First and foremost, we are incredibly grateful that no one on our staff was hurt. Early this morning, our bakery was broken into along with a few of our neighbors and while we are still processing what happened, we are thankful to be safe and surrounded by such an amazing community.

We will be opening a little late today as we clean up and take care of things. Thank you for standing by us — we truly appreciate every one of you.

I spent some time employed at Kondeterei Bittner in Düsseldorf Germany. In plum season we made two different types off plum kuchen. Yeasted dough topped with plums, baked and glazed. The most popular. The other was pflaumen kuchen omas stil. Plum cake grandmas style. My favorite. Cookie crust, a layer of almond pound cake, fresh plums, under a crown of buttery streussel. We have slices available in store. Come taste one of my favorites.

ln August of 2001, in Minneapolis, Minnesota, at the National Baking Center, Bennison's sourdough starter, Moe, was born.
Flour and water were mixed together and left to gather natural, airborne yeast. Every day since, without fail, Moe has been fed a constant diet of unbleached, unbromated hard red winter wheat flour. Each day Moe goes to work producing the delicious sourdough bread with its classic tang that Bennison's customers have come to love. Come join the party August 21st- 24th at Bennison's, we'll have half-price sourdough loaves and FREE mini cupcakes!
