The bread that stole the show​

If you’ve ever dined at The Cheesecake Factory, you know the warm, oat-topped bread that arrives before the meal isn’t just a side—it’s a star.

With its soft texture and hint of sweetness, this honey wheat favorite has earned a loyal following, often prompting requests for extra servings before the entrées even hit the table. For some fans, it’s the real reason they show up—cheesecake is just the cherry on top.

Recognizing the bread’s cult status, Bimbo Bakehouse—the bakery behind the scenes—has partnered once again with The Cheesecake Factory to bring this beloved staple to grocery stores.

Building on the success of their earlier releases, they’re expanding the “At Home” collection with two new offerings: Famous Brown Bread Slider Buns and Bakery Buns, crafted to deliver that signature flavor in formats perfect for everyday meals.
