A New Gourmet Snack Coming Soon!

Yes, YOU are hearing it first! I have been working on an exciting new project since the new year and am happy to say that I am just about ready to launch a new product! Over these past few winter months I have been down and dirty in a little Research & Development. Nearly taking up residence in my test kitchen. The baking, baking and baking has finally paid off. This new product will be available to preview early spring with a full unveiling on May 1st, 2009!

Along with this new product all of the York Harbor Baking Company's gourmet snacks will have a brand new look! Stay tuned to this blog for sneak peeks of the new packaging! Maybe, just maybe I will be sending all my friendly blog followers a FREE preview snack! But you must send me your mailing address to becky@yorkharborbakingcompany to get your Snail Mail Snack. (Plan on snacks being mailed in April.)


Let's Start Thinking Summer In Vacationland!
The York Harbor Baking Company will be heading to the Market! Starting June 7th-Oct. 11, 2009 (9AM-1PM) you can find us at the Gateway Farmer's Market located at the Greater Yorks Region Chamber Visitors Center (Junction of Rt. 1 and I-95: Exit #7). This is very exciting! Here's your chance to meet some of the many farmers, bakers and crafters this coastal area has to offer! Some advice: Come early! The good veggies, baked goods and crafts go fast!
So as the days get longer and nights warmer the York Harbor Baking Company is staying busy preparing to see all of you at Market!

YHBC Has Crossed The Border!





Well, we've done it. The York Harbor Baking Company has crossed state lines and has taken Portsmouth, NH by storm! Store proprietors of Maine-ly New Hampshire, Ken and Deborah Smith, are absolutely wonderful! I couldn't have wished for a better store to represent these table biscuits. Located at 33 Deer Street in Downtown Portsmouth, NH (across from the salt piles and next to the Sheraton Hotel), Maine-ly New Hampshire is Portsmouth's only store that specializes in selling New Hampshire and Maine-made quality products. They offer many unique items like a wide selection of New Hampshire wines, teas and tea accessories from the Portsmouth Tea Company, cook books, children's books, gourmet foods, candles, housewares, and art work. In addition, their store has the honor of being the exclusive retailer of Flag's Hill Tawny Port!
One of the other fabulous things they specialize in is creating beautiful gourmet gift baskets! Whether you are a bride looking for gifts for your guests, a business looking to thank that special client, or a family member that lives far away and misses New England, Maine-ly New Hampshire can come up with a gift that fits your budget and style! Best of all, they carry Josephine's Black Pepper and Fennel Table Biscuits which can be purchased in their store or ordered in a gift basket on line!
Please, check out Maine-ly New Hampshire. It is a beautiful store that supports small businesses like the York Harbor Baking Company. And remember, even if you aren't from New England you can still "buy local" by enjoying all that Maine-ly New Hampshire has to offer!

Have a wonderful holiday season! Wishing you and your family happiness and success in the upcoming new year!

Now You Can Satisfy That Table Biscuit Craving In The Harbor!

I am very happy to say that the York Harbor Inn (480 York Street, York Harbor, ME) is now carrying the York Harbor Baking Company line of products in their gift shop! Stop by the Ship's Cellar Pub or their restaurant, 1637, for a glass of wine, a beer from their Maine-made beer selection, and stay for an incredible dinner! Then visit the front desk and grab a few bags of Table Biscuits on your way out! A great place to meet up with friends after work, relax by their fireplace and listen to some great live music! Check out their website at www.yorkharborinn.com for entertainment schedules, menus, and special events!
Also, the York Harbor Baking Company will be accepting credit cards on line starting next week! Very exciting- so stay tuned!
Did you know that Table Biscuits make GREAT favors at weddings and other social events? Customizable with your special date or event name, adding bags of Black Pepper & Fennel and Parmesan Table Biscuits to guest room hospitality/gift baskets is a wonderful way to share the "local flavor" with out-of-town guests. Visit www.yorkharborbakingcompany.com for more information.
I would also like to offer a big THANK YOU to everyone who has supported and encouraged me taking on this new adventure! It sure is a lot of fun! The gift sets seem be a great hit. As soon as a final design is picked I will post a picture of it on line so everyone can see what they look like. There are a lot of new and exciting things happening! I can't wait to share them with you! Keep checking back! I promise you it will be worth it!

Thanksgiving, Holiday Gatherings and More!





It's hard to believe that it is November already! Autumn is such a wonderful time to be in New England. There is so much change in the air. From gaining that all-important extra hour during the day (did you remember to turn your clocks back Saturday night?) to the changing of the leaves to putting away those summer clothes and airing out all those sweaters.




It is hard to believe, and I hate to even mention it, but Thanksgiving is only one month away leaving Christmas and New Year's not that far behind! What a great way to welcome friends and family into your home than by offering them a glass of wine and serving up some Table Biscuits with cheese and crackers! As I have mentioned, the York Harbor Baking Company's Parmesan Table Biscuits are now being offered at The Marketplace on Rt. 1 in Cape Neddick, ME! You really should stop by and look around. Highly recommended for hostess and holiday gifts. Plus, you will be supporting many local artisans and businesses- like me!




Perfect for holiday gatherings, corporate gift giving, hostess gifts and cocktail parties!


For the holiday season only, YHBC will be offering specially packaged table biscuits for mail order. Four bags of table biscuits (two black pepper and fennel and two parmesan) beautifully wrapped and presented for gift giving for only $19.99, plus shipping and handling. Straight from York Harbor to your door! Who wouldn't want a little bit of Maine to arrive on their door step? Email becky@yorkharborbakingcompany.com or call 207-641-9522 for ordering information.




Would You Like Gourmet Table Biscuits To Arrive At Your Doorstep- Free?!

Do You Have A Favorite Store You'd Like To See YHBC In?


If you know of a store that you think would be great to partner with and carry these gourmet biscuits, let me know! If the York Harbor Baking Company gets a new account based on your recommendation, I will personally send you a wonderful gift basket as a token of my appreciation!
Until next time!
