I figured I could make my own soft-pretzels and after almost two years of research, reaching out to German Master Bakers and befriending a 2nd generation Philly pretzel baker who owns a soft-pretzel bakery in Philadelphia, I have developed a recipe and a process for making an authentic Philly style pretzel, without actually being in Philly.

I make a batch of pretzels for myself, friends and colleagues almost every weekend and everyone tells me how great they taste and that I should sell these.  Well, with some trepidation and hesitation, I am testing the waters to see if there may be an opportunity to go bigger - dare I say retail - and so this website is my attempt to bake and sell soft-pretzels in small batches for local delivery in the Studio City area.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width="1/6"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row margin_top="20" margin_bottom="20"][vc_column css=".vc_custom_1527801326807{border-top-width: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;}"][vc_cta h2="With no formal baking experience I decided that I would make my own pretzels at home because those sugary, so-called “pretzels” sold at the Mall do not cut it." txt_align="center" el_width="lg"][/vc_cta][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width="1/6"][/vc_column][vc_column width="2/3" css=".vc_custom_1527801285657{border-top-width: 15px !important;}"][vc_column_text]West Coast Pretzels operates under a CFO (Cottage Food Operation) Class A permit from the County of Los Angeles Public Health out of my home kitchen in Studio City. Additionally, i have received my ANSI approved food server certificate.

I want to thank you for your support and I hope you love our pretzels. If you have like our pretzels please spread the love and let others know that they too can get Philly style pretzels in Los Angeles.
