The world of artisanal baking has been left in shock following the tragic news of the murder of Jacob Carter, co-founder of the popular Howdy Bagel franchise, during a vacation in New Orleans. The outpouring of support that has followed his untimely passing shows the amount of people he must have impacted.

The Birth of Howdy Bagel

Howdy Bagel, a beacon of the Tacoma, Washington community, was born out of adversity. Carter and his husband, Daniel Blagovich, both found themselves laid off from service jobs in 2020. With time on their hands and a shared passion for baking, they began experimenting with bagel recipes. Their creations quickly gained popularity among friends and family, leading to the establishment of Howdy Bagel.

The couple initially operated as a subscription service and pop-up in West Seattle before relocating to Tacoma. Their bagels, described as a cross between New York and Montreal styles, were hand-rolled, long-fermented, boiled, and baked. The result was a product that was soft and chewy on the inside with a glossy, crispy exterior.

More Than Just a Bakery

Howdy Bagel was more than just a bakery. It became community space in Tacoma. The bakery quickly became a hub for the local community, with customers often queuing for an hour to get their breakfast. The lines that wrapped around the block in the bakery’s early days were a testament to the impact Carter and Blagovich had on their new community in Tacoma.
