Our Bakery

Restaurant-style bread in the comfort of your home. Our breads are par-baked. You just pop them in the oven to finish and enjoy the aromas and flavors of fresh baked artisanal bread.

In 1920, Harry B. Hemstrought crafted his famous Halfmoon recipe in what began as a small bakery on Genesee St. in Utica, New York. Hemstrought’s highly sought-after secret recipe has been passed down by our bakers for generations. Each Halfmoon is crafted with the perfect mix of smooth chocolate fudge and buttercream frosting atop a soft ‘cake-like’ cookie bottom for a unique texture with an irresistible taste.
