Rustic Bakery

Rustic Bakery, Inc. was started on a whim in 2005 by Carol LeValley & Josh Harris. The couple found their passion for baking in a simple sourdough flatbread cracker that Carol would whip up for friends.

In January 2006, Rustic Bakery Inc. showed their wares at the annual Fancy Food Show in San Francisco, where industry buyers discovered the crackers and suddenly every cheese place in America wanted them.

A cracker is simply flour, water, and salt. But Rustic Bakery's have leaven, and rise slowly and ferment like bread, using the same 20-year-old sourdough starter.

The image shows a box of Rustic Bakery Artisan Fruitcake Crisps alongside several slices of the crisps. The packaging features vibrant illustrations of cherries and another yellow fruit, possibly an apricot or peach, surrounded by green leaves. The product name, "Rustic Bakery Artisan Fruitcake Crisps," is printed prominently in elegant, gold-toned lettering. A transparent window on the box reveals the crisps inside, while a circular sticker emphasizes that it is "the perfect accompaniment to fine cheese."
