🥖🤍 New here? Let me introduce myself & explain how Petra Bakery works!
Petra Bakery has been growing so much lately, and we’ve gotten a lot of new followers over the past couple of months. 🥹🤍 So I thought it was finally time to make a little post introducing myself and answering some of the questions I get about the bakery and our self-service honor stand!
First… who is Petra?
Hi! I’m Dana 👋🏼 I’m 25 years old and a mom of three.
And yes… my name is Dana, NOT Petra 😂 Petra is the name of the bakery! But honestly, I don’t mind at all when people call me Petra. At this point, I answer to both. 🤍
🥖 When did Petra Bakery start?
I started in December 2025 with literally TWO loaves of sourdough and a few cinnamon rolls.
Now I’m baking 30+ loaves between the stand and preorders, plus all the other goodies. 🥹 It’s crazy to look back and see how much it has grown in such a short time, and I’m so thankful for everyone who has supported me along the way.
🏡 How does the bakery stand work?
I usually prepare my bread dough on Thursday, bake Friday night along with all the treats, and open the stand Saturday morning.
If I have anything left, I’ll open again on Sunday — but most weekends we sell out by Sunday morning.
The stand is completely self-service and honor system. 🤍
You simply come to the stand, pick whatever goodies you’d like, and pay either with cash in the cash box or by scanning one of the payment QR codes hanging inside the stand.
No need to knock or wait for me — just grab, pay & enjoy! 🥖
🍞 What will I always find at Petra Bakery?
I’ll always try to have:
• Plain & flavored sourdough breads
• Sourdough cinnamon rolls
• Baklava
The rest changes every week! I love adding different things like bagels, cookies, pies, muffins, brownies, donuts and more.
That’s why checking the weekly menu is the best way to see what’s coming that weekend. 🤍
🌾 Is everything really made with sourdough?
YES! Anything I make that uses dough or batter is made with real sourdough starter with no commercial yeast added.
That includes my breads, bagels, cookies, muffins, pies, brownies, donuts, cinnamon rolls, pizza dough and more.
A few items, like baklava and banana pudding, are not sourdough.
📦 Do you take preorders during the week, or only for Saturday?
YES! You can preorder for pickup during the weekdays too. You don’t have to wait for the weekend stand.
💬 What’s the best way to preorder?
Messaging me right here on Facebook is the easiest and fastest way!
You can also message me on Saturday morning and ask me to reserve something for you if you can’t make it to the stand early.
And tbh… reserving is the BEST way to make sure you get what you want before it sells out.
💕 How can you support Petra Bakery?
You don’t always have to buy something to support my little bakery.
Sharing my posts, telling your friends and family about Petra Bakery, interacting with the page, or simply spreading the word helps me more than you probably realize.
And if you’ve tried Petra Bakery before, leaving me a review here on the page would mean SO much to me and helps new customers feel comfortable giving us a try. 🤍
From two little loaves and a few cinnamon rolls to what Petra Bakery is becoming today… thank you for being part of it. 🥹🥖🤍
And if there’s anything I didn’t answer, drop your question in the comments! I’ll be happy to answer it. 🫶🏼
