Sweets bring us
together
There is perhaps no aroma more heavenly than that of a freshly baked
loaf, pie or pastry coming out of the oven. Staff of Life has never been
content to just fill our shelves with the standard pre-wrapped & shipped
bread and pastry offerings.



Delicious house-made Treats
While we do stock the highest quality bakery items from several local providers, our in-house bakery takes freshness and flavor to the next level entirely, baking you the most oven-fresh, heartwarming artisanal loaves, and a great variety of delicious cakes, pies, tarts and biscuits.

Did you know?
Staff of Life started as a wholesale bakery in 1969!
Our talented bakers hand make puff pastry, croissant and danish doughs, and pate au choux by hand!
A selection of our pastries would make a perfect addition to any family gathering, breakfast or brunch.

Something for everyone
And you’ll be happy to know that there’s no better place to go in Santa Cruz County for baked items that accommodate a range of specialized diets, including vegan and gluten-free. Stop by our in-house bakery counter today. We’re sure that you’ll be delighted by our unmatched quality, variety, and incredible taste experiences

This place has a more neighborhood market feel, all kinds of kombucha, and I even got a kombucha infused beer. Great bottle brews. Cheeses looked delicious. EV parking spot. Bathrooms are clean. Everyone is nice. GREAT addition to the neighborhood!
