Alonso Foods - Hayward

Great food and bakery seen them at famers market always has some of my favorite cookies here and pies always awesome

My family and I have been going to San Mateo College Farmer’s market for a few years and have always enjoyed their peanut butter cookies , passion fruit juices and other yummy breads such as their pumpkin breads! and as always , excellent costumer services , ?

Alonso certainly caught my attention but my initial thoughts were there 's no way they would have anything for a vegan to consume. Welp, I was wrong, and I 'm glad I checked. They actually offer a wonderful slice of Vegan Pumpkin Bread $4.25) that I could not refuse. It was their only vegan friendly option I checked) but given that it was something intentionally made for plant based eaters, I was willing to treat myself just for today. Admittedly I try to avoid added sugars or oil in my everyday life, but if I 'm going to go all out, I may as well purchase it from a local source. What 's the verdict? ...YUM! Vegan or not, this pumpkin bread was amazing! Incredibly moist, fluffy, and just the right amount of sweetness that really made me happy I stopped for one. I wish they had more options but I will certainly take what I can get.

This is not a bakery you can go to to pick up baked goods. It's in an industrial park they do bake but for markets/farmer's markets. The owner informed me of this and when I told her why I was there she ran in and got me a sample. DO LOOK FOR ALONSO BAKERY AT THE SAN LEANDRO FARMER's MARKETS.

Yes this bakery is a true staple at Saturday's bayfair farmer's market. Get there early. They are fully set up by 8:30 am. The extensive savory and sweet options is amazing. The layout is very overwhelming if you are not careful. You may definitely go home with a cart filled with different breads and desserts. What I have always loved is that Alonso is not overly sweet. It is not headache sweet. They are not afraid of sugar but do not use it as the foundation for their baked goods. There are always different options. My personal favorite has been the savory sweets the spinach crisscross pastry is absolutely my favorite. (I think they discontinued it I love the jalapeno bread, the sourdough loaves of bread are all amazing. They do great cheese bread options. The cookies are nice as well. Not dry... good texture. They do not use preservatives so do not think about keeping the goods on your counter for a few days. I will say if you have a book club event, some people coming over grab bread from here. It is so easy to lay out their baked goods in those Lunchable settings that everyone seems to enjoy so much. (Yes, I know they are charcuterie boards. Whatever your reason I say you should grab something from here. You will not be disappointed.
