We are officially open!
Wink’s Craft Bakery started the way all the best things do—at home, among friends, with a dream and a warm oven. Baked up in the cozy living room of a growing Hartford home, Wink’s is the creation of three best friends who wanted to share their love for simple, honest baking with their community.
At the heart of it all is Conrad, our Head Baker (with Sous Baker Olivia), whose passion for handcrafted treats and quality ingredients drives everything we do. We’re a small, local bakery with a big love for tradition, making everything from scratch—because good food starts with good roots.
We’re not a big bakery, and we wouldn’t want to be. Wink’s is about slowing down, savoring the little moments, and bringing people together over something delicious.
From our home to yours—welcome to Wink’s Craft Bakery.
Carmen & Olivia
At Wink’s Craft Bakery, we’re more than just a bakery—we’re a dream kneaded, whisked, and baked into reality by folks who love their craft. We pour our passion, creativity, and hard work into every batch, proving that a little flour power goes a long way!

From hand-rolled dough to hand-delivered loaves, we believe in doing things the homemade way—because the best things in life (and in baking) take time, care, and a whole lot of heart.
At Winks Craft Bakery, we’re more than just bread lovers—we’re a small but mighty team with big dreams and even bigger hearts. Together, we're passionate about creating small-batch, high-quality breads (and treats!) that bring warmth to your home—and a smile to your face.
Every great loaf starts with a great vision—and Conrad had just that. With big dreams came big goals, fueled by even bigger ambition. As the heart and hands behind our recipes, Conrad put on his baker’s hat and got to work assembling the dream crew with one simple mission: to bring fresh, affordable bread to the Hartford area—because good bread shouldn’t be complicated. It should be honest, delicious, and made with care.
From crust to crumb, Conrad’s passion is baked into everything we do at Winks Craft Bakery.
Olivia, our multi-talented sous baker, keeps the kitchen running smoothly with ingredient prep, cleaning, and packaging. But her skills don’t stop there—she’s also our Chief Secretary, helping out with business tasks whenever she’s not off literally saving lives at the hospital. She’s a true jack-of-all-trades, and we’re lucky to have her hands (and heart) on deck.
Carmen is the engine behind the scenes. She handles everything from packaging choices and social media to customer support and graphic design. She’s the go-to for logistics, sales, deliveries, and she’s on a mission to make Wink's Craft Bakery the Midwest’s top choice for fresh, homemade bread.
Rooted in Wisconsin pride, we use only the best local ingredients to create our signature baked goods—because homegrown flavors just taste better. Hartford is where we started, and it will always be at the heart of everything we do.
