Fresh Treats From
Cookies To Cakes
The Egypt Star bakery has been a local landmark since the 1930s. The original company, called Star Bakery, was located in Egypt, PA. Unfortunately, the building was lost to a fire. Consequently, this prompted the owners to purchase The Star Baking Company in Allentown. It was then that the two companies were joined to bring what we know as The Egypt Star Bakery.
Since then, the Egypt Star Bakery has been family owned and operated local bakery for over eighty years. To this end, we employ neighbors, friends, and their family members! So, stop by our local bakery to get the freshest bakery and patisserie goods. In addition, we offer delicious breads, cookies, cakes and so much more! We’ll see you there! In short, Egypt Star Bakery is the best options for custom local bakery.

Traditions Then & Now
During Egypt Star Bakery’s early years, we’ve sent out drivers with our delectable bulk baked goods for door-to-door delivery. While we no longer offer that service, several of the original concepts of our business remain. We use only brick ovens operated by gas, coal, and oil. In fact, most of the ovens we use have been with us since we first opened our doors!
Evolution of Our Local Bakery
As demographics have shifted in the Lehigh Valley so has our customer base as we have added new customers with different tastes. We are also fortunate to have many local businesses sell our product or use it to make theirs. Our local bakery continues to strive to produce high quality, popular bakery items to please both the wonderful customers we’ve known for many years and those we add every day.
We thank each of you for choosing to do business with us because without our loyal customers we would not have enjoyed all these years of business.
