Company description

BlissBomb is a NYC dessert and snack brand specializing in baked mini donuts. At 3-4 bites each, BlissBomb donuts are the perfect size for a mini-indulgence. Our customers include large, industry-leading companies in the legal, financial services, real estate, higher education, hospitality, entertainment and technology sectors.

Each donut is hand-crafted by a professional pastry chef using real fruits, nuts, spices and herbs to create full-bodied, evocative flavors. BlissBomb takes donuts beyond breakfast with flavors and designs that are as appropriate for a snack or dessert, as they are for gifting and celebrating.

Overcoming the limited shelf life of a fried donut, BlissBomb baked mini donuts are available for delivery throughout NYC and nationwide with shipping options for gift boxes, catering orders and events.

We’re looking for a part-time/full-time bakery assistant to support our production team from our Midtown/Hell’s Kitchen location.
