Can you bake bread with this yeast?

You could bake bread, however it isn't bread yeast. You can use bread yeast to ferment wine but it isn't as effective. I would use bread yeast for baking bread.

what is the optimum fermentation temperature?

68 degF-72 degF for ale and a lagger is at 50 degF- 54 degF

Does this yeast produce a lot of sulfur odor? or any other flavors/aromas that would make it a no-go for wines and beers? -penny pinching brewer

not at all.Great success Ive had with this one.

is this truely crosby and baker??

Take caution if you order from Home Brew Ohio. They substitute lower quality products. Happened to me twice!! Amazon had to get involved to make it right.
