The ice cream parlor serves hand-dipped sundaes, milkshakes, and cones, and features rich Haägen Dazs and Bassetts ice cream and light Dannon frozen soft-serve yogurt. Bredenbeck's is known locally and nationally for its handmade butter cookies (the widest selection in Philadelphia!), fancy dessert miniatures, special occasion tortes and custom designed wedding cakes.Bredenbeck's comes from a long tradition of fine bakeries in Philadelphia. The original bakery was established by Frederick Robert Bredenbeck, an immigrant baker from Bavaria. He opened his first shop in the Northern Liberties section in 1889. Over the years, the bakery expanded and opened new stores in Germantown, Mt. Airy and Mayfair. Three generations of Bredenbeck's kept the business thriving for over 60 years. In 1954 the Bredenbeck family bequeathed the bakery to Karen Boyd's father and grandfather, Walter and Otto Haug, in deepest appreciation for being loyal employees over the years. Karen Haug Boyd, Walter's daughter, opened up her own bakery in Chestnut Hill in 1983, and has been running a successful business ever since.During the past 23 years, Karen has made every effort to retain the traditional techniques of a scratch bakery while keeping a keen eye on the changing marketplace. Customers all over the country are now able to purchase Bredenbeck's famous handmade cookies and other products on their website, www.bredenbecks.com.
