Sander's Kosher Bake Shoppe was founded in Brooklyn in 1959. Two generations later, the Sander family opened a second location in Monsey in 2018, bringing the same recipes, the same ovens, and the same early-morning schedule.
In 2022, New York State recognized Sander's with the Empire Award for decades of service to the kosher community, the kind of recognition that's earned one customer at a time, not applied for.
What the awards don't capture is how the counter actually works: customers greeted by name, a fresh tray coming out every few minutes, and a staff that treats every order, from a single rugelach to a Bar Mitzvah cake, like it's the only one that matters.
