Shipping freshly baked bread presents unique challenges that vary by season. During warmer months, from spring to fall, elevated temperatures can cause bread to develop mold during transit. Additionally, shipping timelines pose logistical difficulties. For instance, orders placed on a Wednesday typically arrive the following Monday or Tuesday, depending on the selected shipping method, with most customers opting for the most economical option.

To ensure optimal freshness, we employ a "rollover shipping" process. Regardless of when an order is placed (Sunday through Saturday), we bake the bread on Sunday, freeze it to preserve quality, and pack it in an insulated shipping box with ice packs for dispatch on Monday. This method helps maintain the bread’s condition during transit.

Shipping and Packaging Costs for Bread Orders

For an order of two loaves of bread, the combined weight, including the bread, insulated packaging, and ice packs, is approximately seven pounds. This weight, along with the specialized packaging required to maintain freshness during transit, contributes to the overall shipping costs. Our priority is to deliver your bread in optimal condition, and we appreciate your understanding of the logistical considerations involved.

To address the high shipping costs associated with this seven-pound package, we have developed alternative packaging solutions to reduce expenses while ensuring freshness and improving sustainability:

1. Lightweight Insulated Packaging

• Description: We have transitioned to using recyclable insulated panels or biodegradable liners, such as those made from eco-friendly materials, in our shipping boxes.
• Benefits:
  • Reduces the overall package weight, lowering shipping costs.
  • Maintains effective thermal insulation to keep bread cool, minimizing reliance on heavier cooling methods like dry ice.
  • Environmentally friendly materials support sustainable practices.

2. Reusable Gel Packs

• Description: We now use lightweight, reusable gel packs designed to maintain cold temperatures more efficiently than traditional ice packs.
• Benefits:
  • Keeps bread within an optimal temperature range to preserve freshness during transit.
  • Lighter weight reduces overall shipping costs compared to dry ice.
  • Reusable design promotes sustainability and potential cost savings you get reusable ice packs. 

Cost Context

Without specialized packaging, shipping costs for two loaves of bread would be significantly higher, ranging from $18 to $120 depending on your location, potentially doubling the cost of the bread itself. Our current insulated packaging and cooling solutions ensure that your bread arrives fresh while keeping shipping costs as low as possible. By implementing lightweight insulated packaging and reusable gel packs, we aim to further reduce these expenses without compromising quality. That is why we charge 50.90 for two loves of bread.

Because we know you are going to choose the cheapest shipping method possible no matter what we say. With the new method of insulated packaging you now can choose ground shipping for your order.

If we didn't provide this packaging you would pay the cost of the two loaves of bread plus the below chart in shipping to ensure you got bread that is fresh.

We remain committed to delivering your bread in the best possible condition and are continuously exploring innovative ways to balance cost, quality, and sustainability. Thank you for your support and understanding of these efforts.
