One thing I didn’t expect when starting my cottage bakery was how much my kids would want to be involved (even my teenagers!) They never touch the dough, but they do help label and load up, and sometimes come help me at markets. Working with them has been really fun, and teaches them to work hard! And yes, they are compensated fairly ☺️

The rumors are true- we are moving. I am devastated, to say the least, to leave my customer base here. I will never be able to adequately explain how much your support of my small business here in Connecticut meant to me. You all showed up EVERY TIME. Every market. Every pop up. Every bread drop. Every class. Every weekend. Every holiday. Other businesses took chances partnering with me, and I am so grateful. You guys made me believe I could have it all, staying at home with my kids while living out my bakery dreams. My last weekend of the farmstand being open in CT will be Memorial Day weekend.

I will miss Connecticut so much. We’ve been here for 10+ years, and I started my business here 2.5 years ago. We are headed south to Virginia, so if you’re in Loudon or Fairfax County- please reach out and let’s connect!!! It will take me a few months to get my family settled, but once I get new licensing in Virginia I will start up HBB again. Lovettsville, VA get ready for the bread lady to move into town! 🥖🥖🥖

Join me at the Simsbury library next Tuesday, May 5, at 6:30pm to learn all about owning a home business! I’ll go over the process of turning your hobby into a real business, and what the state of Connecticut requires you to do. It’s probably not as complicated as you think! Maybe there will be some sourdough involved too 😏

Hi! 👋🏼If you’ve come to the Honey Bear Breads farmstand or a porch pickup, I’m the lady behind the bread! I’m Helen, the baker and owner of Honey Bear Breads LLC. I’m a local Simsbury mom of 5 kids who has always loved to bake. I began baking bread regularly about a decade ago to feed my army of children and marathon training husband, but I took the plunge in October 2023 to get my cottage food license and sell bread in the Farmington Valley right from my home! Over the last 2.5 years, I have met so many amazing people in the community, made big purchases to increase production, created a beginners sourdough class and presentation from scratch, and continuously put myself out there in front of strangers and friends all in the name of delicious baked goods!

I am not being dramatic when I say that this cottage home bakery has changed my life, and that is all thanks to my customers and students. Every purchase, recommendation, and compliment truly means so much to me. From the bottom of my heart, thank you!!!! 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼

What more would you like to see here on our corner of the internet? More sourdough tips? Bread pictures? Class dates? Let me know!

Stitching and tucking in my pink valentines sourdough loaves for their cold ferment! Who else is obsessed with the Olympics?! My daughters and I have been so invested in the ice dancing and figure skating, and always the downhill skiing and half pipe snowboarding! The team events are so fun this year too!

What a weekend for the farm stand! 🥖🏈 Thank you everyone who braved the extreme cold and wind to grab bread for the Super Bowl! There is literally no better way to deal with the cold than a warm cozy cinnamon bun (don’t worry, my daughter only helped with the family only items that weren’t for sale. Sometimes I bake for my family too 🤣🤗)

I will be posting my Valentines menu later tonight or tomorrow so stay tuned! Lots of pink coming 🩷🩷

PSA please be careful coming to the farmstand this weekend! Despite me shoveling the snow, it looks like snow has been plowed and packed down right by it.

I do love this trend- I think you have to be slightly unhinged and stubborn to start a small business. 🙋🏻‍♀️

This is your reminder that SOURDOUGH IS NOT A FLAVOR. It is just a way of leavening baked goods. The wild yeast and fermentation can create a sour flavor, but it’s dependent on the baker and how long they let the bread ferment. Sourdough cookies/cinnamon rolls/sweet breads are not sour, unless the baker purposely flavors them that way (a lot of store bought sourdoughs have vinegar and flavoring added to them), or lets them ferment for a long time making them more sour. The sourdough starter makes your cookies/cinnamon rolls etc extra fluffy and delicious!

🏈 Boston cream pie sourdough for our New England Patriots in the superbowl this weekend! It’s a custard flavored sourdough with melty chocolate throughout. Trust me, you have to try it!

This weekend I will have lots of classic sourdough loaves, sourdough focaccia, Patriots colored funfetti cookies, cinnamon buns and Boston cream pie sourdough bread for the Super Bowl. Don’t hate me, I was raised a Seahawks fan, but I know my audience 😏

Bridgerton music for my student last night who named her sourdough starter Lady WhistleDOUGH. 👏👏👏

Sourdough 101 Class yesterday with EIGHTEEN of you!!! I got home last night overwhelmed that in the last 2 weeks I have taught 35 of you how to make sourdough bread. I keep thinking you all will get sick of me, but you keep SHOWING UP! 🥹 As a stay-at-home mom for the last 14 years, I can’t even tell you how much it means to me that people sign up to take my classes and buy my bread. Both my classes and my bread farmstand have been SOLD OUT lately and I am so touched and really can’t believe it. Being a mom to my 5 kids is still my favorite job, but having this small business to myself has meant so much to me. Truly, thank you!!! Sorry for being sappy, but I just love you guys and your support. 🩷

If you couldn’t sign up for this class before it filled up, I’ll be back again in February at the Lucky Gut! Reach out to me if you’re interested in a private class.

I dug out the breadstand from the snowstorm and restocked with sourdough focaccia (mini and large), sourdough classic artisan loaves, freshly milled honey wheat sandwich loaves, dehydrated sourdough starter with instructions, and freshly milled wheat flour bags. Friday and Saturday there will be all of this PLUS cinnamon buns and sourdough oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. Next weekend I’m stocking up for the Super Bowl so be on the look out for Patriots and football inspired bakes!

Our sourdough focaccia has been having a moment lately and for good reason! It has simple ingredients (just water, flour, salt and olive oil), and is crispy on the outside but fluffy and airy on the inside. I top them with some thyme, rosemary, and flaky @maldonsalt . Plus, it’s sourdough so it’s gut healthy 🤗 These will be stocked in the farmstand again this weekend!

I’m teaching another sourdough class this Friday at The Lucky Gut that is already full, but I’ve got another one there on February 27! Link is in my bio.

I teach private classes too if you want to inquire about that- DM me!
