One partner. Every format.
From R&D through national distribution, Crestone runs the whole bakery program — so you don't need three suppliers to launch a signature spec.
R&D, Custom Product Development
100s custom bakery programs developed with customer chefs over three decades. Concept through production-ready spec, all inside our own R&D bakery.
Co-Packing & Contract Manufacturing
Contract manufacturing for brands that need scale without building a bakery. We run to your spec, packaging and QA requirements.
Private Label
Private label programs designed with your brand book. Packaging design support, retailer compliance and category development included.
Multi-Facility Replication
Identical products from both bakeries. Same spec, same finished quality, same experience for your operators or shoppers.
Full Program Flexibility
Par-baked, thaw & bake, thaw & serve — often inside the same product family. Match the format to the operator.
National Distribution
Direct routes in SoCal and DFW, plus national frozen distribution through broadline partners and dedicated freight.
Frozen is Fresher.
Every format we run is built around one piece of food science: bread starts staling the moment it leaves the oven. We freeze within five hours of the bake so the loaf your customer eats is closer to fresh than anything trucked in.
Programs Built With
Food safety is the floor, not the ceiling.
Both Crestone bakeries — San Diego, CA and Dallas, TX — are SQF-certified, FDA-registered and operate to HACCP-based preventive control programs. Kosher and non-GMO capabilities are documented and available on request, and both bakeries are 100% sesame-free.
SQF Food Safety Certified
Audited and certified through SGS at both bakeries.
FDA-Registered Facilities
San Diego, CA and Dallas, TX registered with the FDA.
California Processed Food Registration
Full state-level registration for California production.
Texas State Health Certification
Certified under Texas Department of State Health Services.
HACCP-Based Food Safety
Hazard analysis and preventive controls at every step.
Sesame-Free Facilities
Both bakeries are 100% sesame-free; our multigrain is topped with golden flaxseed instead (3x the omega-3s, and prettier).
Non-GMO Capable
Non-GMO ingredients and processing available on request.
The short answer is usually yes.
