• Sigmund’s pretzels is a Bushwick based artisanal soft pretzel bakery founded in 2009. You can find our pretzels on the menus of the best NYC bars and restaurants. During pandemic we opened an online store www.sigmundnyc.com. Now the lovers of pretzels all over the country can have a box of fresh pretzels shipped to their door.
• Throughout the pandemic we became a team of three bakers. As our customers are reopening in NYC we are looking to grow our team back. We expect to grow to a team of six bakers by the end of 2021. 
• Lina Kulchinsky, founder and one of the bakers is an ICE alum of pastry and baking program (class of 2006).
• Our soft pretzels are all natural, hand rolled, baked fresh daily. Our original salted pretzels are great, but we are known more for our flavors like truffle cheddar, churro, garlic parsley, etc

Artistry through repetition!
