Proof Bread’s Thanksgiving Pre-Orders
Order by November 12 | Pick-up November 26–27

If your Thanksgiving love language is carbs, Proof Bread speaks it fluently. Their handmade sourdoughs and pastries are the stuff of legend, and their holiday menu is next-level. Think brioche rolls, maple pecan croissants, apple pies made with stone-milled White Sonoran flour, and cinnamon rolls so good they should come with a warning label.
They’re also baking up sourdough stuffing loaves and centerpiece breads that look almost too pretty to eat — almost. Pre-order now and let the proof be in the pudding (or in this case, the frosting).
