what is the “bioengineered” food ingredient in your classic plain wrap?
Our Classic Plain Wraps include corn starch. As an FDA labeling requirement, unless expressly certified by the ingredient supplier, products containing corn starch should include the bio engineered statement. We strive to source ingredients that are sustainable. Crops that are bioengineered are typically done so in the interest of sustainability. Our ingredients are wholesome, and FDA approved for safe and nutritious consumption.
Lately I have not been able to find the whole wheat bagels at Key Supermarkets in Mount Dora nor Apopka. Where else can I find them locally?
Thanks for your comment. According to our store finder, Toufayan Bagels are available in Mt. Plymouth IGA Fresh Market (Sorrento, FL). However, only Classic Plain, Everything, Cinnamon Raisin, and Blueberry Bagels are available there. Please ask your favorite store’s manager to add Toufayan Whole Wheat Bagels to their inventory. Currently, Whole Wheat Bagels aren’t available on Amazon, but when the stock is replenished, you can use this link to buy them online.
Hi there, I am a bakery associate at my local Apple Market. I currently stock blueberry, cinnamon raisin and plain Toufayan bagels. Can you please tell me what the current shelf life is for frozen and ambient temperatures? Thanks!
Thanks for your question. Toufayan Bagels should be kept frozen until displayed. Bagels thaw in 2-3 hours. Code for 15 day shelf life when thawed. The estimated shelf life for frozen products is over eight months.
How can I prepare blueberry bagels? cooking time? where do I cook it? other ingredients to accompany?
Thanks for your question!
Our Bagels are ready to eat. We recommend storing them at room temperature, out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources. If you prefer, you can heat up Toufayan Blueberry Bagels in the toaster, or toaster oven. In our house, we toast them on the medium setting. However, some folks like them lightly toasted and some like them darkly toasted. You can toast bagels without a toaster by using your broiler (1-2 minutes). If you wish to heat them up without toasting, you can set them in a 350° (F) oven for 5-15 minutes (check them after 5 minutes to see if you are happy with the temperature and texture – the longer you cook them, the crispier they will become.
Hello,
You have/had fantastic onion bagels, but I cannot find them anymore. Are you still producing them?
We’re sorry to say that we have discontinued Onion Bagels. Please try our Hearth Baked Everything Bagels.
I love your everything bagels. The store I buy from never has them is there another way I can get them
Thanks for your endorsement! According to our store finder, the nearest store that sells our bagels may be too far for you. You can order them on Amazon. While they’re only available on Amazon as a two-pack, keep in mind that you can freeze unopened packages for up to 8 months.
Are your bagels made on any equipment, or in the same facility, that processes tree nuts?
Thanks for your question Andy. Toufayan bagels do not contain tree nuts and are not processed on equipment that also contains tree nuts, you can enjoy them safely!
I bought a bag of 6 bagels today 25th may and expiry date is 9th june 23. I will be only using it on Sunday 28th may. Do I need to refrigerate it or just keep in room temperature.
Hello Ann, thanks for your question. We don’t recommend refrigerating them. Keep them tighly sealed or unopened and at room temperature. Avoid heat sources (like on top of the fridge or near the toaster oven) and keep them out of direct sunlight.
Do you carry keto blueberry bagels?
We have not yet made any Keto Bagels, however, we’ll be sure to mention your request to our bakers! So far, we have Keto Flatbread, Keto Wraps, and Keto Pita.
Hi if I buy the bagel on 13th oct and the expiry date is 29th oct, should I keep it freezer or fridge? Or can place at room temperature? If cannot finish eating after the expiry date how can I store the bagel? Thanks
Thanks for your question. As with most bread products, we do not recommend that you refrigerate them at all (refrigerators promote condensation and accelerate the expiration process). Store them in tightly sealed packages at room temperature. Keep out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources (such as the top of the fridge). If you do choose to refrigerate our bagels, make sure to remove all air from the packages and seal them as tightly as you can. Unopened and tightly sealed packages can be frozen for up to eight months. Bagels thaw in 2-3 hours at room temperature and their shelf life continues from where it left off before being frozen (i.e., if it is 3 days before the coded date when the bagels are frozen, after defrost, there will be 3 days left).
One of my daughters have an allergy to sesame seeds. We have been buying Hearth Baked Classic Plain Bagels for a number of years. Last week she noticed that the latest package we bought had Sesame aded to both the list of ingredients, as well as ‘Contains’ statement, on the package. The ingredient list for the same product on your web site does not have Sesame, however the ‘Contains’ statement does.
