Craft you can taste, scale you can count on

Golden Ring makes one thing exceptionally well: authentic, kettle-boiled mini bagels — produced with old-world method and modern food-safety discipline.

Our story

A deli method, built for scale

We started with a simple conviction: a mini bagel should taste like a great full-size one, only easier to serve. So we kept the traditional steps that matter — a slow-fermented dough, a rolling boil, a hot hearth bake — and engineered a cold chain around them.

The result is a bagel with real chew and a glossy, blistered crust that arrives frozen and bakes up fresh anywhere in the country. No shortcuts on flavor, no compromise on consistency.

How it’s made

Four steps, the traditional way

01 / Ferment

Slow dough

A cold, slow ferment builds flavor and the signature chew before shaping.

02 / Boil

Kettle bath

Each ring is boiled in a malt-water kettle — the step that makes a bagel a bagel.

03 / Bake

Hearth finish

A hot hearth bake sets the glossy, blistered crust and golden color.

04 / Freeze

Peak freshness

Flash-frozen within the hour and held cold, so freshness travels with the product.
