“We don’t sell anything that we won’t give to our own kids” says owners of Zen Baking Company, Chonnie Richey and Czarina Hounsel. The sisters bake their own breads for sandwiches, Filipino brioche, pastries, cookies and cake balls. Smoothies are made with creamy Greek strained Fage yogurt (pronounced ‘fa-yeh’) and fresh fruits.

Love to hear “We don’t sell anything that we won’t give to our own kids”…as this is my theme, too. When it comes to bread I make sure there is no ‘high fructose corn syrup’ it’s disappointing that this ingredient is so freely used when it can easily be left out. Thanks for the write up look forward to visiting Zen Baking Company.