Did anything change in your production process where some amount of sesame was added to the product in response to sesame becoming a mandatory labeled allergen? Or is it just being listed because these bagels are made on the same equipment as Everything Bagels that do have sesame seeds on them?
Thanks for your question, Michael.
We haven’t recently changed the recipe for Classic Plain Hearth Baked Bagels, however, as you suspected, new labeling laws require us to list sesame as an ingredient as well as an allergen because it is processed on equipment that also processes sesame. Please take that into consideration for all Toufayan Bagels. Also, thank you for noticiing that our Classic Plain Bagels ingredients wasn’t up to date on the website, we’ve updated it to match the most recent package. Feel free to comment further if you have any other questions.
One of my kids has sesame allergy and would not eat anything that has or may have sesame seeds. We do not buy any products that are labeled as containing the specific allergens for the obvious reasons. Sadly, this makes any products from your brand not safe for us to buy anymore.
I understand that this is a FASTER Act requirement to label for sesame seeds if they are an ingredient. However would it have been possible to label it as ‘May contain’ or similar? Is the risk of contamination from Everything Bagels so high that it cannot be controlled by using separate production and packaging lines and/or some other methods?
The new labeling regulations don’t allow us to use “may contain” statements any longer. Using a different production line or facility to ensure there is no risk of contamination is unfortunately not possible right now. Toufayan Wraps are sesame-free and are not processed on equipment that also processes sesame.
Where can I buy whole wheat bagels on-line?
Toufayan Whole Wheat Bagels are available on Amazon.
BUY 2 Pack on Amazon
I just bought a package of Everything Bagels from Uncle Steve’s Marketplace in Brooklyn, NY. Today is 12/6/2022 and the date on the bottom sticker says “2-20-23,” which doesn’t seem right. Can you check its batch number for me? It’s “28441 322 4 A 1.” Thank you!
Hello Leo, thanks for checking. The date code for Toufayan Bagels is meant to be applied by the grocer, when they put them on the retail floor. They should have a shelf life of 18 days. The best by date is most likely meant to be 12/20/22. We’ll ask our rep from your region to look into it, but we’d appreciate it if you also mentioned it to your store’s manager the next time you see them.
I just bought your blueberry bagels. Is there any risk of cross contamination with eggs?
Thanks for your question, Taylore! There is no risk of cross-contamination with eggs. Toufayan Blueberry Bagels are not made with eggs and are not processed on equipment that also processes eggs. Check here for the full nutritional information, and enjoy!
Hello. I’ve been buying and enjoying your cinnamon raisin bagels for a long time. Today I read the “CONTAINS BIOENGINEERED FOOD INGREDIENTS” noted on the package. What exactly are the bioengineered food ingredients in the bagels? Thank you.
After checking with our bakers, we can tell you that it is corn products. Corn meal cannot be certified non bio engineered in the product we use. Please feel free to comment further if you have any other questions.
Hi, I wish to ask if the bagels contain food colouring, particularly yellow colour as I have allergy. Thank you.
Toufayan Bagels don’t use any yellow food coloring. Our Blueberry Bagels contain blue #1 lake, blue #2 lake, and red #40 lake. Toufayan Classic Plain, Whole Wheat, Everything, and Cinnamon Raisin Bagels do not contain any food coloring at all.
Follow the links above to find nutritional information about each variety of Hearth Baked Bagels. Always check the product packaging for the latest nutritional information. Food coloring will be listed in the ingredient statement near the nutritional panel.
I LOVE your bagels! I have switched from another brand to yours and quite happy that I did. I get the whole wheat ones for my mom, as she is diabetic and enjoys her bagels. I initially got plain for myself, but then you came out with Hawaiian ones and I was SOLD on them as my all time favorite, then they were gone:( PLEASE bring them back!
Hi. May I know why the cinnamon raisin bagels taste bitter?
Thanks for your question, Lisa. There shouldn’t be any bitter taste in your cinnamon raisin bagels. Some people with really sensitive palettes might detect a bit of sourness in any bagel, from the yeast in the dough. There is also a very mild tanginess from the cinnamon, balancing the tartness from the raisins. It is possible for cinnamon to generate a bitter flavor if it is overcooked.
