About Secret Ingredient Baking

Secret Ingredient Baking started in a home kitchen with one sourdough starter, a stack of hand-me-down recipes, and a habit of baking way more than one household could eat. The baking turned into a lot of requests for some of the items now available to you on the menu, and the idea of a small-batch, custom order bakery took off.

Every loaf, muffin, and cookie is made in small batches to order using simple, real ingredients — no shortcuts, no preservatives, just the kind of baking that takes a little extra time on purpose and tastes super delicious. Sophia, our sourdough has been passed down for a few generations and produces delicate, delicious and delectable breads which are healthy and sure to satisfy.

While the menu hosts a lot of our family specialties, it will also change with the seasons to offer additional treats that incorporate our family's favorites for every season. We look forward to sharing them all with you!

Small Batch

We bake in limited quantities so every item gets real attention — and so nothing sits around losing its freshness.

Naturally Leavened

Our sourdough is fermented slowly using a live starter, no commercial yeast shortcuts.

Made to Order Box

All baking is made “to order” and is fresh and baked with you in mind. Nothing has a shelf life, as the purpose is to please even the most discerning palate!
