Our Story
Bloom Baking Company was founded in 2010 with a focus on traditional European baking techniques and a strong connection to the Kansas City community. The bakery was built around the idea that high-quality baked goods should be made from scratch using time-tested recipes and carefully sourced ingredients.
Over the years, Bloom has grown into one of Kansas City’s most recognized artisan bakeries, expanding to additional locations in Overland Park and Kansas City International Airport. Despite that growth, the bakery continues to focus on small-batch baking, daily freshness, and friendly neighborhood service.
Breads and Pastries
Bloom’s bread program includes a variety of artisan loaves baked fresh every day. Popular breads include classic baguettes, brioche, focaccia, honey wheat bread, and jalapeño cheddar sourdough.
The pastry case features European-inspired favorites such as almond croissants, seasonal Danish, scones, puff pastries, and cinnamon rolls on weekends. Each pastry is made using traditional baking methods that emphasize texture, flavor, and freshness.
