Our Story
Founded by Desdemona Dalia, this family-owned business emerged from a deep desire to explore a new path when her youngest child began pre-school. After attending college and achieving success in the corporate world, Desdemona reached a turning point when she started a family. The corporate landscape no longer resonated with her; she yearned for a more profound sense of purpose. Uncertain of the exact path ahead, what remained crystal clear was her conviction to create something more significant than herself, something that would not only fulfill her but also benefit her family.
It was during this journey of self-discovery that Broad Street Dough Co. was born. The name itself embodies Desdemona’s mission to redefine the word “broad,” transforming it from a negative connotation into a celebration of hardworking and powerful women. Today, Broad Street Dough Co. stands as a testament to her dedication, showcasing delicious doughnuts that reflect her passion, family values, and a commitment to empowering women.
Meet Our Founder
Desdemona was raised in a New Jersey, Italian household, where she quickly learned the importance of fresh ingredients. This understanding became an integral aspect of her upbringing and greatly influenced her passion for doughnuts. She saw doughnuts not just as a sweet treat, but as a canvas for culinary creativity, a way to infuse her cherished family values into every bite, and a means to share her love for quality ingredients with the world.
