with a whisper of citrus and honey.

Seasonal Fruit Tart

Seasonal Fruit Tart

$7.00

A rotating showcase of whatever is ripest at the farmers' market. Buttery shell, silken cream, and fruit arranged by hand — simple, honest, and never quite the same twice.

Our History

Three Generations of Slow Baking

Poppy Seed Bakery began in a family kitchen, where our founder learned to feed a wild starter from her grandmother's earthen crock. That same starter — nurtured daily for over thirty years — still leavens every loaf we bake.

We believe bread should never be rushed. Our dough rests through long, cool ferments; our pastries are laminated by hand; our fruit is sourced from neighbors we know by name. It is not nostalgia for its own sake — it is how flavor deepens, how crumb opens, how a simple meal becomes a memory.

Today we remain a micro-bakery by choice: small batches, early mornings, and the quiet satisfaction of pulling something honest from the oven before dawn.
