Our Story
Since 1986, JTM Foods, LLC, has been producing lush pies and other sweet treats out of our 80,000 square feet, nut-free facility located in Erie, Pennsylvania. Our products are sold throughout North America and are sold under the JJ's Bakery brand name. Every one of our 80 full-time employees is committed to the quality and safety of our products, and that pride shows in every product we make.
Quality
To make sure we're delivering quality pies and crispys, JJ's Bakery utilizes state of the art equipment to examine each and every item to ensure each and every product meets our strict standards. In addition, all JJ's Bakery products are made under the Safe Quality Foods (SQF) Institute guidelines. SQF offers one international standard for use by all sectors of the food industry, from primary production to transport. If a pie or sweet treat doesn't pass the test, it doesn't leave our plant.
