Bread and Batter Bakery mixes love for baking and family to start new business

After 20 years in the health care industry, Tracey Jones didn't hestitate to participate when daughter-in-law Bailey Jones and Tracey's son proposed a business plan about starting a bakery.

The mother and daughter-in-law duo both had a passion for baking and creating things in the kitchen. But when Bailey and her husband sold their house, the family living together gave the team a little extra income to work with. 

 

 

Earlier this month, the Jones family was finally able to get their ducks in a row, opening Bread and Batter Bakery at 317 US 35 in Winamac. Since opening day on June 10, the bakery has kept a steady flow of customers.

 

From specialty cakes, cookies, coffee, fresh baked bread and more, they provide a little bit of something for everyone. Tracey even specializes in dog treats that include bones, cakes and cupcakes.

Bailey's donuts are also a fan favorite, selling out within two hours after hitting the shelves in the morning.

 

 

Open Wednesday to Friday from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. and Saturday from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m., the family hopes to eventually expand not only hours, but also the menu, once things get settled in. For now, only having family members as employees at the bakery, and Bailey still with a full-time job, the Jones family is taking life as business owners one step at a time.
