It all began when my granfather was a bakery in the Air Force service, then in 1968, my grandfather George Sr. Premock purchased Cramer's Bakery the year I was born.  My father Jim Premock and my uncle George Jr. Premock worked alongside my grandfather.  Soon after my granfather passing away, I worked side by side with my father learning how to make, danish, coffee cakes, cookies, brownies, various breads like; butterflake rolls, potato rolls, stollen, cinnamon nut bread, nut bread, cinnamon bread, cinnamon raisin bread, cheese sticks, white bread, wheat bread, dutch crunch bread, cinnamon pull-aparts, beehives, pies, stollen, fruit cakes, custard, icing, etc. The bakery was a full service bakery, making cookies, brownies, muffins, cupcakes, neopoltians, eclairs, cream puffs, whip cream pies, whip cream cakes, donuts, breads, danish, coffee cakes to wedding cakes.

We worked with large bakery equipment like 80 quart mixers, bun divider, cookie cutting machine, pie dough machine, proofing box, and a large rotating oven.

I loved working side by side with my father during my times out of school then before or after my jobs.  All the customers would flock to talk to him, he'd start about 6pm and work till about 6 am.  The family business was labor intensive and required lots of family members and staff.  My grandfather and father took great care of their friends and staff. 

Cramer's Bakery was known for products made from scratch and the Fruit Basket Cake.

All leftovers were given away and donated. 

The business brought people from the San Francisco area and other surrounding areas. 

In 1988 or so the bakery and surrounding businesses burnt up...we rebuilt and remained a huge success, all the customers came back.

When my grandfather was alive and my dad and uncle had the business together, they were open Monday through Saturday and basically operating 24 hours a day.  I have so many fond and wonderful memories.  I remember times that I was so tired, and the only place I could sleep as a child was climbing on top of 50# bags of flour and using aprons to cover me to keep me warm.  In the hot summer months we'd go into the large walk-in freezer to cool off.  Me and my father would listen to music all night long while people would come to socialize. During my younger years one of my younger sisters cut her finger off in the pie dough machine, we had to rush to a hospital for it to be sewed back on. 

Shortly, after my granfather passing, my dad and his brother split up

My dad and I opened "Rosemont Bakery" in 1991 and closed in 1992, due to financial hardship and consumers changing to a convenient grocery store bakery.  When we closed my father went to work for Safeway. 

The Baker's Daughter evolved... knowing the labor and high costs involved in owning a bakery, I wanted to offer the children and adults an opportunity to experience what's involved in creating a product made from scratch to ending with a decorated product to be enjoyed,admired, and proud of using their imagination.

Sometime in the year 20__ my uncle closed up Cramer's Bakery.
