At Bread Artist, each loaf tells a story of patience, passion, and purpose. Nestled in the heart of Venice, Florida, this organic bakery celebrates the timeless craft of traditional baking. Every loaf is naturally leavened with wild yeast, shaped by hand, and baked to golden perfection. No preservatives, no shortcuts, and only pure bread that warms the soul.
This bread is a symphony of simplicity and flavor. Made with organic white flour, water, salt, and our carefully nurtured sourdough culture, it undergoes a 24-hour fermentation process. This patient approach results in a loaf with a crisp, golden crust and a tender, airy interior. The natural fermentation enhances the bioavailability of nutrients, making this not just a delicious bread but a nutritious one, too. This loaf is a versatile staple for any table, perfect for sandwiches or enjoyed with a spread of butter.
Ingredients: Organic Unbleached White Wheat Flour, Water, Sea Salt
Our Cranberry Pecan Sourdough is a harmonious blend of tangy sourdough, sweet-tart cranberries, and buttery pecans. We begin with our signature sourdough base, allowing it to ferment for over 20 hours to develop its distinct flavor and digestibility. Then, we carefully fold in a generous amount of plump, juicy cranberries and crunchy pecans. The result is a bread that’s not only a feast for the senses but also packed with antioxidants from the cranberries and heart-healthy fats from the pecans. Each slice is a perfect balance of flavors and textures, making it ideal for toast, sandwiches, or as an accompaniment to your favorite cheese board.
Ingredients: Organic White Flour, Water, Organic Pecans, Organic Maple Syrup, Dried Cranberries, Sea Salt
Our Cinnamon Apple Challah takes the beloved traditional challah to new heights of flavor. We begin with our classic challah dough, enriched with eggs, honey, and a touch of olive oil. Then, we infuse it with fragrant cinnamon and fold in plump, juicy apples. As the dough slowly rises, the cinnamon permeates every strand, creating a warm, comforting aroma.
Ingredients: Organic All Purpose Flour, Water, Organic Eggs, Organic Olive Oil, Sea Salt, Organic Apples, Cinnamon, Organic Cane Sugar
Our classic challah dough, enriched with eggs and honey, then generously topped with organic poppy seeds. Each hand-rolled and carefully shaped roll has a tender, pillowy interior and a beautifully bronzed crust.
Ingredients: Organic all purpose flour, filtered water, organic eggs, olive oil, organic poppy seeds, yeast, salt, organic cane sugar, organic vanilla extract, almonds and/or walnuts
We’ve taken our beloved challah dough and given it a savory twist! Each knot is carefully hand-tied, then brushed with organic olive oil, fresh garlic, and aromatic herbs before being baked to golden perfection. The result? Pillowy-soft centers with a gently crisp exterior, perfect for tearing and sharing. These irresistible bites combine the rich, tender texture you love in our challah with classic garlic bread flavors. Ideal alongside soup, salad, or as an elevated dinner bread.

EXCELLENT Based on 64 reviews Posted on L. Z.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I left a message at Bread artist and Olya texted me back right away! She agreed for me to meet up with her the following day on a Saturday (her day off!) I was searching for some sourdough starter and she said she would love to share some of hers with me. I met with her and purchased 2 starters ( 1 white, 1 rye) and a loaf of her wheat rustic and cranberry pecan loaf! She spent extra time answering and addressing my questions about sourdough baking (I am new to it) and she told me she was willing to continue to help me if I needed it! She also texted me extra info about it. I went home and began making bread with her wonderful sourdough starter! My breads have been turning out so great using her starter! And we also cannot get over how tasty her bread is that we purchased! Olya is a real bread artist- her breads are so beautiful and taste so good! I was impressed with how very kind and genuine Olya is, to meet with me on her day off and give me advice and suggestions also! Olya bakes with love and she is amazing! Thank you, Bread Artist!Posted on Laura DirxTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I love the bread! I highly recommend the sourdough and the poppyseed bread!! Wow it will blow your mind! Freeze any of it and take out as needed you will still have the best bread ever! I love the taste and familyPosted on Alla PasikhovTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely delicious organic bake goods. Baked to order, so fresh and mouthwatering. The poppyseed roll, the raisin walnut sourdough bread and lemon blueberry challah were my favorite. You can’t get anything fresher anywhere. Olga has an amazing customer service, She literally helped me out twice on the weekend when I needed few items to bring to friend’s house on a very short notice. Highly recommend this wonderful local baker.Posted on Flo LeibinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Omg! I didnt realize i was to pick up bread!

"Amazing organic bread from the Bread Artist bakery! Their sourdough, cranberry , and plain loaves are all incredible - crusty outside, soft inside, and stay fresh all week. Best artisanal bread I've found in Florida, reminds me of NYC/SF quality. Great value and friendly service. Thursday pickup or local delivery don’t miss this hidden gem!Posted on James FullertonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Purchased several loaves of wonderful crusty sour dough bread. Always terrific. Good choices available.Posted on Nancy CornnellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I love bread, I mean, I love great tasting bread, not Wonder (which I don't consider bread) This is the best bread I have had in years. The sourdough is just delightful in its robust flavor and solid texture. The challah is like a dessert in a sandwich. The service is very quick when you go to pick up your order. The Bread Artist knows what she is doing, she is a gifted baker.Posted on Nancy HarwoodTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have had the sourdough white, rustic and rye and they are excellent. Last time I ordered I got the cranberry pecan and it is to die for. All of Bread Artist breads and other offerings are wonderful without all the added chemicals, seed oils etc. They are perfect and healthy! Thank you !Posted on Nikole AndrewsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The best sourdough!