Are your bagels within the best buy date? How are you heating them?
Hi. I just bought my bagel last week. I cannot find any expiry date on the packaging. Neither printed nor stickers or labels. I steam my bagel. 3 mins. Thanks.
Please tell us about the name and location of the store in which you purchased your bagels. The grocer is intended to apply the date code when they move the bagels to the retail floor. I’m not familiar with the process of steaming the bagels at home, do you bake them above a water bath or on the stove top in a vegetable steamer? Whether it’s better to steam, bake or boil bagels is a common debate among bakers, however, we do recommend toasting or baking bagels to heat up pre-cooked bagels.
Hello! I just bought these and I wanted to know how long do they last if I don’t freeze them? Thank You!
I also wanted to say it didn’t have an expiration date on the package where do I find it?
It’s up to your grocer to apply the date code when they display our products, typically its a sticker added near the front panel of the product. Talk to your store’s manager or let us know what store you shop at if it’s not there.
Thanks for your question, Amari. Toufayan Hearth Baked bagels have a shelf life of 5 to 6 days and should be stored at room temperature, away from direct sunlinght.
I just tried your plain bagels and they are absolutely the best I have found and I have tried so many. Love the texture, not doughy and not like eating regular toast. Nice and crispy when I toast them and I love to spread Veggie cream cheese on top for my breakfast. Can you tell me where near Grinnell Iowa 50112 that I can purchase these? I bought some in Brooklyn, Iowa and even that doesn’t turn up on your search engine. No stores do. Thanks for a great product. I froze mine as bought more than one package and they toast beautifully! I want to buy more locally.
Hello Jackie, thanks for your comment.
We’re sorry, but currently, Toufayan Bagels are not available in Iowa. We are preparing to make them available in our Amazon store, so check back soon for the link. Please ask your favorite grocer to include Toufayan Bagels in their inventory.
Just bought 2 Packs of Your whole wheat bagels. It says,it has 14g of Protein in it. However I cloudnt find any ingredients that where the protein coming from. ?
Hello Elaine, thanks for your question!
The protein in our Hearth Baked Whole Wheat Bagels comes from the wheat. Wheat is a significant source of plant protein.
Enjoy!
Hi,
We just purchased a couple of bags of toufayan bagels this weekend and i just noticed that the expiration date is 11/30/21. Today is 10/18/21, which show these bagels with over a month shelf life? Does this sound right? Does the market place the expiration dates on the bagels or does the manufacturer do this?
The grocer adds the date code when they display our product on the shelf. Hearth Baked Bagels should be coded for a 5-6 day shelf life.
Please note, there is a manufacturer applied code, which represents the batch number and is sometimes mistaken for a date code, but its just a unique number string. The date code should be accompanied by the phrase “use by”, “best before” or similar, and have no numbers before or after the date.
Can you tell us which store in which these were purchased?
I’ve never purchased your brand prior to today, I did a store pick up at our local Banks Market in Paducah KY & this was a substitution item. But I am looking forward to trying it. I see that you state should be eaten or frozen within 5-7 days. The store printed sticker date they put on was Oct 31 which is 18 days from today.(confusing) Should this be stored in the crispness bin of the refrigerator ? I know the brand I usually get have a longer use by dates on it but is cold to the touch & in the refrigerated area of the grocery. Also, it is ODD that neither freezing nor heating instructions are printed on the packaging as others have mentioned. Appreciate answering the questions above. Much thanks.
Hello Donna,
Thanks for your questions and your interest! That 18 day store sticker seems like a mistake to us. Also that you found the bagels in the refrigerator. Our Hearth Baked Bagels are meant to be kept at room temperature. At home, we store them in the bread box, away from heat or direct light. We don’t recommend refrigerating them, but if you do chill any bread product, be sure the package is moisture-free and well-sealed. You may freeze unopened packages for up to 8 months and thaw them at room termperature for about 2-3 hours. After thawing, we recommend using them within the remaining time up to 5-7 days.
We’ll have a representative contact your store to see if we can help. We hope you like the bagels, please feel free to let us know if you have any other questions or comments. Enjoy!
Hearth Baked Classic Plain Bagels (10g of protein), I have had them for a while but have not opened them and they were stored in a room-temperature slightly cooled kitchen… They haven’t seemed to have gone bad or produced a foul odor. I was wondering if the shelf life was different for these?
Hello Jolie, great question!
