Amped Kitchens/L.A. Prep is a new concept in RENTAL wholesale food production space. It is a 56,000-SF facility offering 54 pre-approved wholesale production kitchens for lease to companies who have outgrown the hourly, incubator and home kitchens in which many producers start. By locating at L.A. Prep, growing producers have access to top-quality facilities that are on par with the major contract food manufacturers in the region. At L.A. Prep, smaller local producers can quickly and affordably make items that meet the high standards of top buyers.

The project is the first of its kind in the nation. The sustainable building is an adaptive reuse of a 1940s warehouse complex, one block from the Metro Gold Line's Lincoln/Cypress Station. Amped Kitchens/L.A. Prep is the result of more than two year's work among developers Civic Enterprise; the L.A. County Department of Public Health, which regulates food production; and food business accelerator Food Centricity.

Our Motto: Raising the Tastebar since 2005.

We bake the finest artisanal, all-natural bread and pastry n Southern California. Our passion extends from classic traditional French breads to a full line of pastries and desserts, all infused with a contemporary American flair. Inspired by the Slow Food Movement and independent farmers and craftspeople, Breadbar offers a wide array of breads, pastries and menu items dedicated to the season.

Artisanal bread - bread like ours that is baked by a process of traditional breadcraft - has a stunningly simple core recipe: it consists of nothing more than flour, water, some salt and an agent of fermentation. The "art" of artisanal bread resides in the capacity of the skilled craftsperson to transform these four basic ingredients into an array of glorious breads. This artisanal process requires due time and depends above all on the joint intelligence of the baker's mind and hands. Handmade in California - Hecho a mano in California!
