Houston Bakery Reflects on 2016, a Year of Giving
Houston, Texas (PRWEB) December 20, 2016 -- For the past 68 years, Three Brothers Bakery has been fortunate to serve, meet and develop relationships with countless generous organizations throughout the greater Houston community, a time-honored tradition shaped by the bakery’s giving spirit. This year, the bakery continued their partnerships with charitable organizations like Star of Hope, Susan G. Komen Houston and Camp for All.
For several years, Three Brothers Bakery has donated leftover goods to Star of Hope, a longstanding tradition, which allows the bakery to serve the less fortunate in the Houston community and beyond. This year, the bakery’s established partnership with Star of Hope was recognized on Good Morning America’s Deals and Steals with Tory Johnson. The surprise donation of $10,000 from Vistaprint helped the bakery continue to serve the less fortunate in the Houston community and beyond.
“My dad and his brothers, founding brothers of Three Brothers Bakery and Holocaust survivors, know the struggle of real hunger, and believe no one should be without food. Vistaprint’s generous donation helped us continue our work to feed the homeless in Houston,” said Bobby Jucker, bakery co-owner and fifth generation baker.
This year also marked the fourth year bakery co-owner Janice Jucker has served on the board of Susan G. Komen Houston. She is a 10-year breast cancer survivor and continues to spread the message about breast cancer prevention and treatment. The bakery sold pink-ribbon themed treats in October for Breast Cancer Awareness Month, with a portion of the proceeds going directly to Susan G. Komen Houston.
The bakery also served and donated bakery items to Camp for All’s annual Camp Culinary Challenge event. The organization is committed to creating communities for children and adults living with challenging illnesses.
In 2016, Three Brothers Bakery also worked with organizations such as Celebration Company, The Faulk Foundation, Jewish Family Service, Big Tent Judaism and MD Anderson Cancer Center. The bakery looks forward to serving the Houston community and new and long-time customers alike in 2017.

About Three Brothers Bakery
The traditions of Three Brothers Bakery began in Chrzanow, Poland circa 1825, and were preserved despite the family’s concentration camp imprisonment during the Holocaust. Their miraculous liberation, and subsequent move to Houston, brought Eastern European scratch baking traditions to 4036 S. Braeswood Blvd, 12393 Kingsride Lane, and 4606 Washington Ave. where the owners are now proud to call themselves “memory makers who happen to be bakers.” Perfecting the process for almost 200 years, each day the fifth generation bakers produce mostly dairy-free breads and pastries, cookies, a full line of specialty dessert cakes and pies, as well as custom birthday, special occasion, wedding and groom’s cakes using only the highest quality ingredients.
Three Brothers Bakery has been awarded many accolades over the years including “Best Mail-Order Pies 2012” from Bon Appetit, as well as Modern Baking’s “2013 Retail Bakery of the Year” and was part of The Knot’s “2010-2013 Best of Weddings” and “Hall of Fame” picks. The famed Pecan Pie was named “the best mail order pecan pie America has to offer” by Country Living magazine and the bakery was named one of the 12 best pie shops in America and most recently, named one of the 20 best bakeries in America by The Daily Meal for the third year in a row. Bakery owner, Bobby Jucker competed in the popular ‘Food Network Challenge’ and has been seen on Food Network’s Outrageous Food featuring their Pumpecapple Piecake. The bakery was awarded the 2013 Jeffrey Butland Family-Owned Business of the Year by the Houston division of the U.S. Small Business Administration.
