Nostalgia

I love looking through old photos. It's an opportunity to appreciate where we've been. Recently, I came across these pictures from the bakery, which I'm guessing were taken in the late 70's. Our family has been in the baking business for generations. My husband and his brother were taught how to bake by their dad, who in turned learned from his father. Even great granddad was a baker! It just runs in the family. My husband can't imagine doing anything else. There is something very special about turning simple ingredients like flour and eggs into a hearty bread or decadent pastries.

These photos are from when Grandin Bakery was located in Grandin Mall. We still have many customers that remember stopping in there for treats after dance class or hockey practice when they were kids. And now they are bringing their own children by the bakery for cookies or donuts. We have some pretty great customers. Thanks for letting us help you with your school lunches and family BBQs, with your birthday parties and special occasions for so many years!
