Miss Sunbeam on the label has meant freshness and quality to over 3 generations of bread buyers! Little Miss Sunbeam was created by well-known children's book illustrator Ellen Segner in the early 1940's. Little Miss Sunbeam was actually drawn from life, based on a little girl Ellen saw playing in New York City's Washington Square Park. Based upon these drawings, Ms. Segner developed the original oil painting that became the Sunbeam trademark.Sunbeam bread is the perfect choice for your sandwich, French Toast, grilled cheese and many other meal options.
