Hi, I’m Dima — baker, grain enthusiast, and currently the hands behind every loaf and cookie. I started Better Bread & Cookies as a microbakery to bring fresh-milled, wholesome baking to our community in Long Beach and beyond.

At Better Bread & Cookies, we believe that everyday foods should be both delicious and thoughtful. Our breads and cookies are baked in small batches with fresh-milled grains and locally sourced ingredients whenever possible.

What Makes Us Different

• Fresh-milled grains → We mill flour from whole grains just before baking, which means better flavor, better nutrition, and a connection to the grain itself.

• Locally minded → From grains, to butter, to olive oil, we’re building relationships within Southern and Central California to keep our ingredients close to home.

• Baked in balance → Our breads and cookies are crafted to be both nourishing and delightful, something you’ll want to share and savor.

Our Promise

We’re more than a bakery. We’re part of a growing movement toward food that’s better for people and better for the planet. Every loaf and cookie is one small step toward that vision.
