NAVAD Bakers

Guy Hanuka spent years training to be a baker in his native Israel and at Rhode Island’s acclaimed Johnson & Wales University, so when the Coronavirus pandemic hit in early 2020, he did what we all did: he started baking. He perfected recipes for classic Jewish baked goods including challah, babka, and rugelach, and soon ended up with more than he could conceivably eat. So he started selling to friends and family, and two weeks later, NAVAD Bakers was officially born.

NAVAD Bakers has already earned heaps of praise in its Rhode Island community, and has become a hit at local farmers markets. Guy’s baked goods are all made by hand using fresh, high-quality ingredients, and there’s no shortage of fun and creative spins on these Jewish classics, from peanut butter chocolate chip babka to onion & poppy seed challah.
