New York Bakery is currently the number one brand in frozen bread, according to Circana data1.
“Consumers want convenience, but they’re also looking for bold flavor, satisfying textures and foods that can make everyday moments feel a little more special,” said Brett Castle, Vice President of Brand Management at The Marzetti Company. “These new products take what consumers already love about New York Bakery and bring it into exciting new formats—from shareable breads for the dinner table to craveable bites made for snacking and entertaining.”

Baked Bites Bring Bakery-Inspired Flavor to Frozen Snacking
New York Bakery Baked Bites mark the brand’s first product line in the frozen snacks aisle. Oven-baked rather than fried, the bite-sized snacks feature a soft, bread-forward texture and generous, craveable fillings. They are available in two flavors: Garlic & Cheese and Jalapeño Cheddar Cheese.
Designed for snacking, sharing and entertaining, Baked Bites address growing consumer interest in convenient frozen foods that don’t compromise on flavor. They can be prepared in just minutes using an air fryer, giving consumers an easy option for everything from an afternoon snack or meal companion to game-day and party spreads. They also provide up to 8 grams of protein per serving.
Cheesy Focaccia Elevates Pasta Night and Beyond
For consumers seeking a premium bread experience, New York Bakery Cheesy Focaccia introduces an artisan-inspired, pull-apart format designed for sharing.
Available in Italian Herb and Pesto & Garlic, the new Focaccia combines premium oven-baked texture with flavor-forward ingredients like real herbs and cheese. The versatile format complements pasta, soups and salads while also creating new opportunities for entertaining and snacking.
Garlic Bread Loaves Reinvent a Family Favorite
New York Bakery is also introducing a new loaf format of Garlic Bread and Garlic Bread with Real Cheese, giving families a bakery-style take on a familiar classic.
The new loaves feature a soft bakery texture and tear-and-share format that makes them easy to serve around the table. Designed to offer broad family appeal, the loaves bring an elevated yet approachable option to weeknight dinners, gatherings and comforting family meals.
Baked Bites are available in the Frozen Snacks & Appetizers aisle. Cheesy Focaccia and Garlic Bread Loaves can be found in the frozen bread aisle with other New York Bakery favorites. Availability will vary by retailer.
