Ann Arbor's Zingerman's Bakehouse, under the iconic Zingerman's brand, celebrates 25 years of business this fall. Its silver anniversary is being commemorated by the release of a cookbook authored by its managing partners, Amy Emberling and Frank Carollo. The cookbook, titled Zingerman's Bakehouse, is scheduled for release by Chronicle Books this October.
Since 1992, the Bakehouse has been dedicated to baking and selling breads and pastries, using traditional methods and world-class ingredients. Zingerman’s Bakehouse serves specialty food stores, cafes, and restaurants in the southeast Michigan area (including Zingerman’s Delicatessen, which uses Bakehouse bread for all of its sandwiches) and has garnered a national fan base ravenous for its famous brownies, sour cream coffee cake, and Jewish rye bread sold through Zingermans.com. Zingerman’s Bakehouse also operates a popular retail shop and BAKE!, a hands-on baking school in Ann Arbor that teaches over 800 classes a year to 7,000 students.
