Bocce’s was started in a tiny NYC kitchen with a mixer, an oven and a scruffy mutt named Bocce, with the belief that our furry friends deserve better. Better food with fresher, simpler, all-natural ingredients.
Bocce is a scruffy mutt with one crazy hairdo and a tail that won’t stop wagging. At a vet checkup, Bocce was told he was carrying a few extra pounds. Oh my!
When looking at what he was eating, we were shocked by the amount of preservatives and ingredients that we had never heard of in his food… and treats. We decided to make a change. We combined a love of cooking using fresh, seasonal ingredients, with Bocce’s love of biscuits - Bocce's Bakery was born!
We started to bake and bake, and we grew and grew - and now we even bake for cats, too! Our kitchens are now bigger, but our batches are still small and our ingredients are still the best. We are committed to making a change in the pet space by proving that simple is better.
We still believe that better treats are made with better ingredients, that long ingredient lists make no sense, that caring should be simple… oh, and that treating should be fun.
We start each recipe with the highest quality ingredients - think nitrate-free bacon, peanut butter made with only freshly roasted peanuts, antibiotic-free chicken and beef... all sourced in the USA local to our bakeries.
We started in a tiny, NYC kitchen in 2010 - but we still keep our ingredient lists short, our batches small, and our ovens toasty.
Buh-bye bland biscuits and artificially flavored treats, hello Beef Bourguignon, Bac N' Nutty, and Birthday Cake!
Our chopping block includes peanut butter from Teddies, a family owned farm in Massachusetts, chicken from Bell & Evans in Pennsylvania, and organic flour from upstate New York.
