Our story
A little bakery with a long memory
Golden Crust began in 2012 with a secondhand deck oven, a starter named Bubbles, and a belief Roncesvalles deserved bread worth walking for. Bubbles is still alive. So is the belief.
Everything is mixed, shaped, and baked in the back — no par-baked shortcuts, no frozen croissant dough. When the day's bake is gone, it's gone, which is exactly why neighbours pre-order.

Questions, answered
How does pre-ordering work?
Pick your bake, quantity, pickup date, and a pickup window in the form below. Orders placed by 2 PM are baked overnight and ready the next morning in your chosen window.
What if I order after 2 PM?
Your order joins the following day's bake instead — we'll confirm the new pickup morning at the contact you leave. Walk-in shelves are stocked daily too, while they last.
How far ahead can I order a whole cake?
Vanilla bean layer cakes need two days' notice so we can bake, fill, and hand-pipe yours properly. For weddings and big events, a week is even better.
Do you have gluten-free options?
We bake a small gluten-free loaf on Fridays, available by pre-order only so it never sits around. Please note everything shares one kitchen, so it's not suitable for celiac diners.
What is the day-old shelf?
Any loaf left at 3 PM moves to the day-old shelf at half price. It's still excellent for toast, crumbs, and bread pudding — and it rarely lasts the hour.

Order by 2 PM, ready next morning. Orders placed by 2 PM join tonight's bake and are ready in your pickup window tomorrow. Later orders roll to the following morning — we'll confirm either way.
