Preorder

Place a Madre Frescas preorder.

Choose any available items, add notes for quantities or pickup timing, and send the request. For catering, custom drink bars, or larger bakery orders, include your event date, guest count, and preferred pickup or delivery window.

Every preorder is reviewed by our team before confirmation so we can plan the bake, prepare fresh aguas frescas, and make sure your order is ready with the right timing. Madre Frescas is built for Austin pickups, weekend plans, office treats, family gatherings, and custom events that need fresh sourdough, naturally sweetened drinks, coffee, and small-batch sweets.

Tell us what you are planning and we will help shape the order around it. A few loaves can cover a family brunch, while aguas frescas and coffee drinks work well for meetings, markets, showers, and backyard celebrations. Larger orders are planned with extra care so the bread, drinks, and sweets are fresh when you need them. For events, include your guest count and any flavor ideas so we can recommend the right mix.

Our story

Two heritages, one table.

Madre Frescas was born from Mexican aguas frescas and Southern Kentucky baking meeting in Austin. One side brings bright fruit, canela, and fresh drinks. The other brings patient dough, home-baked comfort, and the skill of feeding people well.
