Elmendorf Baking Supplies

About

Elmendorf Baking Supplies is a small Cambridge shop that combines a baking supply store, a cafe and a grain mill. Shelves carry baking tools and equipment, pans, specialty and everyday ingredients, and a selection of cookbooks, plus supplies for pizza, pasta and tacos. The standout is fresh flour milled in house from grain the shop sources itself, which home bakers can buy to take home and which also goes into the pastries served at the cafe.

The cafe pours Barrington Coffee alongside pastries made with the shop’s own flour, so visitors can stop in for a bite as well as to shop for baking gear. The business shares information about its mill and how it sources its grain, and it hosts book events, such as one built around the cookbook Baking with Ancient Grains. Its book selection spans recipe-focused cookbooks as well as titles that read more like travelogues or memoirs.
