Brooklyn Boy Bagels is a bagel company based in Sydney, Australia. The company was founded by Michael Shafran, a native of Brooklyn, New York, who sought to bring authentic New York-style bagels to Australia.

History

Brooklyn Boy Bagels was established in 2013 by Michael Shafran. Shafran, who had moved to Sydney, noticed a lack of authentic New York-style bagels in the city. He began by selling his bagels at local markets and quickly gained a following. The success of these market stalls led to the opening of a permanent bakery and café in Marrickville, a suburb of Sydney.

Products

Brooklyn Boy Bagels offers a variety of bagels, including traditional flavors such as plain, sesame, poppy seed, and everything bagels. They also offer specialty bagels like blueberry, cinnamon raisin, and pumpernickel. In addition to bagels, the company sells a range of schmears (cream cheese spreads), sandwiches, and other baked goods.

Production Process

The bagels at Brooklyn Boy Bagels are made using traditional methods. The dough is fermented for 24 hours, then boiled and baked to achieve the characteristic chewy texture and glossy crust of a New York-style bagel. The company prides itself on using high-quality ingredients and maintaining authentic techniques.

Locations

The main bakery and café is located in Marrickville, but Brooklyn Boy Bagels also operates pop-up stalls at various markets around Sydney. They have a strong presence at events and festivals, where they continue to introduce their bagels to a wider audience.

Community Involvement

Brooklyn Boy Bagels is known for its involvement in the local community. They frequently participate in charity events and support local initiatives. The company also offers bagel-making workshops and classes to educate the public about the art of bagel making.
