Happy Mother’s Day from all of us at Proof 💐

We wouldn’t be who we are without moms. First and foremost, we have to give love to our mother dough, Harriet. She is part of everything we do. Sourdough and motherhood really do have many things in common with each other. (Primarily that they take time and effort and are so, so worth it.)

But Harriet isn’t the only mother that’s part of our core here. Our management team at Proof is nearly half composed of moms, and we have moms across our whole team from mixing to markets. Honestly, moms know how to get things done. They care deeply, know how to adapt, and can multitask to a seriously impressive degree. We are all fortunate to benefit from the knowledge and care they bring to us daily.

And of course, all of the moms who visit us across all of our locations! We are so grateful to each and every one of you who trust us to feed your family.

Finally, a little extra love for our beloved , the matriarch of our team here. She leads with so much love and care, and we are all better for knowing her. ♥️

If you want to give some Proof love to the moms in your life, stop by and see us at any of our storefronts! We have a limited number of our Mother’s Day specials left, plus all of your regular favorites. 🥐

After careful thought and a close look at how our days genuinely flow, we’re making a small change to better match how you use our spaces.

Starting Monday 5/11, our satellite locations—Tempe, Downtown Phoenix, and Litchfield Park—will be open from 7am to 4pm.

Our bakehouses at Shea and Mesa will continue to operate from 7am to 7pm, with full-day service as usual.

This change helps us keep things simple and consistent so each location can do what it does best. You’ll still find fresh bread, pastries, coffee, and a warm Proof welcome every morning.

Thank you for understanding and for continuing to make Proof part of your day ❤️
See ya!

Breakfast sandwiches have officially landed at Litchfield Park!

Built on our sourdough English muffin with a soufflé egg, bacon, Gruyère, and Calabrian aioli, it’s simple, filling, and made with the same naturally leavened foundation we care about in everything we bake.

It started as a favorite in Tempe, and now we’re bringing it out west.

Available daily at Litchfield Park. Come early, they move fast!❤️

This Saturday we got to spend the day at surrounded by people who care deeply about bread, fermentation, grain, pastry, and the craft behind all of it.

Jon taught one of the only classes at the event fully focused on naturally leavened croissants and sourdough pastry, with around 20 bakers in the room, from beginners to strong bakery owners. Even though laminated sourdough is impossible to fully cover in one session, it was incredibly rewarding to share knowledge, answer questions, and hopefully inspire more bakers to keep exploring naturally leavened pastry.

We got to reconnect with friends, meet new bakers, judge an incredible bake-off with around 40 beautiful loaves, and spend the weekend talking about real bread with people who genuinely love the craft.

Weekends like this remind us how much knowledge-sharing matters in this industry. A rising tide really does lift all ships. Thank you to connect all of us together!

And if seeing this makes you want to learn with us in person, we still have a few seats left in our upcoming sourdough classes at Proof (Shea location).
We’re not sure yet when the next round will happen, so if you’ve been thinking about it, this is a good time to register!

We just want to say thank you.

Your support means a lot to us, especially through seasons of change. So for one day only, we’re offering something small in return:

Buy 2, get 1 free.

A few notes:
• Bread and pastry apply separately
• Buy 2 breads, get 1 bread free
• Buy 2 pastries, get 1 pastry free
• The lowest priced item is the free item
• You can do both in one transaction, just not mix categories
• In-store only
• Doesn’t apply to seasonal specials or pizza

Thank you for continuing to show up for us, support our team, and make this work possible.
Tomorrow is a Market Day, so please go and shop your favorite vendors!
We’re sorry we won’t be at Gilbert Market tomorrow, and we’d love to welcome you into the bakery instead ♥️

Our Apricot Pistachio Babka is now available on the shelves!

This item is made the same way we approach everything here: 100% sourdough, patience, and simple ingredients but it feels a little more celebratory. It features pistachio frangipane layered through the dough, house-made apricot jam, and is topped with more pistachios. It’s rich yet balanced, making it perfect to share at a table.

We have a few in store today, and there are only two days left to pre-order for Mother’s Day! Last day 5/3.

Shelf life is about a week, but realistically, it doesn’t last that long once it’s opened 🫢

If you’re planning to show someone you care this year, now’s the time! It will stay on the menu until 5/10 only!