We instruct our grocers to mark our Hearth Baked Bagels and Mini Bagels wiht a 18 day shelf life. However, depending on how the grocer handles them and how soon they put them on the shelf, there may be a little wiggle room. As with most bread products, if you notice the date code is soon or past, you should inspect them carefully. Your eyes and your nose can confirm if they are still fresh. Look for any discoloration to indicate that they have passed their shelf life. If you freeze the bagels early in their shelf life, you can typically expect to get another 14-15 days out of them after defrost, however, you should inspect them closely before eating or preparing.
Let us know if you have any other questions and enjoy!
Hi,
To reply to your question, the bagels were bought at a local grocer, Maharaja market, in queens ny.
Thanks Donna,
Please ask your grocer to contact us directly if they need help – meanwhile, we’ll see if we can reach them through their distributor.
I have the same problem. I buy these bagels often and they never have an expiration date on them. Mine are purchased at Walmart in Opelousas, La
Good morning, your whole wheat bagles are vegan ?
Thanks for your question!
Yes, our Hearth Baked Whole Wheat Bagels are naturally vegan, in fact all of the varieties of our bagels, Mini Bagels and Smart Bagels are naturally vegan. Enjoy!
Where is the expiration date on the bagles? What is the code meaning on the white tab? This is from Puerto Rico
Hello Ossie,
It’s up to your grocer to add the expiration date when they display the product for sale. Toufayan Hearth Baked Bagels should be coded for a 5-6 day shelf life, and unopened packages may be frozen for up to 8 months (thaw at room temperature for two hours). The code you are referring to is the batch code, which helps us track the distributor and baking facility.
Hola buen día, les escribo desde Panamá, República de Panamá. Centro América. Disfruto de su producto mucho. Que pretendo abrir una cafetería movil con sus bagels como roducto principal. Los adquiero en los supermercados 99 (Empresas Ricamar). Pero no le ponen fachas de compra o de vencimiento para tener idea de la vida del producto.
Gracias Luis, nuestros Hearth Baked Bagels deben codificarse para una vida útil de 5 a 6 días después del descongelamiento.
No dude en contactarnos para ver si podemos enviarle casos directamente.
Hola, saludos desde Puerto Rico. Me encantaban los Whole Wheat Bagels porque tenían muy buena cantidad de proteína con 14g y eran más bajos en azúcar con 3g. En la última compra me percaté que eso cambió, ahora tienen 12g de proteína y 7g de azúcar. En mi caso, debo tomar en cuenta la cantidad de azúcar que consumo. Ya esta marca no me parece buena opción. Espero puedan mejorar en eso..

There is no explanation on the bag what to do with the bagels if you have to bake them or that they are ready to eat by just warming up?
Neither on your website!
Our Hearth Baked Bagels are ready to eat right out of the bag. You can set them in the toaster oven to bake for a few minutes at 350° F to warm them up or toast them to your desired crispiness, warming them up will enhance the flavor.
Enjoy!
I agree – nothing at all! Are you guys aware that people buy them frozen and got no clue what to do with them? Whoever made the decision to not place this information at all got a very bad idea. Very bad “user experience”.
Hi Michael,
Our Hearth Baked Bagels aren’t intended to be sold frozen, however, you can freeze unopened packages for up to 8 months. If you recently purchased our products frozen, we’d love to hear more about where you bought them. Some of our customers like to heat up the bagels in the oven or toaster, my family likes to just eat them out of the bag. How do you prefer to eat Toufayan Hearth Baked Bagels?
I live in Hackensack and this last Thursday I purchased your blueberry bagels. The store name is The Giant Farmer’s Market and apparently they don’t know about the short shelf life of your product. I sadly today was going to eat one and it had started to mold :(. I was very much so looking forward to trying your product and they put a pull date sticker of 08/31/19! Maybe this is the freezer shells life and not the secondary?
Hello Lee,
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. The best-by-date for Toufayan Bagels and Mini Bagles should be 18 days. From frozen, the shelf life is up to 8 months, however, we do not code the cases. We’ll ask one of our quality control staff members to contact your supermarket to ensure this doesn’t happen again.
Hi
Im wondering why all bags of your bagels has no expiration date on the bag. Can you explain why?
I buy the product but i don’t know if is safe.
Hi Eduardo,
Our bagels are shipped with a 18 day shelf life after defrost. The expiration dates are applied by your local grocer. Can you please help us by letting us know where you purchased your Bagels?
