At The Wooden Spoon, we don't rush the process. Our sourdough ferments 48 hours. Our pastries are laminated by hand. Our pantry is stocked with what we'd serve our own families.

From Scratch
Every loaf begins with a wild yeast starter we've cultivated for years. 48-hour cold fermentation develops flavor no shortcut can match.
Our croissants are folded and turned by hand — 27 layers of butter and dough, every single morning. No shortcuts, no machines doing the work.
Our grocery section features only what we trust — small-batch preserves, local honey, artisan cheeses, and staples we'd keep in our own kitchen.
Every item on our shelves is either crafted in-house or selected for the same standard we hold our own kitchen to.
Classic country, olive & rosemary, seeded whole grain — all 48-hour fermented.
Butter croissants, pain au chocolat, cinnamon buns — laminated fresh each morning.
Locally sourced and imported cheeses, cured meats, and accompaniments.
Small-batch jams, local wildflower honey, pickled vegetables, and olive oils.
The Wooden Spoon started with a simple conviction: that Jackson deserves a place where bread isn't just baked, but considered — where every ingredient has a story, and every product on our shelves would earn a spot in our own home.
We opened our doors on King Road with flour on our aprons and nothing to prove but the quality of what we put out. That hasn't changed. Our ovens fire at dawn. Our starters are fed daily. Our suppliers are people we know by name.
Whether you're stopping in for a single croissant or building a pantry for the season, we're here — and we're glad you came.
