In-house German bakery vs. grocery bread
Real Bauernbrot, soft pretzels and bratwurst rolls need a bakery, not a plastic bag. Our fresh bakery collection is for crust, chew and the bread you remember from Germany.
Our full bakery case in-store is larger than what we list online. Visit Old World Village in Huntington Beach for the complete daily bake.
Questions about fresh German bakery & bread
What German breads and bakery items can I order online?
Online bakery favorites include German Bauernbrot, farmers bread, Kommissbrot rye, sliced classic rye, soft pretzels, giant pretzels, pretzel rolls, bratwurst rolls, salt sticks (Salzstangen), pound cake and German bread boxes. The in-store bakery case is even larger.
Is the bread baked fresh, or is it shelf-stable grocery bread?
These items are baked in-house from traditional German bakery recipes and made without preservatives. That is why they taste like a European bakery loaf, and why pickup or careful shipping timing matters more than for dry pantry goods.
Can I pick up fresh pretzels and Bauernbrot in Huntington Beach?
Yes. In-store pickup at Old World Village is the best way to get bread and pretzels at peak freshness. Please place bakery pickup orders at least 24 hours in advance so we can bake and prepare your order.
Do you ship German bread and soft pretzels?
Some bakery items can ship, but fresh bread and soft pretzels are perishable and travel best with the right packing and timing. If you are far from Southern California, read the product notes and our shipping page, or choose a bread box built for gifting when available.
What bread should I buy for bratwurst and German sandwiches?
Use bratwurst rolls or pretzel rolls for sausages, Bauernbrot or rye for open-faced German sandwiches, and soft pretzels with mustard as a classic side. Add sausages, Black Forest ham or Butterkäse from the deli collections in the same checkout.
How should I store fresh German bread after it arrives?
Keep loaves in a bread bag or wrapped at room temperature for short-term use. For longer storage, slice and freeze, then toast or warm before serving. Soft pretzels are best the day you get them; reheat briefly to refresh the crust.
