The mission of Bread Stuy is to provide a space for local artists, entrepreneurs and the general public to work, share ideas and enjoy the beauty of our neighborhood, Bedford Stuyvesant.

The ultimate goal of Bread Stuy is to provide fresh breads, fine desserts, customized cakes, in addition to gourmet soups, panini sandwiches and other savory items like quiches and potpies all baked onsite in the newly expanded kitchen.

Bread Stuy is also interested in wholesale orders for local businesses as well as catering for your special events and/or meetings. Call us today at (718) 771-0633.

To Friends and Supporters of
The Shops of Lewis Avenue (SoLA):

Oh, what a night! Our 3rd Annual Haunted House Party was a monstrous success! Everyone was there — Kimora Lee Simmons, Britney Spears, Oprah Winfrey, Wendy Williams, Bill Cosby (& his Dirty Laundry), track stars Carl Lewis and Flo-Jo, Milli Vanilli, Lola Felana, Medusa, Josephine Baker, The Prophet of Bed-Stuy, and even two Michael Vicks with ferocious dogs in tow. Indeed, impersonators of well-known people — famous and infamous — were the night’s hits, and a three-way tie for best costume went to Bread Stuy’s Lloyd and Hillary Porter (Carl Lewis and Flo-Jo); Catrin Solis (Britney Spears); and Lol Fow and Sally, who came as “A Box of Crackers.”

Event designer Deborah Young turned the elegant Akwaaba Mansion into a frightfully fun place with spider webs running up walls, gory body parts peeking out of fireplaces and ghosts and tombstones on the lawn. Jamal Reid, aka DJ Trauma, got even the oldest bones rattling on the dance floor, and devilishly delicious eats were provided by area food establishments Bread Stuy, Brook’s Valley, Doctor’s Cave, Heavenly Crumbs, Le Toukouleur, Petit Bassam, Shakoor’s Sweet Tooth, and Tiny Cup. New wine shop Olivino made sure friendly spirits were in the place, while local event planners The Perfect Guest saw to it that every detail was attended to.

The Halloween party is a fundraiser for The Shops of Lewis Avenue’s Annual Fulton Park Holiday Tree Lighting. Much of the party’s earnings came from the Silent Auction, where winning bidders snagged such items as “The Daily Grind,” a free cup of coffee at Bread Stuy every day for a year; “The Get Published Package,” Brownstone Books’ library of books on getting published, along with lunch with a literary agent and dinner with Essence magazine’s Books Editor; and “The Beach Retreat Weekend,” a stay for up to 16 people at the Akwaaba by the Sea Bed and Breakfast in Cape May, N.J.
