Ebinger's Bakery

Ebinger's was a favorite of Brooklyn residents for many, many years. The first Ebinger's Bakery opened in 1898. However, Ebinger's failed to correctly read market trends and finally was unable to compete with mass produced pastries produced by companies like Entenmann's and sold at low prices in supermarkets. By 1972,the last Ebinger's had closed.

These sites wax nostalgic about Ebinger's:
