Frequently asked questions
Can I place a preorder?
Sure! We offer a limited preorder menu each week. Order from our most popular items and pick up at your convenience! Preorders can be placed at hotplate.com/spreadtheloaves and open Sunday mornings for the following week. The cut off for preordering is at midnight two days prior to pick up to allow us a full day to prepare your order just for you.
Can you slice the sourdough loaves?
We can slice your preordered loaf! Our slicer cannot keep up with walk-in demand for sliced loaves, so we kindly request that you place a preorder and leave us a note asking for your loaf to be sliced. We recommend taking a loaf home whole and slicing as needed for the best experience.
We don’t use any added preservatives in our loaves so they’ll stay fresh longer if you slice as needed, but freezing the slices keeps them well. Simply pull a slice out and toast it whenever you want one!
We also usually have pre-sliced and frozen loaves available for purchase in our self-serve freezer right inside the door. These loaves are sliced the day they were baked for peak freshness!
Do you have anything gluten free?
We do not. Our bakery is very small and it would be nearly impossible for us to completely prevent cross-contamination. Sometimes gluten-sensitive individuals can tolerate our sourdough loaves since we do a long fermentation, however. We recommend visiting our friends at Sprinkles and Spoons for all of your gluten-free needs!
Are you hiring?
Not at this time, but please keep your eyes on our social media! We may be looking for seasonal help during the holidays and will announce our needs there if so.
