Hey y’all!
I’m the baker and busy mom of five behind Putnam’s Eggcellent Delights. Between homeschooling, chasing kids and chickens, and keeping up with life, baking has become my happy place. My days are full, loud, joyful, and always a little messy — but baking has become the place where everything slows down and feels just right. With the encouragement of my incredibly supportive husband, I turned my love for homemade wholesome baked goods into a small business that lets me share a piece of our home with yours.
If you had told me a few years ago that my kitchen would become the heart of a little home bakery, I probably would’ve laughed. A year ago, I was just a busy District Clerk, trying to keep up with five kids (12,9,7,4,& 2!), a busy household, and a husband who has always believed in my dreams even before I did. After working in the court system for 10 years, I decided to dedicate all my time to my home! Best decision ever! As a work-aholic, I had to find something to add to my super busy days!
Baking started as my quiet moment — the place where the noise of the day softened and the smell of warm bread or fresh cookies made everything feel a little lighter. My kids would crowd around the counter, waiting for muffins to cool, sneaking cookie dough when they thought I wasn’t looking. Those moments became my favorite part of the day.
One afternoon, after pulling a batch of bread from the oven, my husband said, “You know… other people would love this just as much as we do.” That tiny sentence planted the seed for what would become Putnam’s Eggcellent Delights. I prayed hard on it and with Jesus leading the way, here we are now!
What began as baking for my family slowly grew into baking for friends, neighbors, and now a whole community that has welcomed my homemade goodies with so much kindness. Every order still feels personal to me, because it is. Everything I make comes straight from my home, my hands, and my heart.
I’m Julia Putnam, and this little bakery is a piece of my family’s story. Thank you for being here, for supporting my dream, and for letting me share a bit of homemade comfort with you. I hope every bite brings you the same joy it brings us.
Welcome to our table. I hope you find something here that makes your day a little more eggcellent
