    I feel like this should be common sense, but goddamn does it come up often as fuck. If you’re going to a built-in bakery, like in a grocery store or Starbucks little bakery display, we don’t fully make 90% of that shit. It comes in pre-made. The shit we do put in the oven is mostly to warm it or just finish it off.

    We most likely don’t even have the box to tell you exactly when the supplier baked it. We sell them that quickly. We just slap icing on.

    We have to put out so much product in a day, on such tight timing, that if we had to mix and bake our own cakes and bread, we’d be constantly out. That is part of why our shit is cheaper than a high-end independent establishment.
