5 Generation Bakers was founded in 2009 as a commercial manufacturer of frozen wholesale products. The Baker family has a long history in bread-making, first launching in the mid-1800s in the West End in Pittsburgh. The company’s full history can be found online.
Jenny Lee Swirl Bread is primarily known for their Classic Cinnamon Swirl Bread, also available in Raisin, Apple, Cranberry, Chocolate Chip and Pumpkin. Savory options from the company include Parmesan and Garlic Herb bread, Italian Olive Foccacia, and California Tomato Basil.
Each batch of bread dough is naturally fermented, and sweet breads get a dusting of cinnamon before being rolled and baked in crimp-style pans, then bathed in a homemade butter blend and rolled with cinnamon and sugar.
During the COVID-19 crisis, the free loaves of bread will be available for anyone who is quarantined, practicing social distancing, or is experiencing shortages at their local grocer.
The company’s full line of bread products are available for purchase at their online shop.

Born and raised in Pittsburgh, moved 4 years ago and miss Jenny Lee’s so badly. Would love some of this bread during this time.
