Small-batch bakery · Made to order

Good bread takes time. So does everything else we bake.

Slow-fermented loaves, butter-layered pastries and celebration cakes — all baked in small batches. Order at least two days ahead and pick up fresh at the counter.

Every order needs 2 days' notice — the good stuff can't be rushed.
