✨ Welcome to The Joyful Crumb ✨
This is my official soft launch and first step into starting my little sourdough micro bakery dream 🥹🤍
Everything is handcrafted in small batches with slow fermentation, simple ingredients, and lots of love.

There’s nothing better than creating a fall menu on a crisp fall day! 🍁🍂

The starter is happy, the ideas are flowing, and we're cooking up some cozy fall goodies for you all!

The Joyful Crumb’s FALL MENU drops Friday at 4 PM CST! 🎃🍂

Get ready for all the cozy, cinnamony, pumpkin spiced goodness! 🧡 We can’t wait to share what we've been working on. Who’s ready?!

🍞✨ HELLOOOO, WE’VE MISSED YOU! ✨🍞

The Joyful Crumb will officially be back up and running in just a few weeks! 🥹 We’ve definitely missed baking for you all and can’t wait to get back into the kitchen!

While we were on our little break, we may have accidentally committed the ultimate sourdough crime by killing our starter 🫠 Sooo, we’re starting over lol.

We also did a little dabbling while we were away and started playing around with Joyful Crumb merch! 👀We’ve made some shirts and koozies and they turned out SUPER cute! So if merch is something you’d be interested in, let us know because we may just have to make it happen!

We’ve also been thinking about adding gift certificates! Especially with the holidays coming up, we thought this could be such a fun option for the sourdough lover in your life!

As for the bakery itself, we’re going to ease back into things with a smaller-ish menu to start, so keep those eyes peeled for a brand new menu coming soon!✨

And since we’re heading into FALL 🍂🎃…the new menu may or may not have some fall themed goodies making an appearance. 😉

Thank you all for sticking with us during our little break! We can’t wait to bring back all the Joyful Crumb goodness.

Keep an eye out…we’ll be back before you know it! 🥰

Hey friends! 🖤🍞

I wanted to give everyone a quick update.

Due to a temporary schedule change at my full time job over the next 10 weeks, Joyful Crumb will be taking a short break from accepting new orders.

If you've already placed a pre order, don't worry those will be completed and ready this weekend as promised!

While we're away from baking for customers, we won't be away from the kitchen. We'll be using this time to test new recipes, create new menu items, and come back even better. ✨

As soon as we're ready to reopen, we'll announce it here along with an updated menu full of some exciting new goodies. And who knows... by the time we're back this fall, there just might be a few cozy pumpkin and fall spice treats making their way onto the menu. 😉🎃🍂🤎

Thank you all so much for your patience, support, and understanding. It truly means the world to this little bakery. We can't wait to get back to doing what we love and we hope you'll be here when we do!

See you soon, Joyful Crumb 🖤

🤎 We're back! 🤎

Hi friends!

Thank you all so much for your patience while the bakery took a little summer break. It was such a blessing to slow down for a bit, enjoy the holidays, spend warm summer evenings camping, and make memories with family and friends. Those moments are so special, and we are incredibly grateful for the time to enjoy them.

Now it's time to dust off the flour, feed the sourdough starter, and get back to baking! 🥖✨

The menu is being finalized today and will be posted tomorrow at 5:00 PM CST. Orders will open as soon as it's posted, so keep an eye on the page!

Thank you for supporting this little bakery and allowing us the time to step away and come back refreshed. Your kindness, patience, and support truly mean more than you know. We can't wait to bake for all of you again and fill your kitchens with fresh sourdough! See you tomorrow! 🤎

We've been busy in the kitchen testing out a new recipe, and we think we may have a winner! 🤤

Meet our new Oreo Cinnamon Rolls! These soft, fluffy sourdough cinnamon rolls will be topped with a rich cream cheese Oreo frosting and loaded with cookies-and-cream goodness.

These are from our test batch, and let's just say they didn't last long around here! 🍪✨

We can't wait to add these to the menu and share them with all of you. Keep an eye out for an official launch date coming soon!

Thank you for supporting our little bakery and following along as we test new recipes and bring new goodies to the menu. ❤️

💛 A Little Bakery Update 💛

We wanted to let everyone know that we'll be stepping away from taking orders for the next couple of weeks.

This time will give us a chance to work on some old recipes, test some new ones, and tweak a few things behind the scenes so we can continue bringing you the best baked goods possible. 🥖🧁

We're also looking forward to slowing down a bit and spending some quality time with our friends and family while summer is here. These moments are important, and we're excited to enjoy them together!

And before we go, we have a muffin vote winner! 🎉 The Lemon Poppy Seed Muffin came out on top, so keep an eye out for it when we return and release our updated menu. We can't wait for you all to try it! 🍋

Thank you so much for the support you've shown our little bakery. Every order, share, comment, recommendation, and vote means more to us than you know.

We'll be back soon with updates, new ideas, and of course, plenty of sourdough goodness! ❤️

See you in a couple of weeks!
