The Arizona Bread Company began in 1994 and immediately established itself as the premier bakery/cafe in Scottsdale Arizona.
We are a fast casual artisan bakery offering breads, made from scratch soups, gourmet sandwiches and desserts in an engaging environment and featuring award-winning food. Arizona Bread Company uses only the freshest ingredients using no preservatives, additives, bases or conditioners. Every sandwich is prepared to order so it is served at its freshest. We have evolved into a rather unique niche offering alternatives to traditional fast food concepts.
Arizona Bread has consistently been recognized as the premier
purveyor of quality breads in the Metro Phoenix Area since 1994 as
evidenced by our numerous awards and customer loyalty base.
The FRACTURED PRUNE has been an Ocean City, MD landmark for 30 years. It has been a tradition for many donut lovers far and wide. These donut lovers line up in the early morning, around the block in the anticipation of creating and tasting their own creation.
The FRACTURED PRUNE DONUT SHOPPE is a Specialty shop for donuts. What makes these just so special is the way they are created by you. "You create em, we make em!" Our donuts come out hot and crispy on the outside and light and moist on the inside. We then take the donuts and dip them in any one of our homemade glazes of your choice, which you can top with an assortment of delectable toppings.
These donuts are loved by kids of all ages. There is nothing sweeter than being able to create and have a HOT DONUT at anytime of the day.
Many inquiries have been made to expand our locations, so that the donuts could be more than a tradition for people. They could be an everyday indulgence.
So with great pride, we have decided to franchise. If you are interested in owning what we believe will be the next fastest growing franchise in the coming year, feel free to fill out the Questionnaire.
