Baking good
bread for my community.

Sunrise Artisan Bakery is a one-person cottage bakery run out of my home in Minneapolis. I make sourdough and other baked goods every other week.

The baker

Hi, I'm Alejandro.

I've been making sourdough since 2020 but I've always had an interest in cooking and baking. Before opening my business, I kept baking and giving my loaves away, perfecting my craft and learning how to scale. Like many cottage bakers, my friends loved getting my creations and they started asking for ways to buy them. After much deliberation and encouragement, I took the plunge and started Sunrise Artisan Bakery in June 2025 with one goal in mind: Bake really good bread and share it with my community.
I love being able to make goods for you all, meet my neighbors and hear about what you made with my bread! I have been slowly turning my basement into a full micro-bakery, enjoying the process and learning a lot at the same time. Always happy to hear feedback on anything I make and suggestions for future bakes!

What makes my bakery unique

I pride myself on the products I make. My artisanal bread has a deeper, darker crumb than the bright white loaves you might be used to. I try to innovate and bring creative flavors every week, on top of some baked goods from home.

1

Locally sourced, fresh, organic, stone-milled flour

My flour comes from BakersField, a local mill in Northeast Minneapolis. They use a stone-mill & high extraction process, sourcing their grain from small family farms in Minnesota. They never bleach the flour or add any additives, keeping more of the whole grain and preserving its nutrients.

Small batches & handmade

Every loaf and baked good has been mixed, folded, shaped, prepared and baked by myself. You are getting something that I would be proud to put on my own table and share with my loved ones.

Unique & Fun flavors

Every bake, I offer a classic and a fun rotating special. Think roasted garlic rosemary, cinnamon raisin, hazelnut chocolate. I test my flavors constantly through my off weeks, matching the season and bringing variety to my menu.

Cultural roots

Coming from a Peruvian/Puertorican culture that revolves around the love of food and cooking, I enjoy being able to bring a piece of that to Minneapolis. From alfajores, tropical fruit pastries and local baked delicacies, I try to bring my home and heritage to you.

Never miss a bake

Orders open every two weeks and sell out fast. Drop your email and I'll remind you when they're open.
