Our Story

Baked with intention,
served with soul

Zelaya's Bakery began with a simple conviction: that the best bread, pastries, and coffee deserve nothing less than your full attention. We don't rush the process — our dough proofs slowly, our butter is always cold, and every batch is shaped by hand.

Located on Hardy Street in the heart of Hattiesburg, our bakery is a place where neighbors become regulars, where the smell of fresh sourdough greets you before you even step through the door, and where every loaf tells a story of patience and craft.

Whether you're stopping in for your morning espresso, picking up a weekend sourdough, or ordering a custom cake for something worth celebrating — we're glad you're here.

Ingredients

What We Make

From our oven to
your table

Golden flaky croissants on a marble surface

Buttery Pastries

Flaky, golden croissants; delicate danishes; and seasonal fruit tarts — all laminated by hand with French-style butter, every single morning.

Rustic sourdough bread with a flour-dusted crust

Artisan Breads

Sourdough, ciabatta, whole wheat — each loaf fermented for 24 hours or more, giving you a crust that cracks and a crumb that sings.

Perfectly pulled espresso in a ceramic cup with latte art

Specialty Coffee

Single-origin espressos, velvety lattes, and pour-overs brewed to order. We source beans from roasters who share our obsession with quality.

Elegant custom celebration cake with gold detailing

Custom Cakes

Birthdays, weddings, or just-because moments — we design and bake custom cakes that look as remarkable as they taste.

Assorted artisan desserts on a dark slate platter

Seasonal Desserts

Rotating selections that follow the seasons — from pecan pie in autumn to citrus pavlova in spring. Always fresh, always thoughtful.

Hearty breakfast plate with eggs, bread, and coffee

Breakfast & Light Bites

Start your day right with savory tarts, breakfast sandwiches on our fresh bread, and a side of hospitality that feels like home.