Thank You
Hi again
I bought your products in:
Supermercados Pueblo – Arecibo, Puerto Rico
Also on:
Supermercado Selecto – Arecibo, Puerto Rico
Hello Eduardo, thanks for your info. We have reached out to those markets to ensure they are adding date codes as they display the products. Please feel free to comment further if you have any questions.
I found your toufayan whole wheat bagels by accident in a store in stockbridge, ga and really, really loved them. Now, I can’t find them and can’t figure out where I can purchase them .I wish that I had an order form with the bar code on it to see if a can have my store more conveniently order them. It’s hard for me to find a great whole wheat bagel of that quality . Please help me able to purchase them all of the time.
Hi Caeser,
We don’t distribute a lot of bagels in GA, but you should try Winn-Dixie (they usually stock our Smart Bagels), and Publix carries many of our products. Please ask your store manager to contact us to order more Hearth Baked Bagels.
Tried your bagels as an alternative to that other brand. They are great but no raisins in the firs 2 I tried. Shall I send down some?
Hello Lloyd, thanks for trying our Hearth Baked Bagels. We’re sorry to hear there were no raisins. Can you tell us what store sold them to you? We’d love to tell our QC department about your experience.
Thanks again.
Howdy Folks, lately your Cinnamon Raisin Bagels have developed a strange taste and texture. The best way i can describe it is, the dough has a finer texture, much like most Blueberry Bagels have. It’s like the Dough was mixed for the Blueberry and Raisins were added. Almost as if someone tried to save a batch or mixed it by mistake. There is almost no Cinnamon taste to them. When the bag is open they smell Blueberry not Cinnamon. I do like your products and will keep on buying them. Thanks Yall…
Thank you so much for your feedback. We will definitely look into our quality control. It would help if you mention what store you bought them at. In any case, we are grateful for your response.
Hi! I always find your Blueberry bagels in the aisle part of the store, not refrigerated. I always put them in the fridge to make them last longer. Last time they were on the fridge for a long time and the electric outages spoiled it. Can I store the last 3 bagels I have left in the freezer to make them last a bit longer? Thanks
Hello Yami,
At home, I occasionally freeze our bagels and they defrost quite well for us. The key is to chill them first, at least 20 minutes to an hour in the fridge before freezing them. Also, make absolutely sure that they are well sealed with as little air as possible before chilling or freezing. Even a little moisture or condensation can make them become stale very quickly. When you defrost them, leave them at room temperature for a few hours, do not heat them from frozen.
The bagels can remain frozen for up to 3 months if well sealed, but once defrosted you should use them within a day or two.
My name is Patrick from Dominican Republic. I would to know the distributor’s name in my country.
Hello Patrick and thank you for your interest.
Unfortunately we do not currently work with a distributor in your country. If you would like to recommend a local importer or you plan to ask your distributor to contact us, please use our contact page.’
Thanks again.
How to check freshness dates on your Bagels
The code date should be printed by your grocer, sometimes on the bag and sometimes on the twist-lock. Toufayan heath baked bagels are meant to be coded for 18 days after defrost.
Where can I find your bagels? I’ve tried at the locations you have posted but they don’t carry them. I live in Lansing, Illinois near the border of Indiana. Thanks.
Hi Taylor and thank you for your interest.
There aren’t any grocers in your region that carry our bagels, right now.

Hello,
I was looking at purchasing Hearth Baked Classic Plain Wraps, the Everything Smart Bagels, the Hearth Baked Blueberry Bagels and the Hearth Baked Classic Plain Mini Bagels. However I noticed that they all have Mono-and-Diglycerides listed in the ingredients and I was wondering if these are from an animal or vegetable source?
Thanks in advance
Hello RKC and thank you for your interest,
Our bakers assure us that any Mono-and-Diglycerides used in all of our products are purely vegetable-based.
Enjoy it in good health!

Mini Bagels: Processed on equipment that also processes sesame seeds
Enjoy!
how do i know an expiration date for bagels?
Hello Luis,
Your grocer should code Toufayan Bagels with an 18 day shelf life. Different grocers mark their packaging in different ways, you can check with your store’s manager for more details.
Well some store don’t date them at all. So know way to tell, just say they are fresh.
We’d be happy to reach out to your store to discuss date code practices for our products. Just let us know which store.
