As the cooler autumn air settles in, Great Harvest Bread Company in Henderson is gearing up to tantalize taste buds with a bewitching array of Halloween-themed treats. The bakery, known for its wholesome, made-from-scratch breads and sweets, is metamorphosing its offerings to embrace the spooky spirit of the season.
Kim Jacobs, owner and operator of Great Harvest Bread Company in Henderson, shared her excitement about the upcoming Halloween specials. "We will offer spiders, pumpkin bowls, and witches’ fingers made from our breads, along with Halloween-themed sugar cookies, seasonal dips, and more," Jacobs revealed. “The bread spider can be a great centerpiece for a party table. You can even hollow out the body and use it as a dip bowl, and then use the spider legs and witches’ fingers for dipping.”
The bakery's commitment to seasonal flavors is evident in their October lineup. "We focus on a lot of pumpkin-flavored products throughout October – Pumpkin Ohs, Pumpkin Spice bread, Pumpkin Scones, Pumpkin chocolate chip breads," Kim explained. This pumpkin-centric approach perfectly captures the essence of fall.
Great Harvest isn't just stopping at baked goods. They're offering a range of Halloween-themed retail items, including mugs, hot chocolates, and kitchen accessories, allowing customers to bring the Halloween spirit into their homes.
As the holiday approaches, the bakery will introduce special product combos at discounted prices. Among these, the pumpkin bowls are a customer favorite. "They make cute gifts, and they can be used for dinner as soup bowls," Kim noted. For those looking for a more ghoulish treat, the witches' fingers, green-colored breadsticks with an almond "nail," are sure to be a hit.
Great Harvest is also embracing other fall flavors beyond pumpkin. Cornbread, chili, and apple streusel bread are making appearances, along with seasonal jams and pepper jellies in flavors like cinnamon pear and apple butter.
As Halloween draws near, Henderson residents can look forward to adorning their tables with Great Harvest's spooky and delicious creations. Whether it's a pumpkin bowl filled with hearty soup or a platter of witches’ fingers for dipping, these treats promise to make this Halloween a deliciously memorable one.
