Baking With The Hunter Valley Heart
We’re Bread Basket, a family-owned bakery in the Hunter Valley. Since opening our doors in 1994, we’ve become a trusted part of the community, blending tradition with friendly service.
With four generations of baking experience, we stand out for our sourdough, cakes, pies, catering, and wholesale, always made fresh with care. From everyday favourites to custom creations, we’re here to bring flavour and warmth to every occasion.
Generations of Tradition
Our story spans decades of baking knowledge, passed down through four generations. Every loaf and cake we make carries the skill, patience and passion that set us apart in the Hunter Valley.
FRESH EVERY DAY
We rise early so you can enjoy fresh sourdough, pies and cakes straight from the oven. From breakfast on the go-to treats for later, our shelves are always stocked with flavour.
MORE THAN BREAD
We’re more than a bakery. With catering for events and wholesale supply for cafés and restaurants, we help locals enjoy quality food — whether it’s at home, work or on the move.
Our Baked Goods
Cakes
Celebrate in style with custom cakes for birthdays, weddings and special occasions. Choose your flavour, design and size, and our team will bring your vision to life with fresh ingredients.
Pies
Our hearty steak, chicken, and vegetable pies baked daily with golden pastry and generous fillings are perfect for lunch, a quick snack, or sharing with friends and family.
Sourdough Bread
Our famous Hunter sourdough is slow-fermented for flavour and texture. From classic white to rye and specialty loaves, we bake fresh daily for the perfect slice or sandwich.
Catering
Hosting a meeting or celebration? We’ve got your catering covered with freshly made platters of sandwiches, pastries and sweets, prepared each morning and packed for easy pickup.
Wholesale
We support cafés and venues with daily wholesale bread and baked goods. Our early starts, reliable supply and HACCP accreditation mean you can trust every delivery.
All the Good Stuff We Do
We bake a wide range of treats daily, from crusty sourdough loaves to handmade pies and custom cakes. Everything is crafted by our skilled team with care, quality ingredients and time-honoured recipes. You’ll also find pastries, tarts and specialty breads that showcase our love for variety and our commitment to keeping things fresh.
Beyond the counter, we make catering simple with sandwiches, pastries, and sweet platters, plus wholesale supplies trusted by cafés and venues. Whether you’re after a quick lunch, planning a party, or stocking your business, we’ve got you covered with options to suit every need.
