Welcome to Hand Crafted Goodness
We rise to the occasion
Since 2000, Dakota Bakery has been turning out what the Detroit area considers the very best breads available. Our challah was voted "BEST BREAD" by Detroit News and "BEST CHALLAH" by the Jewish News. And Hour Magazine writes that Dakota is "A GREAT PLACE FOR BREAD."
Dakota Bakery is owned by Friendship Circle, a non profit organization that provides assistance and support to 3,000 individuals with special needs and their families by providing recreational, social, educational and vocational programming. In addition to helping those in need, the Friendship Circle enriches its vast network of volunteers by enabling them to reap the rewards of selfless giving.

The bread that become legendary
Our Challah
"Best Challah"
- Jewish News
"Best Bread"
- Detroit News
"A great place for bread..."
- Hour Magazine
We’re passionate about what we make, which is why our ingredients are the best and freshest available. And the care we take comes out of our joy in making and serving great food along with our mission of inclusion.
But our challah is special. In traditional Jewish life—weddings, B’nai Mitzvahs, Shabbats, and holidays— no other food plays such a widely important role. And no one makes a better challah than Dakota Bakery.
Our challah is available in one or two-pound sizes, and for special events we offer challah in 3 to 6 pounds.
Additionally, you can make your child’s Bar or Bat Mitzvah even more memorable by having him or her braid the challah!
