Whole or broken they taste the same, but buying them broken has some great attributes. You get twice as many pretzels for the same price as the whole. Broken pieces are great for repackaging, sample dishes at bars & restaurants, adding to other recipes, and more! Martin's Pretzels are made from a simple recipe of Flour, Water, Yeast, Salt, and Soda. Since we started making one-of-a-kind pretzels in 1935 they've attracted thousands of customers all across the nation and beyond. We're one of the last bakeries making a handmade pretzel with a stone hearth oven. With no comparison to a commercially made pretzel, we take pride in what we make bringing the handmade artisan pretzel bag to your product line.
