“Hoppy” Easter! Here at Three Brothers Bakery, we love this holiday because of all the colorful, adorable treats we can create to celebrate. Since Easter so frequently aligns with the beginning of spring, it allows us to break out the sunny, bright pastels. We also have quite a bit of fun playing around with the unofficial holiday mascot, the Easter Bunny. There is one festive design we see more and […]
No matter when you come to visit Three Brothers Bakery, you may notice a plentiful selection of our Hamantaschen. These treats are a popular favorite here, but you may find it hard to believe that this is not the case nationwide. We are the very rare American bakery that carries them all year long! Most people only enjoy Hamantaschen around this time of year to celebrate the Jewish holiday of […]
Happy Leap Day! Today is that special, magical day which only occurs every four years in order to realign the calendar with the earth’s rotation around the sun. Since it takes the planet approximately 365 days and 6 hours to complete an orbit, the extra time adds up to a full day every 4 years. What to do with this extra day? We have an idea. Why not leap ahead […]
Happy Go Texan Day! February 26 marks a Houston tradition; the Friday before the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo begins, the city turns back the clock to the days of the Old West to celebrate the heritage of our state. If you are breaking out the cowboy hat and boots to wear to the office, you might as well bring along some Texas-themed treats! But Texan pride runs so deep […]
Happy Presidents’ Day! Though we celebrate the holiday on Monday, February 15, Lincoln’s actual date of birth was the 12 – and Washington’s is not until the 22. Still, we are happy to honor the many great leaders who have held our nation’s highest office. It is hard to believe this year brings us another major national election; it feels like just yesterday that we ran our cookie poll promotion […]
Happy Valentine’s Day! Here at Three Brothers Bakery, we are particularly fond of this holiday since so many people use the day as a chance to express their emotions through sweets. If you need something for a special someone, leave the store-bought chocolates behind and pick up some of the treats made by our team for a more personal, custom touch. Handmade gifts are often some of the most treasured, […]
We are only two weeks in to 2016, and exciting things are already happening! Believe it or not, the official Mardi Gras season actually began last week, on Wednesday, January 6. This traditional kickoff day always coincides with the Feast of the Epiphany or Three Kings’ Day, which are celebrated twelve days after Christmas. (Don’t believe the commercials – the 12 days of Christmas actually take place after the holiday!) […]
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Since Houston rarely provides any snow for the holidays, we have to find other ways to celebrate the joyous winter season. One of our favorite things to do around this time of year is build gingerbread houses. It unleashes our creativity – and the snow made of our icing is definitely much sweeter than what falls from the clouds! In the giving […]
Happy December! It’s hard to believe we have arrived at the last month of 2015. For many, this is a time of stress with the end of the working year and holiday shopping; for others, a time of joy spent with friends and family. But no matter which describes your month, we know some of our seasonal favorite sweets are bound to brighten your celebrations! While we love when our […]
Thanksgiving is a most welcome time of the year because everyone takes the time to slow down and count their blessings. In that spirit, we wanted to take a moment to reflect on the many things we are thankful for at Three Brothers. We are thankful for the safety of our bakery. While we did sustain substantial water damage, we were spared from the worst of the Memorial Day flooding here […]
