Our commitment to quality here at Tetelestai Bakery is paramount, and we are always seeking out the finest ingredients for our baked goods. From local beekeepers, spice-makers, produce farms and beyond, we aim to use the best we can find. Here are just a few examples below.
Locally-Grown and Stone-Milled Flour
We proudly make every cookie that comes out of our kitchen (aside from our Gluten-Free varieties) with Hayden Flour Mills’ White Sonora Blend. Hayden Flour Mills is a local operation in Queen Creek, AZ that partners with their neighbor, Sossaman Farms, to produce an incredible product from start to finish! They take non-GMO ancient heritage grain grown without chemical fertilizers, pesticides or glyphosate, and grind it using a stone mill. This process is much slower and small-batch than commercial steel milling, but leaves the nutrients and all parts of the germ there for consumption. Not only are we passionate about our community and keeping things local, but also about the quality of food we serve. You will TASTE the difference. Guaranteed.
Grassland Butter & Local Danzeisen Dairy
You will NEVER find margarine or mystery ingredients in our doughs or batters. Every product that is mixed up at our bakery is made with cream that comes from our local dairy right here in Phoenix, and pure butter.
ZERO Artificial Dyes
Say goodbye to petroleum-based food colors (so long, Red 40!) and say hello to real FOOD. After extensive research and education, we became acutely aware of the harmful effects of artificial food dyes. Our bakery is committed to sourcing ALL of our ingredients without the use of any artificial dyes. When you see playful color in our baked goods, you can rest assured all that beauty came from nature.
Vital Farms Pasture-Raised Eggs
If there’s one thing you will always find in our refrigerator at home, it is a carton (or two) of pasture-raised eggs. This is a choice for our family not only because of the superior nutrition profile and flavor of pasture-raised eggs, but we love knowing that the hens that produce them are living their best free-roaming life. When it comes to choosing products for our bakery, our standards do not change.
