Oui love bread!

Crescent Bakes started from my love of bread. Growing up in Paris, fresh bread was a daily routine. 

Having kids brought back these precious memories and inspired me to share this simple luxury with my family. What started as a home kitchen experiment quickly became a traditional treat for family, friends, and our Astoria neighbors.

Crescent Bakes is a family company, and from my family to yours, I hope this bread brings a little joy and a taste of Paris to your home.

Hands in, additives out.

We mix, shape, and bake every loaf by hand. No machinery, and no additives, because handmade bread doesn't need help surviving the process. That's why our loaves aren't always perfectly uniform.

When you buy a Crescent Bakes loaf, you're buying from real bakers - not a factory.

Slow bread tastes better.

We use three basic ingredients: flour, sea salt, water. Our flour comes from King Arthur, never bleached or bromated. Everything ferments slowly in 24 to 72 hours.

Slow fermentation means more flavor, easier digestion, and loaves that stay soft on your counter for 4 days wrapped in a kitchen towel. Great bread can't be rushed.

We want you to enjoy your bread with zero guilt. At Crescent Bakes, every decision is made with care and people in mind.

- Our loaves and baguettes are larger than most, so you get more bread for your money.

- Our driver receives 100% of your delivery fee.

- We minimize waste in our production process: loaves cold proof in reusable cheesecloths (washed after every use), and our packaging is 100% plastic-free.
