“I LOVE WHAT I DO AND I AM A TRUE ARTISAN, WORKING MOSTLY MANUALLY, TO GUARANTEE PRODUCTS OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY.”

100% HOMEMADE

All my products are 100% homemade by myself and my team of bakers and pastry chefs. I do not use improvers or other additives in any of my products and this is also true for my flour. I make my bread with homemade liquid sourdough. The sourdough gives a subtle flavour to the bread and increases its conservation time. The rise times are longer, upto 18 and 22 hours, to give the sourdough enough time to do its job: give taste and reduce the quantity of gluten and phytic acid. This is what makes my bread very easy to digest. After that, I bake in my stone deck oven to give the bread a deliciously crunchy crust and stop it from going hard. >> Read more

HIGH QUALITY PRODUCTS

It is true that the way I work may not be the easiest or the quickest way. But this is not what baking is all about. What I want is to make high quality products on a daily basis. As the French saying goes: “Nul pain sans peine.”(No pain, no bread) >> Read more
