Wholesome Bakery Expands To Whole Foods

Whole Foods is getting more wholesome. Wholesome Bakery, that is.

Mandy Harper, owner and head baker at Wholesome Bakery, is expanding beyond her La Victoria hub through a new partnership with Whole Foods.

Harper's line of vegan cookies and cupcakes (including the ever-so-popular mint chocolate chip cookie sandwich) can now be found at the week-old Whole Foods Haight Street location, joining the ranks of other current or former mobile vendors and communal kitchen comrade Hapa SF who are also preparing ready-to-eat meals for Whole Foods' Northern California region's Street Eats initiative.

This week, Wholesome's treats are rolling out to Whole Foods Potrero and eventually the rest of the San Francisco locations. Within the next six months, Harper says, they'll be available in 30 Bay Area locations. "We'll see if that's possible, but I'm definitely going to shoot for as many as I can," she says. "I'm starting with all the S.F. stores and will keep going from there."
