A great sandwich is only as good as the bread it ’ s served between . The same goes for burgers , sliders , and hot dogs – in fact , bread and baked goods can make or break a meal .
One business that truly recognizes the importance of baked goods is Klosterman Baking Company ( Klosterman ). With a history spanning 131 years , Klosterman prides itself on consistent quality , reliable delivery service , and unparalleled customer support .
Klosterman Baking Company was family owned and operated for 130 years .
