Diljān Bakery
Dining · 1 location · Brooklyn Heights, NYC
Diljān looks like the latest hot Brooklyn bakery, but it's family: two cousins from Astoria's Little Flower Café brought in baker Bryan Ford to build its Afghan pastry menu. All three still work the counter, self-funded with no outside investors.
The Big Picture
Diljān is a family bet: two cousins from an Astoria café team up with an established independent baker to bring Afghan pastries to Brooklyn Heights, funding it themselves. As a single-location bakery open less than a year, it has little public labor, environmental, or sourcing record to weigh yet. The people behind the register are the same people who signed the lease.
