Two Australians, one bakery, a lot of driving.
COBS Bread
COBS Bread is Bakers Delight, which is the bit that matters if you grew up in Australia. Same company, same recipes, a different name on the awning because “Bakers Delight” was already taken over here.
Everything is baked fresh that morning at the Stamford, Connecticut bakery. Nothing is baked the night before, nothing arrives frozen, and nothing sits around — which is exactly why this works as a drop and not as a shop.
The whole range travels. Cape® Seed, Country Grain, the sourdoughs, the scones, the Cheese Pullapart. If it’s on the shelf in Stamford, it’s on the list here.
America Josh
Josh Pugh moved from Adelaide to New York in 2017, spent the next several years working out how American visas, banks, taxes and health insurance actually function, and wrote it all down so the next person didn’t have to. He became a US citizen in October 2025.
That turned into America Josh — around 75,000 Australians across all fifty states, plus events wherever enough of them live in the same city.
Bread Drop came out of the same place every America Josh project does: somebody asked where to get a decent loaf, and the honest answer was “you can’t.” Now you can, on a Thursday, in Brooklyn.
How a drop works
Pick a drop, build a box, pay up front. Orders close 72 hours before, because that’s when the bakery needs the numbers. Then you collect at the venue inside the window on your drop card — and only inside that window, because we’re standing on a footpath with a van, not running a shop.
